ANTMINER C1 Discussion and Support Thread

[opentoe]

What kind of connections do the radiator fans have on them? 3 pin, 4pin, or something else? I'm looking for an adapter that will power all the fans directly from my power supply and not have to go through the miner rig.

3 pin on the 3 radiator fans, 4 pin on the pump.

Ok thanks. Now just to look for a molex connector to a multi 3pin harness. Not trying to avoid using the harness, but more as a backup really.

Any generic fan controller will do that. Might have to cut a bit of the plastic on one of them to fit the 4 pin in but it will effectively give you 4x3pin to molex.

Having a tough time finding the adaptder. Just want to go from my power supply and plug the male part of the 4 pin molex into the femaie. Then on the other end plug the pump into it with the 4pin connector, hence not have to open up the C1 at all or use any harness.

Try this:
•Order a molex to fan power board (example http://www.amazon.com/Phobya-4-Pin-3-Pin-Splitter-Connection/dp/B007S3T4O0/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1415897694&sr=8-3&keywords=molex+to+fan   

I have those already. That's for a three pin. The pump is a 4 pin.

Shipping cost to Hungary (UPS) 112 USD     This is nightmare !

Anyone know a dealer in Europe?

I bought a couple of them and had to pay $125 USD for shipping. I'm in the US and I really hope Bitmain just puts down broken computer parts on the customs sheet or something. Makes it go through customs quicker.

Thats not going to happen.

OK....time to take a step back.  Here are my views on the overall theme.

C1s are great...compact, efficient, low noise, easy to configure (maybe have to reflash an SD card, but not really a big deal)...BUT, the overall cost (mostly due to shipping) is a concern.

There are some serious concerns with the cooling kits...both in terms of quality and shipping costs.

I completely disagree with others on this forum who defend the shipping currently being charged.

This really isn't rocket science. It costs a lot to ship "one offs" from China to the USA. It costs much less (on a per unit basis) to ship lots of units. BitMainTech and SysCooling should work with someone stateside to figure out how to do this right.  I will take myself out of the mix so there is no conflict of interest, but somebody should make a deal to get a bunch of these to the USA via an efficient shipping method and then resell/reship them to US buyers....and I promise you, you won't have to spend $70K to do so and should be able to cut a deal to make a nice profit. 

Happy Mining.

Being processed, let me know on Monday if you've still not received them.

[s2miner]

Please check the shipping for these 2 items with coupons. Coupon will not look as attractive.

[klondike_bar]

damn - because i needed over 100 coupons for S4 units...

if anyone wants coupons for S3+ or S4 let me know, ill give them for next-to-nothing, esp if you want 10+

Yea, it is called a reseller, but resellers are so greedy they raise the prices so high no one buys them, hence we're back where were started from.

I have 6 S4 coupons worth 400 USD and 2 S3 coupons worth 50 USD. How do I use them? During the check out process or something.

Also, where are all the batch one C1's that went out? You figure we would have some pictures or feedback on those already. Can someone take a picture of all the ends on the syscooling wiring harness? Is the 4pin connection to run the pump female or male? I'm assuming the fan connections are just regular 3pin connections as you would be plugging into a mainboard. I want to power everything directly off the power supply. Also please tell me this C1 has a thermal shutdown or some kind of protection if the pump fails. Cause once that happens, I'm positive it will overheat and burn up if it continues to run. I've seen with friends that these cheap cooling pumps can cease at any time and just stop running. My buddy told me if you want a professional small size pump like that you would need to spend just as much as what the miner cost. Ouch. I have no idea if that's true or not, since water cooling anything is all very new to me.

Can someone please post some pictures of that 1000GH/s guaranteed hashing speed!

Thanks!

Is there anyway to get compensation?  I am still waiting on RMA pumps from syscool and a power harness since other sets fires and burned 2 cards.  The scary thing about the pump is coolant leaks through power cable spot not cracks (It's one of the two I got that stopped working).

I do not think that they will send you something. Better to leave this  syscooling clown a nice  negative feedback.

I've sent three e-mail and no reply for almost two weeks. I am still waiting a 2x power harness andreplacement for  DOA  pump.

If I buy one of these can I get a pump setup from elsewhere? Seems like the main issue with these is the syscooling stuff?
