We take paypal not sure if we'll get the newpac. Maybe sidehack and our sales can work something out or the vendors here to help.

isn't it possible to buy these things with the currency of the future? (aka bitcoin)
Yes but ive got money in my paypal account and would like to use that first
We currently accept paypal, not BTC at the moment, our creditcard/btc processing underwriter just dropped us (bitcoin is to high risk) and we are evaluating others and should have it back up in the next few days.

I did do some testing on my prototype hub build today and it looks to be working. Note that's only step one in about a five-step design process but it was the step with the most questions. Hopefully early next year I finally have a solid yet flexible hub for y'all.
Yeah I would like that. I think I am going to use five to ten of these new sticks.

asicpuppy takes btc.
I figured out my issue with my eyeboot 49 port hub it now works fine.
I have this one one the way

will post how the units work with this one as this one is not stupid expensive.

Is there a vendor that accepts paypal? Bitshopper used to accept paypal but doesnt look like hes stocking these at the moment.

Nice work, may need to get ride of some older pac's.

Outstanding! Just ordered four from ASICPuppy. Will be pointing these at Johnny's Gambling Hall, and Kano. Hope they play well with my other 2pac and Terminus miners.

They are the Plugables. I still have my trusty 49ers from Eyeboot but I was having trouble running several sticks at high speeds (I test at 200MHz though stock is 100) so I built new test setups with smaller hubs and better USB busses than the ancient computers I was using. Now each machine is running 12 sticks; I tested 16 but had trouble, though it could have been a faulty hub.
Two sticks per hub are running off one regulator, but they're also running only 5W each so power is not overwhelmed. You might have trouble depending on how much you overclock. If the hub's good for 60W that's 20W per regulator, so 10W per stick in pairs. If that holds, you should still see around 400MHz (90G) before it gives out assuming you have adequate cooling.
On Thursday I finally received a sample order of hub chips that were purchased in September, so hopefully I can get back to my own hub project. For now though, those Plugables are working pretty well.

Thank you for the reply,
I will order a few more plugables and mod them with fans in anticipation of more NewPacs to be coming.
Looking forward to seeing what you have coming out next.
Cheers

Sidehack, what hubs are you using in the pictures above?
They look like the 7-port Plugables (casing stripped) that NotFuzzyWarm recommended but you have 4 NewPacs in them. Which If i recall the Plugable was only able to power 3 2Pacs because of power distribution being joined at 1-2, 3-4, 5-7 ports.
Just wanting to see what hubs I need or if I can reuse what I have onhand.
