I can totally see if you took nobody's money and just worked in silence until your product was ready for release. But the fact people have spent money on a pre order and you cant seem to send any kind of update emails is pathetic.

C'mon, really?
The last email on June 27 said they were a couple weeks behind and to expect the third week of July and checking my handy calendar shows we are just in the middle of second week after a major holiday. I think the email notifications are more than enough.

How is the Apollo Batch coming along, still projecting to ship by the end of JULY..

2 batch 2's ordered to go with my 2 batch 1's  Smiley

Batch 2 Pre-Order is now live!

PSU is now available as a bundle, and its pretty much a plug and play experience finally! The supply is also available for standalone for whoever wants it for Batch 1 Apollos.

Promo code BATCH2-10-OFF is available for everyone here.

IF you want to pay in crypto you can use this code for 5% off. THIS IS FOR CRYPTO ONLY...I will cancel and refund anyone that uses this code to pay in fiat/paypal/credit.

CRYPTO-PAYMENT-ONLY-5%OFF

https://shop.futurebit.io/products/apollo-ltc-pod-asic-miner-for-scrypt-algorithm-cryptocurrencies-batch-2

 Huh is that a further 5% reduction for paying in crypto?

Right that code is only if you pay with coinbase checkout. Don’t use that code for fiat payments otherwise your order will be canceled and refunded.

There is a fair bit of dust accumulating in the heatsink. Any tips on removal. Is vacuum ok if its off?

Every month or so I blast through the fins with the air compressor, then watch the temps drop 2-4 C  Grin

I just use a toothpick and trash the dust bunnies. This way, you're not making a mess blowing dust bunnies all over the place.

Good morning,

Just been reading all the "will never ROI" comments.

Anyone who has just bought one, and doesnt think it will ROI, please feel free to sell me it cheap (UK).
I'm paying 18p kwh (inc standing charge) and know i can make daily profit, and ROI withing 3-6 months

So, like i say, if u dont want em, feel free to send em my way. Smiley

Does anyone know when the new power supplies are going to ship? I ordered mine a while ago. I know it was a pre-order, but I was just curious if anyone had heard anything

The product page still says July.


Yes, power supplies are still slated for first or second week of july, thats also when Apollos + PSU combos will ship. We are just starting PCB production in California, so as long as we get the first case metals back by end of June still looking good for stand alone Apollos to start going out end of June.

Ill send out an email to all pre-orders this week with a better update.

Been looking forward to an email.. Any updates?

Any updates on when batch two will be ready to ship?

Things going much smoother this time around so pretty sure we can start shipping end of June as promised. Only bottleneck this time around are the new enclosures which are getting sourced from a different supplier...worst case would be shipping into the beginning of July.

are you shipping to Europe or best to wait until bitshopper.de has them?

Yes shipping worldwide via fedex. We have really good fedex rates so most express shipments worldwide are between 30-50 USD for most people. Comes down to your local situation on whether shipping+taxes are going to be higher for you from buying direct through me or paying a premium through bitshopper...he sells them at least 20-30% higher to cover import costs + his margins so its a case by case basis.
