I'm in the Netherlands. It happens on both firefox and chrome, and on my phone via 3G as well.

Server not found

Firefox can't find the server at www.spondoolies-tech.com.

Who is your ISP? (you are welcome to PM me with that as well)

Thanks.

Hi Spondoolies, can you create a customer account page so we can keep track of out orders?

We're using Shopify e-commerce platform, we'll check if it's possible.
You can always drop as email to info@spondoolies-tech.com and we'll reply promptly.

We found it's possible, will enable it soon.

Thanks, checking with Shopify.

It's appreciated to see a vendor making an effort - good job: 3.5 / 5

They are off to a decent start. Let's see if they can follow through and deliver on time. They can't beat Bitmain's prices, so they really need to deliver on time. Any delay will be catastrophic to profitability.

• a bigger PSU,

A 1KW 1U PSU is already rather insane, 1.2KW is the max they can go up to but its a long wait.

I have no problem in buying one later from them or by myself. It's the only component which you can replace it right away if something fails and considering that you want as much as downtime as you can get i don't think you can go wrong with that.

Be careful what you wish for

There are a few 12v fixed or adjustable voltage 1600 and 2500 W 1U PSUs.

Sunpower even makes a 3600 W 1U horrifyingly enough (RKP-6K1U-12).

Its not true 1U though as its full depth, still nightmareish: http://www.sunpower-uk.com/public/ranges/pdfs%5Cr1662%5Cr1662_1.pdf

I'm interested to know the progress.... are we on track with the shipment target?

Question to the community:
For SP30 it's too late (we're too deep into the design) but for future miners, is LCD with Hashrate / Temperature / IP / other status desirable ?
If so, what data to display ?

Would it drop efficiency?

If not then things to display would be everything in cgminer + temps

Hashrate/%HW/%Rejects
Temperature of each board
psu temp/load
IP/internet status up/down

No it isnt.....

Most miners dont stare at their miners. They're usually in a room or hosting facility where the webpanel control is being used 100% of the time.

I think LCD is just a gimmick.... waste of time and labour to build.


Please focus on 3 things:
1) price (as its a full on race compared to other vendors)
2) efficiency & cooling & design form factor (you're on a right track, altho i prefer abit better in cooling)
3) FW and management software

I think LCD is not necessary, as long as data from webinterface is traceable to a specific miner (I don't think people will really use it, it's more a gimmick). What could be good though, is a bright red flashing led for when the miner is not performing as it should. This way you have a warning sign even when you just walk by the miners. Like many servers have for things like HDD failure.

As seriouscoin said:

Only after you are very very satisfied with those 3 then you can start thinking about the LCD even if i think that a LED version is easier and much cheaper than the LCD. When considering a LCD first you need to not burden the miner in any way. And for stats i find that Hashrate / Temperature / IP are enough for me.(i assume you will see 0 hashrate if internet is down so we got that covered there and for temperature maybe 2-5 points of measure are better than just a single temperature).
