Thanks.

I ordered one and it was shipped very quickly. Arrived on-time and in great condition.
It has been running for 3 days now.
I seem to be getting an amount of rejected shares though.
It is running at 2 TH/s but due to the amount of rejected shares, it is effectively running at 1.7 TH/s.
I am not sure what to do about this. I am running it on Ghash.io pool.

you should set the diff to 2048 on a S4
btcguild mmpool.org and maybe antpool are working fine

Thank you for this advice. I have changed the difficulty on Ghash.io to 2048! Hash rate has gone up a little bit. Range is now 1.7 to 1.9.

you really should read the official thread. They had/have a lot of issues with power supplies catching fire, etc.
Bitmain will give anyone free coupons if you ask them. Don't get scammed into buying them.
Personally as most others here have already done, we've gone the spondoolies route. SP20. But once again, do your research and don't believe what paid employees post.

If you go the bitmain route, stick with the S3's and your own power supplies. Decent ones like evga or corsair. The spondoolies route, here is a recent video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4FUk6TXK18

I've made 2 orders directly with Bitmain using wire transfer from the United States. The payment was acknowledged within 1 day and I had my miner in only 4 business days. The wire transfer fee will cost around $40-45 for an international wire transfer fee. It was $45 for me through Wells Fargo bank. The problem with the s4 were mostly due to PSU issues on batch 1. Batch 2 is now available, which is what I have. The 1 I have in my home has not had any issues and I have it overclocked at 212.5MHz which is averaging 2150GH/s. I also recommend the SP20 from spondoolies. The S4 and SP20 currently give you the best bang for your buck and are also the most efficient(power) miners. approx 0.69W/GH for s4 and the SP20. You can underclock both to get better power savings, but its unlikely that what you save in power will offset what you lose in BTC from reduced hashing power. Read about each on their respective threads, as there is more than enough info about both of these. Do yourself a favor and try to read as much as possible before taking the plunge.

I thought they fixed this problem with the power supplies in batch 2?
