Regarding GB shipping: Got a somewhat cryptic email from Spond that items are being shipped by OTHER (??) at 3am Dec 25. Did not get anything since then (36 hr), no AWB, nothing else. Does SPTech actually ship on Thu, Fri? I understand that on Thu DHL/FEDEX were probably closed, but today?

I'll appreciate a bit of holiday spirit.
Merry Christmas SP-Tech, may Jesus bless you and your family. Such a wonderful time of year. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fvictorpicarra.files.wordpress.com%2F2010%2F12%2Fjesus-christ-dans-les-airs.jpg&t=665&c=Y6X63P2A-AXuYA) This is a joke? Hes ..... opposite of Christian. I hate it when ppl keep forcing their religion shit on others without knowing shit. I witness ppl say merry Christmas to a clearly Muslim couple. Fcking grind my gear.

I'm still trying to understand why people are still buying miners , granted these prices are great but these machines will still have a hard time getting ROI.
a single SP20 makes less than $4 per day after electricty (assuming $10 cents /kWh)
Granted i will not turn off the machines I have right now (2 sp20s and 1 SP30) but the SP20s were purchased using compensation from issues with the sp30
What do you guys know that I don't ?
How would you even consider purchasing 15 sp20s at ~8k and then another $2k in PSU's all for 24TH and the joy of having to manage 15 boxes lol ?!
If anything its a better deal to buy an SP35 and at least you know you get the PSU's and around the power of 4 sp20s for under 3k ?
*** edit the sp35 is not a good deal actually its only 5.5 TH **** i though it was 6.5
makes me sad that hardware has peaked right now. I wired up my basement with 3 30AMP circuits have nice cooling and everything but there is zero reason for me to buy any hardware at this point. 3700 Watts for 5.5 TH seems excessive.
I see why the sp20s are a better deal far more efficient but these things are far from fire and forget, i spent at least 2-3 hours baby sitting these boxes every day sometimes more and I'd be dammed if I want to spend that kind of time managing 5-10 lol
Even with free electricity its almost impossible to break even on new hardware, hence selling from stock. If it could make you a little money on the side they would be out of stock already. Manufacturer's have a real hard time lowering prices to a drop bottom price because they've had it so good lately and are use to the premium prices. Doesn't matter if it is 10TH/s rig or 10GH/s rig. Then on some of the home products you still need to buy additional hardware like a power supply. And for the users that bought hardware anyway, they may have purchased on coin they made with their current setup and think they'll still make more after BTC rises. Unlikely though. I bought a couple of the "cheaper" brands that are cooled by water with my dad basically for fun, and sometimes they work great and sometimes they don't. The only rig that has been solid as a rock is my SP10, which will be turning off very soon since I can't run it at my house and it isn't making enough to pay for co-location costs. I'll have 2 SP10's for sale probably pretty soon. I need my garage for my cars and I really can't run that at home because of the noise. Happy New Year!

SP20 - $659 1.7TH/s Shipping - $119 Power Supply $200 (decent one) Total $978 I just want to know how its done. Even lowering the price to $500 doesn't give you your return. I'm just trying to be more green. And my girlfriend has me on this kick of powering off everything. The more miners sold, the more electricity and larger electric foot print the mining community will have. Maybe I will go green one day, try to do my part in making our only planet livable for our grandchildren. But trying to plug in some numbers, seeing how nothing gives you anything back for what you pay for, why do it? Please tell me I've made an error somewhere. And not some $20 error. I want to justify in my head on the electricity use, so maybe I can bring that back to my girlfriend and she'll start to agree. All she sees is a bunch of electricity sucking hardware all over and a high electric bill. And of course a tripped breaker when she wants to dry her hair or vacuum. What is wrong with the below screen grab? Is it really all about free electricity? https://tradeblock.com/mining/a/f56Tst2NSu7ARxAcen6VCS![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fphotopiks.com%2FSP20.jpg&t=665&c=Wo6OjGXBrsjGEQ)

was gonna say your price was to low my figures were 544 usd (to usa) on the above...but just looked the xmas price page seems to be gone it is back at $659.00 w/o shipping again it seems www.spondoolies-tech.comwhat makes it even worse is your power consumption is not 500 watts as your calc shows but but 1200 watts according to their spec sheet and you have to buy a PSU (1250w?) I think to run this (unless you have one) http://www.spondoolies-tech.com/products/holiday-special-sp20-jackson-shipping-from-stockit is too bad I owe these folks a purchase of some kiind for a refund they gave me (they did not need to ...offered I accepted) but man at 15c kwh around here and on top of that a 100 amp service (have 1350w Titan) could not probably swing the dual electric at this time even it if did make sense (estimate is 2.5K to upgrade to 200 amp service) so still fence sitting still waiting maybe after the first of the year....but dang tough to buy equip from anyone vs buyng BTC these days ..even thou imho www.spondoolies-tech.com is going way beyond the call of duty on price etc imho...but everyone in BTC land is trapped it seems by $320 BTC price and such ..and heck it may even go lower...(probably not what they expected when they farmed in their price per unit costs when the sp20 was designed around first of the year or whatever) so anyway they can only go so low imho tough climate out there in the BTC universe edit: additional well for those interested Roadstress's Group Buy link on the spondoolies page for 1000 usd for two sp20's still seems to be valid for those in better circumstances elec/$$$ and such then myself at this time http://www.spondoolies-tech.com/products/roadstresss-sp20-special-holiday-gb

Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

Couple that with 0.06 cents per KWh winter power costs and the fact that I already have power supplies laying around and purchasing these units makes total sense in my situation. Besides, this is just a hobby for me. My goal is to provide hash power and just not lose my shirt doing it.

I used the GB price of $500 although it's MOQ of 2. One should be able to find a buddy somewhere around to co-order one of these packs and get the nice price. If you do have to order something, why don't you order it for somebody else and get some BTC instead. How much do you have to spend? it is too bad I owe these folks a purchase of some kiind for a refund they gave me (they did not need to ...offered I accepted) but man at 15c kwh around here and on top of that a 100 amp service (have 1350w Titan) could not probably swing the dual electric at this time even it if did make sense (estimate is 2.5K to upgrade to 200 amp service) so still fence sitting still waiting maybe after the first of the year....but dang tough to buy equip from anyone vs buyng BTC these days ..even thou imho www.spondoolies-tech.com is going way beyond the call of duty on price etc imho...but everyone in BTC land is trapped it seems by $320 BTC price and such ..and heck it may even go lower...(probably not what they expected when they farmed in their price per unit costs when the sp20 was designed around first of the year or whatever) so anyway they can only go so low imho tough climate out there in the BTC universe edit: additional well for those interested Roadstress's Group Buy link on the spondoolies page for 1000 usd for two sp20's still seems to be valid for those in better circumstances elec/$$$ and such then myself at this time http://www.spondoolies-tech.com/products/roadstresss-sp20-special-holiday-gb

Can you post your settings; I'm drawing just over 900w Your draw will depend on your power supply, it's efficiency and a little bit on your specific unit. YMMV but here are my settings: Start Voltage = 0.665 Max Voltage: 0.67 Max Watts = 200 Fan Speed = 50% There is some variance per unit but these are the settings I start with and adjust in 5mV increments from there until I get in the neighborhood of 1.3TH/s plus or minus a little bit. For my units, these settings I start with usually put me in the neighborhood of 1.3TH/s. Once I do that, I adjust fan speed down from 80% until I get to an area where a majority of the ASIC temps can still stay around 85C. Two or three will usually be a little bit higher, say around 100C.

If you host at our datacenter, we can supply customized PSUs suitable for the SP20. We mod server power supplies by soldering PCIE cables onto their 12V rails. The server PSUs, are over 90% efficient, and are designed for continuous use. We can supply one PSU suitable for an SP20 for $100. See our website here: http://www.asicspace.com/
