The second batch of Compac stick miners should be appearing within a week or two. I'm a bit behind schedule on manufacturing for them. We're also sold out on 750W PSU boards right now, but another batch should be ready around the first of December. I'm working on an 8-chip pod miner that takes a standard CPU cooler, made with recycle parts. There's a trade-in program going to happen, where you can trade old or dead miners for these small miners. They'll run about the same efficiency curve as the Compac stickminer (0.3-0.55W/GH or so) with an expected draw around 15W for 44GH at the bottom and about 120W for 200GH at the top. Voltage will be software-adjustable. More details in this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1203190.0If that sounds like something you'd get in on, please cast a vote. I'll use the results of that poll to determine how many I want to make. We also will soon have prototypes and get started running out a batch of new server supply boards. The board will work with DPS800 and DPS1200 supplies, and any other PSU which uses the same pinout. You'll have the option of either our standard screw terminals (8 positions per rail), or 6-pin PCIe connectors (10 per board). All the favorite features will be included - external on, power good signal, 3.3V standby, and the optional 5VDC aux supply. We're also in the process of upgrading our hosting infrastructure and adding about 50KW of power, which I should have online by the first of December. We'll be dropping the standard rate to about $65 per KW-month and there is no minimum power draw. As always, VPN remote access is free. We'll probably be offering some nifty packages like discounted PSU purchases or free use of PSUs for new customers on things like the S7 or Avalon6. This is deliberately a teaser update and more details will follow because I don't have them all yet. GekkoScience is going to be pretty darn busy the rest of the year, but it should be pretty great.

Well, unfortunately I'm out of stock on both 750W and 2KW boards. Here soon I will have some nice boards for edge-connector PSUs, namely a board which works for DPS800 and DPS1200/Common Slot family. I've been busy with other things, and haven't had the resources to put into batches of boards.

Guess I'll just make my own as I only need two, I just ordered some Amphenol FCI 51915-064LF's, most of the time I have to do this when the "big-demand" cools down and people don't want to stock anymore

Updating for new product, dual-function DPS800/DPS1200 board. I still get a lot of requests for the D750 and DPS2K boards, so I plan on doing batches of those again as soon as I can - which unfortunately won't be for a couple months. And as always, work continues on other new projects.

All my DPS812 boards currently are spoken for, but I'll have a couple hundred more available within a couple weeks.

Bump, I've still got DPS812 boards available. I'm looking into redesigning the Dell 750W board to take screw terminals or 6-pin jacks like the new DPS812 board and, if the right thing or two comes together, I'll probably be doing a batch soon. One idea is to offer a two-supply kit with all the cabling required to power an S7 or S9 for about $100, and these would do it off 120VAC.

well if you have a two-supply kit for an s9 at 100 and able to do 120 or 240 ac it would be nice. 120 volt players are stuck with the evga 1600 g2 at 300 the evga p2 at 350 and the evga 1600 t2 at 400 I have 120 and 240 available. I have 4 s-9's on order and I would not mind ordering 1 of these prototype kits for 100 i would like to see how practical it is for a 120 volt guy. I know with proper setup the s-9 should see it as 1 psu. and it is about 50 usd lower then the antminer psu which needs 220 volt.

Sure, if you got a PicoPSU. Buying one of those that take in 12V directly and provide all the connections for a motherboard is a heck of a lot easier than me designing a new board to do it all and provide the cabling.

Is there like a molex cable or something that I can buy so that I can connect an ATX PSU to the remote on for the 750W interface board? I'd like to setup an eth rig to run off a smaller ATX power supply and then have the video cards run by the 750W and would prefer if they turned on and off together. From what I read on the 750W interface boards there's a pin and a dip switch for remote on but I'm not very technical at these things. Or perhaps there's a USB cable that I can connect to the remtoe on pin?

Bump for DPS1200/800 boards are in stock.
I'm also working on prototypes for some hardware to assist with building GPU rigs powered from server supplies (no ATX required), which includes custom cabling. I can do 6+2 cables, splitters and adapters, and 4-Molex connections for powering GPU risers.
I also will soon have prototypes for the new Dell 750W board, which are made to take PCIe 6-pin jacks for quick cabling and can be paired to load-balance and operate from a single on/off switch very easily. This provides you with probably the cheapest reliable/reputable option to run an S7 or S9 off 120V power.

this would be interesting. single server psu plus your hardware for a complete atx motherboard based gpu miner rig?

does the 1200/800 board work on the dps800gba psu?

Bump for some updates.
I have pared down some of the inactive items, notably the Dell 750W boards and kits. This board is currently in prototype for a new improved version which will allow both screw terminals and PCIe 6-pin jacks. It will also be designed to pair up with other D750 kits more readily for single-switch control of multiple supplies (which means a 1500W single rail from 120V is possible for about $100) and should implement thermostatic automatic fan control.
I have added 1200W and 1500W kit listings to the DPS812 board section. I think these are pretty great.
I have added a new product - a 5V adapter board intended to take in 12V and provide 5V and 12V output for GPU risers and other PC innards.
I also updated the cables section with more information - I can now manufacture 6-pin splitters, 6+2 cables and 4-pin Molex cables, as well as provide sheathing for cables at an additional cost.
New products are in development, including a current-gen Compac stickminer, a stout powered USB hub, and an ATX24 adapter for motherboard power from a server PSU.

Depends on length and what terminations you want, and to some extent quantity. What are you looking for?
