Did any of you guys get a coupon? If so for how much? Are they still transferable?
Im curious because I didn't order anything from this last batch I wouldn't know.
If the coupon was good enough I might consider a few S15 or T15 miners I guess.
Are they still grilling you for your personal info just to place an order?

65 dollar coupons and Know your customer is in effect. I do not want my passport info in their hands.

Was hoping for $230 coupons given that's the max they can accept for the DR5 and S11.

Yea, reason I don't shop personally with huge companies as much as possible. Anything I need I just ask them here to get it for me. We have some buyers who pay more in shipping just so the deliveries are routed through us and not directly to them. Even a little buffer goes I a long way I suppose.

Has anyone seen any detailed specs on the S15's PSU? 127/220 is a common industrial voltage output from 3 phase service in many parts of the world, but we run our farm on US 3 Phase WYE service which gives us native 208v. It's doesn't appear that the new BitMain gear is being designed for the US market, but I'm thinking perhaps the input voltage specs may actually be a little more flexible than what's being shown. Any who, reworking the farms supply panel or adding boosters for this gear would make it cost prohibitive, as if it isn't already. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Maybe some one more knowledgeable will chime in shortly.

When something claims '220v input' it is implied that the standard range of 200-250v is acceptable. If not then the rating should read '220v MUST be used' with strong emphasis on that. That said, being Bitmain it still is a reasonable question to directly ask them.

Haven't seen anything yet. Looking back some orders from the China site should have shipped by the 10th of December.
I'm not positive on the earliest ship date outside of China, or if anyone on the forum placed an order. It would be nice to see a unit and find out if matches the advertised performance, because then this would be the most efficient hardware available. (S15)

The email I got extolling the wonderfullness of the $230 coupon I received for buying the first batch said shipping will be from Dec20 to Dec31, a little later than originally promised. The coupon is nice, however I just bought back the coin I used when I bought the miner at BTC>$6000 and therefore only paid ~$700 for the miner plus shipping. Seems resonable... ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Edit - MFB you are correct. Checked my original purchase confirmation and indeed it's late December. At least I still made a killing on the BTC buyback! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

I purchased my T15 from Amazon last Thursday. It arrived Monday.
Good job getting your hands on it a little early that way. Can you post a screenshot of the miner status, and maybe a pic or 2 of the miner? It would be nice to see it in action and confirm they have something close to spec hitting the market.

The S15 seems to work as advertised, however there doesn't seem to be a way to SSH into it. The dropbear daemon is there but it is set to not allow connections. Does the T15 allow for SSH? After it got up to speed it was using 18V, but was using 20V until it started. The S15 also seems to use cgminer and not bmminer as previous miners use. Good job getting your hands on it a little early that way.

The S15 images look identical to Swisher828's T15 images.

Just got shipping notice for my S15. Just within the promised ship dates, too! As soon as it hits the ice mines on Hoth we'll see how it does.

It would be interesting to test out the S15 and see the performance, but I'm not sure if I want to buy one... VRobb, please keep us updated on your S15 results. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

PassthePopcorn posted some results from their miner in the Competitive hardware thread, I just haven't had the chance to update it.
So far it looks like a good buy if you've set up KYC with Bitmain. Especially if you have higher power costs as they are so far showing great options for efficiency for both of the miners.
Obviously it's a small sample but well see as more if them arrive
