No, those only provide power, not data

Hi guys,
I pre-ordered 10 Moonlander 2 units (super excited!) and I was wondering if this kind of HUB would be a good buy:

Thank you in advance!

The description says it has 300mA per port. That means you won’t be able to overclock the stick much at all. You want one that gives around 2A per port.

So this wont work if I just plug it in to my pc's usb ports?
It will, just past ~3.5 MH you'll start pulling more than an Amp from USB ports. Comes down to what kind of motherboard/computer you have...some ports are built for 2A+ per port, and others can only do 500ma before they will shut the device down because of too much power draw.

Thank You for the info - what will be the cheapest powered usb to run 4 moonlander devices?
At what speed are you looking to run them? Probably getting two of the pluggable 7 ports would work best for most people, or the superbag 7 port if you can find one in stock (amazon stopped stocked them.)

The USB spec limits how much power is delivered to ports. Typically, the way to get around this is to buy powered USB hubs, with provided more juice to each port.
If you just want to run them stock, you'll probably be able to run them off your PC. If you want to overclock them, a powered hub is the way to go.

PLEASE GUYS I NEED TO BUY HUBS FOR 100 OF THESE MINERS CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHERE TO GET THEM FROM. cheapest please!!
Many thanks
Many thanks
Awesome looking product hoping to grab a few of these when they become available again in the EU. Im confused as to why anyone would spend $7000 euros on usb miners when the combined hashing power is not much more than an l3?
Is there any news when the next batch of these will be available?
As long as manufacturing goes smoothly at the end of this month, ill be able to place an additional chip order and probably have another batch ready within a month.

No - it has 3 regulator that limits the power to each section, so you could run at most 3 on that hub - port 1, port 3, port 6.
The USB hub thread for Sidehack's bitcoin sticks has a lot of good information on powered USB hub options.

Wow, shipping is cheaper from Asia than when I bought from USA to USA.
I ended up buying a Plugable USB 2.0 7-port HUB 60 WATT. http://plugable.com/products/usb2-hub7bc/
You can run three Moonlander 2 on these if you want. I'm using with GekkoScience 2Pac at 200 Mhz and running fine. My KillAWatt device is showing it is drawing 12 watt from the wall. Running my USB Tester shows 4.85V 1.92A (9.3W). It should work fine for Moonlander 2.

The fan on these mean you will need extra hubs, since they’re thicker than older USB miners.
You can get the Sipolar 20port for around $100 on eBay - for 100 you’d probably need 10 of them.
https://www.amazon.com/Sipolar-Industrial-Charger-Refurbish-Cellphone/dp/B01KPOEX9O/
You can also get some of the eyeboot 49 port hubs that provide 2amp per port. You’d need 4 of those, which are around 200 on Amazon or eBay.

Hey will the new version of moonlander 2 be available in europe via bitshopper.de ?
Nice work by the way it's something i was eager to see this kind of stuff, but i didnt and still don't have the technical knowledge to make it happen.
I guess we might all have a tiny miner attach in our phones in the near future.

Are this hardware available in south asia ? I want to try this and it's quite interesting. And what coin can be mined with this hardware ?
Here you go, just added an Asia distributor and they have stock (limit 2 per order).
