Lol cheers. Very complicated :-) Waiting for my mienrs to be delivered tomorrow.

Btw, Bitcrane has released water cooled miner. Takes shit loads of power though. About 1W/Gh.
They sell from stock. Quite expensive too.

Would it make sense for S-T to apply such cncept for their next generation miners?

Plug in power. (make sure you use atleast a 220V socket for optimal performance)
Connect to network.

Go to myminer.io and click on your miner. (From a computer on the same network)

Put in pools via the webui and upgrade the firmware to the latest version.

If there are any more questions just post.

Could someone, please give me a link to SP30 setup guide or alternatively just copy it here for me. Thanks

coincidentally I actually sent you an email regarding a full refund yesterday, it was quite a speech from me lol.

I appreciate your apology.

I knew something was wrong based on where I am in the order chain and that so many have at least received the compensation email. I trust that you will now ship the miner ASAP? Given that you have mistakenly not shipped my order in it's rightful position in the queue.

I await tracking information.

EDIT: And possibly some extra comp given the time I have lost mining ... wishful thinking? A couple of days hosted mining would go a long way here.

I'll check why you didn't get the compensation email. We'll ship your miner as well.
I apologize for the honest mistake.

Regards,
Guy

You want your whole last email quoted here it is

"Hi Steve,

Our customer service department has started contacting each customer with regard to the compensation plan and will contact you in that regard soon.

We have started shipping the Group Buy units today and all units are expected to be shipped on time before the end of the month.

The SP30 under current spec is still an excellent unit but should you chose to cancel your order we will refund you in USD. All refunds will be paid out in October as we are still setting up our systems to manage the transfers correctly.

Should you choose to cancel your order please let us know ASAP as this is only possible before we ship the unit. Once the unit is shipped we can no longer process the cancellation request.

Best Regards,

Gadi "

I don't know where it says that it's ready to go pending my reply.

In fact it clearly states that you will contact me soon regarding the details of the compensation...Still waiting for that email!

Yes I still want the miner if its ready to go then by all means ship it out right now I'll take the 18% cash refund you have offered others.

Thankyou.

@Stevbenson,

You've contacted us with regard to cancellation of your order and full refund. We've written back and waiting you reply.
If you want your order shipped, let us know and we'll ship it.

Thanks,
Guy

Thanks for the clarification Bick I withdraw my shenanigans from SPTech... for the moment... I am still greatly sceptical that they will ship them all by the end of the week given the number of orders behind me.

Anyone else who got a miner or tracking want to post their TXID or placeholder/deposit date would be greatly appreciated

Also @ Whooper: It is clearly stated in the group buy that shipping order is based on the order of the reservation TXID. I have this confirmed to me by Roadstress in the original PM's from the GB too.

I think Guy was referring to the SP30 payment TRX ID, not the reservation TRX ID to Roadstress.
My payment via Bitpay was recorded in the blockchain on 2014-04-30 16:33 (https://blockchain.info/block-index/403602).

The weekend in Israel starts Fri. Some people work Fri mornings. Sunday is the 1st working day in the week.

Cool. Thanks

That was full payment. Not placeholder payment sorry I should have clarified.

Date: 22/04/2014 10:29 is when I put in my deposit you can check that in the GB thread. Which if I am not mistaken is when the order was set for shipping the GB not on full payment as it was a non-refundable deposit and acted as placeholder. Might want to check GB rules / op for that information as well I think it was specified or at least asked about in the thread.

My best guess... you will get an email today or tomorrow... when is the weekend in Israel again?

Edit: We were only a few days off and I bought during a lull or slowing down of sales if I remember correctly can't be that many orders between you and I Stevbenson. Send another email to SALES at sptech and ask again about shipping dates. See the SPTech post on the topic.

Edit 2: 1st miner up with new FW doing solid 4.5 to 4.7 TH/s range. 2nd miner going up soon.

3/5 Mine was the on the 27/4 (you can look up my TXID if you don't believe me) And you got your miner already?

WTF Spondoolies! Shipping way out of order!

It is safe to mine after firmware upgrade.

The instruction is only meant for people running into unusual problems, to provide the most time-efficient support possible.

Thanks. Is it safe to start mining after upgrading ? Since you might not be able to log on to the miners immediately ?

Hm I think the tube might be a good choice if you meet the following parameters:

Power at or below 0.08$/kWh, PSU for the miner at around 60$(breakout board+psu), no additional rent for the used space required (ie the 0.08$/kWh is including rent).

If however difficulty keeps rising rapidly and then slows down a lot, sp31s might be the better deal (and will most definately run for a longer time period, due to lower power consumption).

Tubes might make you a bigger profit than future sp30, you never know. (But most likely not more than a current sp30 at around 0.88$/GH)

They will certainly not run longer though.

Hmmm ya like I posted before be best if they provide a 2 or 3 day window to narrow down when things ship. Not just a before the 31st. When I originally paid I calculated it out based on the info RoadStress and SPtech provided in the thread and it was between the 20th to 25th range given the project production numbers they quoted then. Mine shipped 27th arrived 28th. They have the skills sets to set customers with a much more specific shipping date but I suspect they want to make sure of under promise over deliver.

My feeling is you will get refund notice in before the end of August and shipping will follow rapidly. Can always ask for more compensation if you get your unit in hand post August. That is well within our rights as customers and I dare say that SPTech given their record will listen and consider such a claim with professionalism.

Sorry not going to post my TXID here. I can give you the date: Date: 03/05/2014 08:13. Hope that info helps.

Yeah, you've missed quite a lot here... for instance, spec'ing up a new machine with a second hand sever PSU? That is not a fair comparison but adding in the $170 or so for a new PSU for each tube would really screw up your figures, wouldn't it? No warranty, no guarantee on power factor etc, etc.

You really need to let the ventriloquist who is moving your mouth for speak directly. You're making up stuff, including your power consumption figures and while people who aren't proper engineers might be satisfied with them I know fine and well what you're doing. If you want a fair comparison, get a proper vaildated spec for the tube and it's actual power consumption, that mean the real power (resistive and reactive) drawn from the wall that appears on your bill.

The ST guys use proper performance figures and they also use an expensive server PSU that has active PF correction, their 3000 watts at the wall is what you'll pay for. Your figures are all over the place, just what I'd expect from an amateur, take best case yours and worst case theirs, and throw in some second hand equipment costs for good measure. You're an idiot.

I'm really busy with my job just now so don't have enough time just now to do this comparison for you, but I will get round to it. You're obviously not up to the task and can't be impartial.

I really really hope you are right Bick... The thing is though if you look at the TXID's of the GB I would be roughly half way through...

There are roughly 50 orders with approx. 100 units in front of me and roughly 70 orders for 130 units BEHIND me (Not including the 185 unit whale that we have been told was practically the only one to not pay the full amount)

So they haven't even shipped half the GB yet...


Edit:
This is my TXID if you want to confirm what I am saying

e00c8e0e7dbc4e1ecf47a6ebca8574dcabc1f75e12eb6483f6d338edef1084eb

Anyone who has received a miner or tracking number please post the TXID of your original deposit so we can see where they really are with their orders

Sorry, I might be a little tired.

I am not quite sure whether spondoolies goes through the offers for compensation on a per customer basis or according to order number.

It basically gives you the option of receiving an 18% cash refund or a 21% voucher, according to your payment amount.

Miners ordered after a certain date get a 25% refund or slighlty higher voucher, afaik. (as the hashrate was then advertised as 6Th)
