Zvi, can you release an extranonce version for the SP10.

I used the SP20 version from Nicehash on my SP30's and it works fine, but it doesn't want to run on the SP10.

+1

Zvi that would be good please (Tig thanks for the tip that the SP20 version works on the SP30s) ... I wasn't prepared to try it .. but thought about it, having hosted machines gets complicated at times ... if they brick.

My pleasure, I wasn't sure so tried it out on my local ones first and then on my hosted ones.

BTW, most of the instructions in the readme can be ignored.

1. Stop Miner
2. cp /etc/bin/cgminer /etc/bin/cgminer.orig.4.7.0
3. WinSCP the new version from the zip
4. Start miner.

A function that is still missing with the last firmwares; is a proper 'start' of the ASICs that failed tests below a known temperature.

With the last firmwares the 3 ASICs of the same loop are disabled, and they are never turned on; We must disable the troublesome one, and wait for the temperature to rise.

We are in winter; Have you a fix for this issue?

Thank you for the post. Please also email support@ to have the firmware enhancement request tracked.

The following is probably the most professional modular / container build I've seen in the industry (disclaimer: we didn't test it yet)
The only reservation I have is the price.

Video tour: CryptoKube video tour
Brochure: CryptoKube brochure
Site: http://www.cryptokube.com/
Contact: info@kubedata.com

The options that can be added would include:

Monitoring and management - KubeOS to monitor all servers and infrastructure with alerting and device management
Environmental monitoring - door sensors, temperature, humidity, dew point, airflow, smoke alarm, water sensors
Automation - fully automated fan control based on temperature feedback to minimize power usage and adjust to environmental conditions.
Remote Power cycle of PDUs
Supplemental cooling - evaporative cooling unit bolts on in front of filters for locations with ambient temperature above 30C
Firewall
Automatic Transfer Switch - to switch between two different power feeds
Novec 1230 fire suppression system
Security Cameras
Security Card access control - Extra trackable security on each door
VESDA fire detection system - Early warning industrial fire detection

All of these options would feed back into the KubeOS system and can all be monitored, graphed, and alerted on threshold breaches.  The system also has two way communication and is capable of basic management of devices in the data center like remote power cycling, turning lights on and off, unlocking doors remotely or adjusting fan speeds.

anyone can design them, it's rolling up your sleeves and building the bugger that takes effort.

Looks pretty nice although I would have to say the datatank is still my favorite.

Speaking of which, did you ever get to test any rockerbox miners with 2 phase IC?

We shipped SP30 to AC, it got messed up in shipping. We can ship another one if Alex will ask us.

Edit: We have customers that use grcooling solution.

I ordered Dec 17, 2014 6x SP20     (order #3798 #3797)
Paid the same day  with EU transfer.

Order status is still unfulfilled.

Can I get them before Christmas

Good chance. We'll ship upon confirming the funds in the account.
Please contact sales@

And they haven't posted pics so we can drool over their setup? What's wrong with them?

Nope. I didn't see it either.

Bank transfers are very slow and typically take a couple of days to complete.

Next time pay with Bitcoin, which is a far superior and almost instantaneous international payment method, and Spondoolies will ship within 24 hours...

Hey there,

I have kind of a funny story.

I ordered the 15 SP20 deal from the website and paid for it on the 5th.
Figured I'd saved bunch of money from the shipping.
I got a notice that it was shipped on the 10th.

From there it made it from Israel to Italy and Belgium on the 11th.
On the 12th, it went through London, UK and
on the 13th it left there, and made it to New York, NY on the 14th.

So far, so good.

From there:
14th,  arrived at DHL's hub in Cincinnati, OH
15th, Clearance event, Cincinnati, OH
16th, Customs status updated, Cincinnati, OH
17th, Clearance event, Cincinnati, OH
18th, Customs status updated, Cincinnati, OH

I got a call from someone at DHL, who said they needed some information (for customs, ostensibly).
I furnished the requested information, and the rep said I'd get it the next day (today).
Now, I got an email from the Phoenix, AZ office that it will probably be held up for 'customs' for 4-5 days

I ordered (and paid for) it on the 5th, and I MIGHT get it in time to be an unexpected Christmas gift.

I think that it is fairly typical for a large shipment to be delayed in customs by a week or so.
15 miners are probably deemed a commercial quantity.

Obviously, this is so in your country.
We have SEPA- Single Euro Payments Area.   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_Euro_Payments_Area

The money was in their account that same day.
Branch address:
Česká spořitelna, a.s.

And I've already sent a letter sales@
They have not even been able to answer my letter of December 4, not to mention the last letter.

Really? Ok, let's say the 1st 5 day long delay for customs was justified...
Why would they need another multi-day delay for customs again in the same country?

  because they think you are a drug dealer out to launder  money.

 IE:  large purchase.  my 5 shipped 1 at a time each generated a lot of paperwork and all were under 1000 usd.   once you import items to the usa over 2500 they get a lot of attention.  I so wanted to grab that deal but as a small importer of overseas goods was afraid what happened to you would happen to me.

This is a USA governement issue.  And they cost you the entire nice/west hash 3-5x payment which in your case  was more then 7 extra coins.

Doh!
OK, so next time, go for the 'worse' (on paper) deal?... 
How long did yours take to get to you, might I ask?

all orders were 3 to 4 days  once they shipped.   let me double check.
