Numbers look right now kill that first two weeks and give me that total...

What is the type of Raspberry Pi used with these I'd like to buy a backup one now. 

Me too - been 10 days now - After multiple emails megabigpower.com keeps telling me that my refund is coming - they say Dave wants to do all refunds at once... I'm getting concerned now.  

If you received full kit today.  Here is what you'd get:

$8000/126 = BTC63.5

So full kit is "worth" $5400 to break even.  It should be 4K to make any ROI.

I'm sorry, but ROI in FIAT has no economic sense.

If you need that your BTCs increase in value to get a return you're better off buying and holding them.

If you spent 600 USD (which then were 10 BTCs - it is just an example!) and then you get back, one year from now, 8 BTCs that have a value of 80K USD (just to give an extreme revaluation example) you've simply lost 20K USD!

spiccioli

calculate 1.3 coins per day. "What a 400gh Fury makes today"
then drop that 30% every 10 days.

I don't see any ROI.

If you paid in USD Using this Better Calculator below ( In my Opinion ) I see ROI pretty quickly no matter how I change it. If you used BTC then you probably bought these when BTC was 76$ a coin then well ouch.

Point your unit to two different pools.

It will share its hashing between them and when one goes down the other takes it all.

spiccioli.

So after missing ~6 hours of mining time due to the BTC Guild DDoS, does anyone have a method for setting up backup mining pools for these devices? Or is this something that we will get with v2 updates?

two full Early October kits.

H cards have a good chance at ROI, provided you can OC each card above 34 GH/s (this takes time and some skills).

I predict Hcards will ROI in Fiat at 3-7 months timeframe.

Starter kit by itself does not have a good chance.  (only if you bought during August).

Full Kit can ROI  3-7 months.


Again ROI in fiat, not btc.  Assuming prices stay around $140/btc and that one can maintain each card at an average of 34Ghash/sec per card for months at a time 24/7/30.

What did you purchase?

Still waiting on a refund..

Sadly you're right, same here on the other side of the pond.

It is true that August kits can be overclocked massively, so a 400 GH/s full kit is able to mine at around 550-580 GH/s, but even at 580 it won't repay itself and KnC seems to be on the right track to deliver, which will make things even worse.

It's really sad, since these units are wonderfull, 500 GHs in such a small form, with so little energy use... but waaay overpriced.

 Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say that, but it's reasonable to say we're paying close to a $2,000 USD premium for these full October units if they are shipping towards the last half of the month.

Seems whomever ordered any of these kits August or October delivery threw money into a black hole.  

I hear you brother. That's why I sit on the sidelines and eat popcorn hoping these units don't ship on time so I can try to recoup some of the money I wasted on Asicminer gear.

Ugh. $8k for an end of October order is starting to give me heartburn... I should probably look into a less stressful hobby, like rock climbing, or base jumping...

That's going to depend on when Dave actually ships. EU customers are already receiving their kits and mining at 150MM. Huge win for them.

Gotcha..., you don't think it will be ~200MM in a week? and like >250MM when you get the full kit?
KNC miners are supposed to be hitting the street soon as well as BF EU kits.
