IN STOCK - OneStringMiner boards, up to 39GH/s last ITEMS: from US$15...FUN!!!

[BenTuras]

Fire still hot?

Our school might be interested in one or two of the last DIY units Ben so the students can do some assembly and running of miners for altcoins. My FPGAs blew a gasket in 2013 so need something cheap and easy the students and work with if you have any left.

How about if I send you 10 boards that are either broken or not hashing the minimum 25GH/s that I sell them for ?
Just bare boards, so it's really SDIY (students do it yourself)

Drop me a PM / Email. I think I have to check our budget for this first but ya that is fun... trying to make em work. We will be mining alts and solo etc for practice. Setting up wallets etc. So what I can afford. I will not need them asap as we are off till August 18th.

The idea was to give them to your school for free, just the shipment cost...

That be nice Ben... but we can work something out. We will cover shipping of course.

OK, I am looking forward to your "bid"

[BenTuras]

Because some people still ask me to make them an offer, here it is:

If you order at least 10 of a mix (or 10 the same) of the products below, these are the prices a piece including shipment:

Product		#boards		GH/s		outside EU price in $		price including VAT inside EU		price excluding VAT for business owners
DIY		1		25+		$69.99		€62.91		€51.99
DIY0		1		25+		$74.99		€67.75		€55.99
DIY1		1		30+		$84.99		€76.22		€62.99
DIY2		2		60+		$159.99		€142.76		€117.99

These prices are the lowest I can go for small 10 piece orders.
This is already below my cost price, don't expect any lower prices any day soon.
Payment in BTC, I use https://bitpay.com/bitcoin-exchange-rates
Bank transfer is possible, but takes longer.

FedEx is handling the shipment.
In exceptional cases I might have to charge you extra to pay part of the shipment cost.

Please keep in mind that the heat sinks are heavy so the shipment cost(included in the prices above) is higher.

You can still make me an offer for bigger amounts.
But please, don't bid 1 BTC for 40 sets, that's a waste of time.

Mr Turas are there any of these left?

Mr Turas are there any of these left?

Good day mr. Taugeran. Yes, I have DIY, DIY0, DIY1 and DIY2 in stock.

[BenTuras]

It's a nice sunny day here in Holland, so I am in a good mood and lowered the prices.
Still too much for people looking for a quick ROI, but good for people in it for the long run with these power sipping boards.

If you order at least 10 of a mix (or 10 the same) of the products below, these are the prices a piece including shipment:

Product		#boards		GH/s		outside EU price in $		price including VAT inside EU		price excluding VAT for business owners
DIY		1		25+		$59.99		€53.64		€44.33
DIY0		1		25+		$64.99		€58.11		€48.03
DIY1		1		30+		$74.99		€67.05		€55.42
DIY2		2		60+		$139.99		€125.18		€103.45

If paid in BTC(https://bitpay.com/bitcoin-exchange-rates) we ship the same or next business day.
Bank transfer is possible, but takes longer.

Just want to share my opinion about these boards; they rock! Got a DIY1 and DIY2 for about two weeks and i'm very happy with them. Best mining investment i've done so far. Very stable, quiet, easy to assemble and the build quality is really high.

One little question; does anybody know the cgminer config setting or parameter to control the fan speed? It is very quiet, but i believe it still can miss a couple of RPM's

Thanks for your compliments. The fan is not speed controlled, the hardware has no circuitry for it. If you want the fan to spin slower, buy a fan with a lower rpm spec.

can you point me in the direction of the  latest FW for these guys and a manual to update. I have 5 boards total and am migrating to bfgminer. It can detect all 5 but three of them present a very long timeout that prevents them from initializing.

I dont know if its differences in FW since they may be from different batches by looking at the serial numbers.

Code:

 [2014-07-25 12:32:38]  bi•fury by c-scape (driver=bifury; procs=2; serial=14140f3e0211c51; path=/dev/ttyACM3)

so it seems that the first two boards are recognized fine, and with the additional parameters, the operate excellent at ~30Ghash; but the other three( from a single subsequent purchase) timeout on detection.

Code:

Note that unless the firmware issues were fixed (your 2 working ones look to be buggy still), you'll still need the workarounds in README.ASIC.

i dont mind the bug workarounds. i just want them to start hashing

can you point me in the direction of the  latest FW for these guys and a manual to update. I have 5 boards total and am migrating to bfgminer. It can detect all 5 but three of them present a very long timeout that prevents them from initializing.

It might be a better idea to copy the firmware of one of the two boards that work ok and write that to the 3 other boards.
Get a separate PC/laptop(or disconnect everything) and connect the USB cable to one of the two 'good' boards.

1. short the ISP pins/holes on the board
2. apply power to the board or short the reset pins/holes on the board for a moment if you already connected the power
3. the board should present itself to your OS as a storage device, containing 1 file: firmware.bin.
4. copy this file to your local disk as a binary file
5. disconnect the board and get one of the three boards
6. connect the USB cable
7. short the ISP pins/holes on the board
8. apply power to the board or short the reset pins/holes on the board for a moment if you already connected the power
9. the board should present itself to your OS as a storage device, containing 1 file: firmware.bin.
10. now comes the tricky part: you need to overwrite firmware.bin with the firmware.bin you saved
problem is, the file is 32kB and there is only 32kB available. So you need to overwrite the file in place. The delete/remove command is not supported by the disk device driver.
I use Linux and this is the command I use:

mcopy -o -i /dev/disk/by-id/usb-NXP_LPC1XXX_IFLASH_ISP-0:0 firmware.bin ::;umount /dev/disk/by-id/usb-NXP_LPC1XXX_IFLASH_ISP-0:0

I dont know if its differences in FW since they may be from different batches by looking at the serial numbers.

All boards sold are from the same batch with the same design.

i thank ye good sir.

alas they must run on cgminer for one more evening and hopefully this fixes them( nothing against cgminer, i just prefer the device management style of bfgminer)

I know you said you don't want to use cgminer but just an fyi on something I found with my stack of OSM and it would be interesting to see if you have seen the same, these perform differently depending on the cgminer version (same PI, USB hub, cables, PSU).
Example: Debian with cgminer 4.3.4 sees the boards as MXF 10x DIY1 run at +-275, but Peon with cgminer 4.0.4 sees these as BXF 10x DIY1 run at +-310, power usage is 267 at the wall.

I have been very happy with my setup and Ben has some first class service.

thanks for the heads up achtung. for example: the ones that will start in bfgminer hash at 30-32G @12V

I need one board. Does anybody in US have it for sale?

[BFL87]

Hi Benturas i want to buy a DIY2 set, power consumpion is about 50W? Did you have one of it?
