If I move all my S1's to Eligius, do I just use one public address for all of them?
Seems to be the way to go.
Please let me know, kind of tired of Ghash always going down.
Thanks
Rob
Yep. I moved everything to Eligius for now. Payout seems the same to me as Ghash. Funny thing, but I have 10 Antminer U1's connected to Minepeon, and when I changed the pool from Ghash to Eligius, the hash speed went up. Don't know why, but I get about another 5 or 6 GHS now. Or at least that's what Minepeon is saying.
Anyway, to answer your question, you just need a single Bitcoin address for all of the S1's. With Eligius, you can use the same Bitcoin address for all of your devices. You can create a new address to keep things separate, or just use your default Bitcoin address. Load the address as the username in the S1's (no password). For the pool, use: stratum+tcp://stratum.mining.eligius.st:3334
The S1 does give you an option for up to 3 pools, but I don't use that.
I only use one at a time. It takes all of 20 seconds to log in and change the pool to something else if there's a problem. But to each his own.
the problem of not having a fall back pool is if you can not access your miners or don't know the pool went down you must connect manually when the miner would just do it itself with little to no loss of hashing. But as you say to each his own.
