Getting excited. Received a notification that my S9 is coming tomorrow rather than next week.

My outlet arrives today so I'll be swapping out a breaker, running a line, and should have everything set up and ready to go as soon as it arrives.

That's a normal number.  You're fine.


MINE ON WITH KANO-SAN!

Understood thanks!

If you mine with solar power on batteries you will almost always come out worse off than if you just bought the power at residential retail rates. You have to factor in wear and tear on the batteries - which by itself can be greater than just buying the electricity. On another note - if mining on solar power skip the inverters and power supplys and use direct current DC converters.

Great in theory, hard in practice due to the wire gauges involved in carrying the current to your miner.  Math:  13.5Th at 0.098w/GH = 1323 watts at 12V = 110.25 amps.  Would you really be willing to run 00 gauge wire to each miner and then break that down to (9) 6-pin connectors?

So, I suppose that would be more feasible with one of those high voltage miners like a 48v BitFury. Not making a recommendation; just trying to come up with a more practical application.

That was actually me. I goofed up, but I've received a couple messages saying Bitmain will give it back if I explain to them and I did so we will see.
If you have another coupon though.....I'm looking for 2 over $400 towards S9's FOR KANO POOL ONLY!! I will also donate an S7 running on Kano to another willing member pledging to keep it on Kano. All I need are 2 more coupons @ $400+ each. Just 2 more!!

Antpool is having some problems and more and more people are switching to Kano.is

PM me and I'll let you know what I got...

Bitmain is on vacation according to their website, lol  (some kind of holiday festival until April 8th or April 9th)...

I'm in the east coast of the US.  Is this the best setup?

primary: stratum+tcp://nya.kano.is:3333
2nd stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333
[/quote]
Looks good

 What would happen if someone didn't use the most optimal stratum? Just curious and trying to learn how things work, Thanks!

You might get a few more invalids, but all of Kano's pool nodes are rippin' fast!  Just don't point to one on the other side of the globe! 
Mine On!

Using the closest Server (lowest ping) ensures the work your miners are given and return use the fastest path to do it. They say in life, timing is everything. Ping each of the servers and use the Top 3 fastest ones.

MINE-ON WITH KANO-SAN

I have a problem that seems odd, and probably isn't related to the pool or my configuration related to the pool but I thought I would start here.

So I have a brand new set-up.   4 Avalon 841s daisy chained to one AUC3 hooked to one raspberry PI 3 controller.  I have nothing but love from all the lights on all the equipment:  All green(controller, miners, and AUC3) and all fans spin up just fine.   But I seem to remember a blue light that I don't see on the AUC3 and the controller doesn't see any of the miners tho )-:    There is nothing in the Pi logs insofar as errors are concerned.  

The pool website shows my worker uptime as reasonable (since I powered up the controller) and I changed nothing in my configuration from my previous setup with an Avalon 741 which worked fine.   I reset all the little serial connectors and even tried to connect just one miner with no success.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Controller Green - good, Miners should be Blue though.  Did you burn 841 firmware for the Pi?

Are you using the same controller (PI) The 841's have a different controller firmware that needs to be flashed onto the PI.

Also if you do have that set properly, did you try switching the cables around you are using to Daisy Chain them, it might be that the first one in the chain is defective. This was just a guess because I don't think the miner lights would be green if this was the case. EDIt: Got my colours switched up might be the cable since this is "idle"

That's exactly what I wana do!  I was going to make a pair of 10ga dongles (one + one - yes) connected to the three + and three - wires of the 6 pin, then run ten such dongles(?is that the term?  its fun to say!) to each miner.  Connect the 10ga to a buss built off my battery bank and provide grid assist w/a regular battery charger.  Think it'll work?  Dont need heavier gauges except for the battery bank buss

Th firmware thing must be it.  I use the latest and greatest at the Canaan site:

https://canaan.io/firmware-releases/

Now that I read it it does seem oriented to the 7XX series.   Does anyone have a different link?

(specifically, I used openwrt-brcm2708-bcm2710-rpi-3-ext4-sdcard )

Thanks again!!

Or Google "Canaan 841 firmware download"

Note that 821s and 841s use the same firmware.

I absolutely love seeing 135PH/s on the Pool!!! We are Rockin' Folks!!!

I have some updates to do on my graphics used for promoting.  Still getting ALOT of views/feedback from my social media campaign.

I'd like to Thank our Senior Kano Pool members for helping out our New members!!! Great Work!!! That helpfulness is one of the KEY
points that I promote.

Also, HUGE THANKS to Kano!!! Your support is the BIGGEST point I promote!!! By far, the absolute best POOL
OPERATOR the Bitcoin community has to offer!!! Keep up the Great Work!!!

As always, if anyone has suggestions about Kano Pool Promotion, please share!!! Hopefully by now, everyone can see what a little
"Word of Mouth" can do to help us!!!

A BTClock a day, will keep the FUDman away!!!
