Any reason why you want usb miners? I have an old Nanofury NF1 2GH/s usb miner somewhere if you're interested. Problem is that these are so underpowered now it wont be worth having your pc on to run it, or even 100 of them.

I can sell you an S1 for 0.2 + postage and throw in the Nanofury for free if you want it.

S1 runs standard at 180GH/s. You will however need a minimum 450w / 500w quality psu to run it. Mine have been run off Corsair and Antec / Seasonic psu's which I've found are very reliable. You should be able to pick a used one from ebay for about £25 / £30.

sadly im not really interested in S1's there a pig on power and per Watt are worse than most USB miner which people dont seem to realize
plus i just like the little Usb miners they dont take up much room i can pick up dirt cheap hubs for £5 to run 10 of them and everything is wired into a cheap £10 power supply

FYI
Nanofury puts out      2 GH/s at 2.5w       750Mhs per watt
Antminer S1 puts out  180GH/s at 360w    500Mhs per watt
on electric price my break even is 500M/h per watt right now (bitcoin needs to go up £100 or so before i switch my S1s back on)

Ok buddy no problem sounds like you know what you're doing.

For what its worth I'd rather have 1 x S1 @ 180GH/s using more power than 90 x USB miners, hubs and hastle.

Been there and done that was more trouble than it was worth Cheesy.

Good luck with your search Smiley.

i still want the nanofury off you Cheesy let me know what you want
i dont seem to have to many problems with it everything's pretty well setup now i worked all the bugs out with ASIC block erupters and after a week of tweaking got everything else sorted for new miners with extra power draw

id love to add extra s1's but i doubt there going to break even and i cant find anywhere in the UK selling cheap enough electric to break even im on 14p per kwh
and the cheapest i know of is 12p per kwh

Ok of course you can, how does 0.04 sound delivered?

That's good I'm glad you've got them all set up and running ok, I never had that luxury Cheesy.

I know what you're saying about UK electricity prices, think I'm paying about 14p too.

I'm selling off my S1's now so buyers can earn something from them before they're completely worthless / useless in a few months time.

I have 3 Drillbit boards (8 bitfury chips each) and a backplate and other bits and pieces for sale. About 60 Gh/s I think. The original thread is here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=266235.0
Make me an offer.

(Not with me at the moment or I'd send a photo)

Also two USB devices with 2 bitfury chips on each. I think one of them is called a Bi*fury stick, but can't remember what the other one is. Pictures attached, perhaps you can find them. Make me an offer
