Hey guys.  I was in the middle of ordering 4x S1s when I realized I had to fund my btc wallet a little.  When I went back, my coupons had expired.  So....I'm pan handling for coupons!  Any coupons welcome for S1s, as all 11 that I had remaining expired today.  I intend to use them and not resell them.  Thank you in advance for your generosity.

By the way, I have something like 20 S2 coupons that expire in the next 1 week if anyone is look for those let me know.

Cheers.

Alright, I got a question that I hope someone can answer.  I've bought a few different miners now and I have always messed up on the mining calculations.  Even the online calculators seem to be way off from my experience using them.

I can get one of these off of Craigslist for $450 Canadian, and it comes with a power supply.

The power supply on it's own is running about $120 Canadian, so that makes the miner $330.

I'm pretty sure the better option is just to spend the $450 on coin, but I like to see the results every day when I log in, LOL! I also like the fact that I'm mining which helps support bitcoin as a whole.

Will I make anything close to what I spend on this?  I'm not all that concerned about power costs being part of the equation.

Calculators will say that, but you can break-even if you act wisely.

Something back in return? Didnt you get instant shipping, quality hardware, no delays, no fuck-overs and etc?

I recently bought an Antminer S1 but it has a poor wifi signal even with an antenna attached.

It's exceptionally poor wifi because I have another Antminer directly beside it and that Antminer receives an adequate signal

Is this issue common?  Is there a fix?

Out of the last eight S1's that I received, two of them can see the wifi but cannot connect once they are setup.  I have a total of ten on wifi at the moment, the rest are using TP ethernet.  I have tried reflashing the firmware, but the wifi on those two machines just wont work.

I was just answering the question about the wifi problems.  I have already rotated miners to where they work best.  

I ran out of power ports in the front of the warehouse and had to setup the others in the back temporarily with wifi until I can finish adding the power drops I need for all of the miners in the front.

I just (5min ago) got 3 brand new S1 and EVGA1300 to run them, but cannot employ due to "family" objections about noise, cords, etc.
If anybody is interested, send me PM, I am in Houston.

You could undervolt and put them in something like this ---silent---



Or with that power supply you could run two more undervolted/underclocked to 153gh and almost silent

I am curious...EVGA has 8 PCIe cables. Are they split cables or did you use split extenders to run 5 (10 connectors) underclocked?
What is the box? Is it some kind of datacenter box or something simpler?
I am intrigued.
