I have a question about SP30. As i read in the product information you will have a chip that can pump 300GH/s. How do you plan to cool it? Looking at your competition KnC has a chip that can do ~170 GH/s and they have a big ass radiator for every chip. HashFast has a chip that can pump 750GH/s and it is water cooled. Bitmine.ch has a chip that does ~25GH/s and they need a big ass radiator too. Your case for SP30 makes me think that you will have the same construction as SP10, but somehow it doesn't feel right. Could you please explain a bit?
The answer there would appear to be that they expect significantly greater power efficiency.  Normally I would recommend extreme caution: Getting power estimates vastly off appears to be par for mining hardware companies— but in this case they apparently have a first chip in operation.

I think they changed the description from the SP30 product. Now i see that their chip will do 187 GH/s at 0.38W/GH which translates to 71W per chip on a "23 mm x 23 mm HFCBGA with stiffener" area. How big is the KnC chip?(just to compare)

I wonder what was the estimate on their SP10 chip and if they got it correctly because every power estimate was off on every asic chip.

A quick update on current status.

The SP10 units for April are sold out.
The bundle which includes shipment of SP10 in March is sold out.

Due to request coming in we are opening yet another batch of the SP10 - Dawson for the first half of May.

This means that you can now order one of the following:

  • SP10 1.4 TH/s shipping early May
  • SP10 1.4 TH/s shipping in April + SP30 5.4 TH/s shipping in July
  • SP30 5.4 TH/s shipping in August

We are trying to keep up with demand and are very happy to answer any questions you might have at [email protected]

Same price, but delivery 2-4 weeks later it's a big no no for me. I really wanted to order one SP10 unit, but i couldn't find enough information about the PSU. I don't want a fire hazard and i don't know how long will the PSU last before going dead.

Shouldn't the May batch be at least a little bit cheaper than the April one?
For example, Bitmain lowered the price of their second batch of S2 miners by $300 from the original price of the first batch.

That's an extremely limited warranty period.
We'll review our policy compare to the acceptable in the market and might revise it.


I thought the policy should be in accordance with the hardware not with the market.

First sample sent out yesterday and no tests yet and people have ordered? 7 days - is that realistic?

I think you better do...Widely accepted in the electronics/computer industry are MINIMUM 1 year warranty policies...Correct me if I am wrong...

What's your refund policy?

And also how much warranty?

I echo these questions, but I haven't seen a response yet. Anything on these, SyRenity?


Sorry, missed these ones during the launch rush.

The full TOS is here:
http://www.spondoolies-tech.com/pages/terms-of-sale

In a nutshell:
  • All sales are final, we guarantee to deliver the ASIC units on time and per the announced specifications (we bound on this to our VC investors as well!).
  • DOA - 14 days within purchase, via RMA procedure defined in TOS.
  • Warranty - 90 days limited, assuming no modding was done to the units.

I actually had my finger on the trigger to buy one until I saw this.

Unfortunately, I can't remember a time when the non-refundable / limited warranty approach hasn't burned a customer...so as shiny and well-engineered as your product may be, I'll sit on the sidelines until you guys have established yourselves. Nothing against Spondoolies, of course, but my tolerance for risk is quite a bit lower than it once was.

Wow, talk about buyer beware.  That's an extremely limited warranty period.

If it croaks after 3 months, sucks to be you!

So Israel (your local market) is the only market that suffers from this ?

What about manual payment process ? or can I just stop by your offices in Keriat Gat ?

Sorry, but we will sell to Israeli market only once we find a local distributor.

That said, you are welcome to visit us in Kiryat-Gat and meet the team - just ping us before at: [email protected]

Question for those who paid with BTC,

do you get an email order confirmation (with order number) after the BTC is sent? What happens if you dont send BTC within the 15min limit or not sending BTC at all? Do you still receive an email?

I want to know if email is sent only once they confirm payment.


We using BitPay, and once the BTC confirmations are clear, you will get an order confirmation email.

So you're saying if i receive the confirmation email, my payment is completed?

Does Bitpay also email me a confirmation email?
