One question darkfriend77,
is there any option to remove usb hub, psu and the controller and reduce the price?
Thanks
I'm also interested in this with shipping from EU to Poland including taxes. Could You estimate the price? |

Ok ...
I can't tell you any price right now for Batch 3 ... I need to wait for Batch 2 ... also
I did change some stuff for Batch 2 ... like replacing the controller ... and I first need to see
How it works out ... what I can say is it will be a little cheaper then Batch 2.

If I understood correctly we have to wait until You can send batch 2 to the people (1 week approximately)?

There are some minor issues with the product itself (noisy fans, shitty controller, shitty PSUs)
can you elaborate on the shitty PSUs? I'm a bit worried by fire hazards. |

Ok ok, maybe shitty is too strong.. But I don't like them. They are noisy for *no* reason.. In LTC mode they supply like 40 W each, and for that they spin up and down fan rpm from minute to minute, that's really annoying and makes no sense to me. But fire hazard is the main reason why I replace them. Dunno, maybe it's more psychological, but to me they don't look too trustworthy with all this free wiring and stuff. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong, but I'm not gonna find out for the sake of a couple of $'s (for which you get a decent 12V source)  |

i'm wondering if that usb hub usable and stable, for example, not outputting ridiculous voltages to your controller equipment (Pi or whatever)? or is it shitty as well and need to be replaced?
i guess usb hub is one of the most important components to provide good stability and smooth operation these devices.
i own couple of such industrial psus. these aren't really that shitty at all. voltages are as pretty stable and the quality is reliable enough. of course, these aren't meant for open area installation like your average pc toys..

It's a standard 10 port usb hub, I'm using 5 of them over the last month and there wasn't any issue ... In my opinion the usb hub is more then fine ... |

Did I gave you a lightningasic controller? ... that would have been a mistake ... then ... the wiibox controller in chinese ... would have been the right one ^^ ... rasp for sure is ... a much better choice. |

Ah nice ... hmmm ... after my SCRIPTA dead locked the day you picked your miner up (demo effect) ... I did a clean wheezy image with only cgminer ... on the rasp and since then it's stable ... but I might move back to SCRIPTA .. then ... |
