Still no trust ratings on the OP. Without reading for 7 pages, can someone tell me if this thing is legit? If it is, I will buy some. If it's up in the air, I'll buy some using escrow.
Check out my ebay and amazon ratings. Also, I think many people have already received an asic from me

I found an old 1 amp 12V power cord - does anyone know if 1 amp is enough for scrypt only mode?

Scrypt only would be fine so long as they do in fact hash at 7 watts as advertised. As a single miner without a controller you can not disable dual mode so that 1Amp supply will not work.

If I buy a stand alone single unit or two, is there anything else I will be needing?
Does a standard USB port/wall adapter power these?
It can only do SHA-256 with the controller? or is that going to be fixed soon so that units without the controller can do SHA-256 as well?

I'm in for the 10 pack from Zoomhash. Plan to drive over and pick them up tomorrow (Friday) if I can get the deal completed. Tried to get it done today but they must be swamped. Will post pictures after I get them home and working...maybe even a video. Will get another 10 next week if everything works out. Offered to directly transfer BTC in person

A controller can control up to 15? Is that right? Any pictures of controllers?

RIGHT NOW, they will only mine scrypt without the controller but they power up all cores and run at full power (again, without the controller). Std USB port will work but its got to be a single digit port (CPUMiner does not support double digit port numbers). A wall adapter would work but it needs to be 5AMPs or greater PER miner until they figure out how to turn off the BTC cores. You can probably run these things off of solar power with the BTC cores turned off! LOL!

10 is a safe number.

You can probably run these things off of solar power with the BTC cores turned off! LOL!  They will however mine scrypt @ ~9w if run them on a linux machine with the gridseed cpuminer -- https://github.com/gridseed/usb-miner/tree/master/software/cpuminerI had mine sitting on a table next to a GPU rig, got frustrated the setup on controller didnt work right for me, plugged the USB hub into the GPU rig, downloaded/compile cpminer, seems to work fine, stable so far around 300kh/unit. I had one running off a single PS and put my KillaWatt on it and it showed 9.0 - 9.1w while mining scrypt and finding blocks. I probably did something stupid/wrong on my the controller setup, will report back when / if I get it working. With more of these out in the field and the code on github, I'd expect that someone will put together some decent, clean control software. If you read some threads from other people selling, there are various issues with the speed, stability, and even malware with some of what people are getting.
