StrongU STU-U8 Pro , U6, & U8. DO NOT PREORDER

[fccs]

I would advise no one preordering this miner.  StrongU is doing terrible in delivering to customers this year.  I as well as many others are STILL waiting for 1st batch July delivery from the U6, and no one I know has heard anything about shipments from original U8.  Yet.. they are now taking orders for a "NEW" improved model of the u8 already.  What a joke..  If anyone has gotten a u6 or u8 from StrongU can we please post here?  I repeat again, I advise anyone against preordering this new model as no models from the orders they took in spring have shipped yet.

Thank you for this info.  I hope that you come to a good resolution on this.

Many people on discord are in same boat, I just don't want new people seeing this miner on top profitability charts and trying to preorder when they have yet to deliver the last 2 models.  U6 I ordered in March/Aprilish due for 1st batch July.  We are now in september, still nothing (Most likely mining for themselves until profits drop more).  U8 I was going to order around same time but was sold out until November batch, thankfull I missed that boat now though.  Neither miners have been delivered anywhere to anyone.

I don't believe they are a scam company, as people have used strongu miners before plenty of times, but they bit off more than they can chew and don't want to refund the customers for this extreme delay.  Very bad business from this company.  Def. DO NOT preorder any miners they produce.

bumping this.  Going to make sure everyone is aware about this shithole company as much as I can.  All of us are STILL waiting for the u6 and u8.  Now It's officially October.

[fccs]

Bumping again.  New news is saying the U6 now, isn't even the specs they promised.  It will be 2500-2700w instead of 1300w.  This company is a joke and a FRAUD.  Stay away.  Please bump this so more people don't get scammed.  Order a ferrari, get a toyota I guess is there motto.

Still bumping, still deeming this a fraud company.

Question: Where did you purchase the miner from, which website?  I kept an eye on this miner for a couple months now and still waiting to see the reviews from anyone if they had received it, apparently none.  I'm keeping a watch on this post to see any updates, haven't bit the bullet yet on purchasing this miner yet.  Any recommendations?  I'm new and trying to get into mining soon, I was thinking of this miner because the X11 algo., I believe more currency will use this type of algo. in the future.

I got it through my reseller.  No one has received them yet as I have said at least 3 times above this is on the verge of a scam miner.  DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY.  The new thing is it's apparently FALSE specs that they FAILED to deliver.  Now it's RUMORED to be 440gh at 2200w.  So, not what myself or others have preordered in April.  Again, I will repeat...  DO NOT BUY FROM STRONGU  This company is borderline fraud and scam as of lately.  They bit off more than they can chew and wound up stealing chips from other companies just to build their miners to have something to ship to customers months later.  They essentially took chipsets from fusionsilicon and are making it there own just overclocked at this point.

Update:  Have seen proof of the u6 running.  It is 2000w at 440-460gh.  This is literally the definition of bait and switch scam.  No where near the specs we ordered.  This is becoming a joke. 55% more power draw and 35% less hash rate than what we ordered is utterly unacceptable.  Not even talking about the 4 month delay.

Has anyone received their STU-U^ machines yet?  I ordered a few for September, still waiting.

So they claim

Rated Hashrate
660G±8%
Consumption
1300W±10%

and in reality from 500Mh/w it dropped to around ~ 200?
Their site shows sold out and no price, how much did you pay for it?

The good part is that based on what I'm seeing you would still be able to make some profit even with those specs...if they do deliver.

Checking their miners, hmmmm
STU-U8 Pro  60Th/s 2800W  $800.00
Antminer S17e  64TH/s 2880W  $2784.00

Far too good to be true!

Because it is. Where are you getting the $800 price from as I'm pretty sure it must be a scam site. The official site is https://strongu.com.cn/

I got mine first week of november actually.  The miner itself at least for me (I have been hearing it's very different for other people and specs are way different) has been good and reliable.  I am getting 500-520gh avg at 1900w.  No clue why as others are getting less than advertised gh and more power use.  The miner itself is alright.  The company is horrendous and I would avoid ever buying from strongu in the future.

You were the one screaming that the rate dropped by and the consumption increased, now you're wondering why people aren't getting what was advertised?

You're getting 25% less hash rate and 50% more power consumption.

Really no clue why now suddenly you're happy with your miner.

StrongU is a Scamer and a FRAUD. It offered one miner and deliver other of much less capacity and way more inefficient. Stay away from StrongU. I preordered from them and no way to get my money back. SCAM!!!
