Bitmain is back in stock but at .893 now the difficulty is too high to add (for me at least).
 Sad
They have been .893 btc since March 26th.  Difficulty has increased since then and will again before this time next week.

Yea that's the problem though.  On March 26th the coin was at $575 and the difficulty was 5 billion.  If you order an S1 today it won't mine until the next diff jump which will be somewhere around 7.1 billion.  So same price for the unit but much higher difficulty and much lower coin...nasty recipe.

I have five and have to say I absolutely love em.  Just not at these numbers.

well if you purchased btc at 385 usd these are 343 dollars each.  if you mine .8 btc  with it at  450 usd a coin  you get 360 back  net usd  of 17  no power or psu used to get that number.

  very tight margins for any type of profit right now.  for instance I have one up for sale on ebay at 495 and it has not sold.  and 495 on ebay is the lowest ebay price.

  if I get the 495 for this machine  after fees and shipping I clear 420  I paid 343 so I make about 77 bucks on it. and whatever little it mines in about 10 days.  so under 90 profit at best.

unless btc jumps these will be a grind for me to make some money.  and I have 7 so  when all is said and done I will be lucky to make 1000 usd on all 7 combined.

In Stock Again.

Let me guess not profitable at $400, so it's out of stock.  Soon as it's >$450, magically in stock again.

It's a miracle!   Cheesy

I think Ninjatech has S1 in stock

Usually Ninjatech orders directly from Bitmain though.  So, if Bitmain is out of stock, then Ninjatech is too.

When I ordered from Ninja, the label said it's from Shenzen China, not Arizona where Ninjatech is based.

Is this 3 difficulties at the same price now? No thanks.
price of btc is down so don't expect to much. But like everything these days- is overpriced.

Antminer S1 Sales open Smiley


Guys its been at least 2 out of 10 of bitmain that were used (much dust), and also overclocked!

Are they serious? How can they have warranty when they send them o'cked?

Support also sucks, sorry.
Bitmain, any comment on this Huh Angry

I bought about 50 Antminer S1 units from Bitmaintech. Every time I had my unit cleaned form dust and resetted to stock speed and I was happy with it as customer. But what is happening now, with delayed deliveries of S2 units and dusted, used and overclocked S1 units is just beyond criticism.


well they delivered 25% of the entire btc  network in the form of s-1s.  They did this in under 5 months. I purchased 7 got one dud and got it replaced.

The network is about 60,000Th  25% of that is about 15,000Th  that comes to 75000-85,000 units of s-1's.  So what is an order of 50 what is 7 or 8 pices to their bottom line.  Not much.

 They slowed the s-2 down because the psu is wrong.  It will not work on a 120 volt setup it need to be a 1200 watt psu not a 1000 watt psu. They also slowed it down because price of coins is flat.

You can try the RMA info at:

Business plans/proporals, custom service and RMA request: [email protected]
.

Sometimes they answer right away, sometimes they dont at all.

Good Luck

BTW, I keep reading about 3-month warranty from BitMaintech. Is that a fact or just assumption?
Sorry, cannot find the writing on the wall.

Starting to get pretty warm in the US

What is a good temp to stay under for the S1?

What is the absolute extreme temp for the S1?

Is there a temp the S1 shuts itself off at?

I would like to know the answer to the first questions. But for what temp does it shut off? I dont think it does unless it dies. I had a fan stop working and the Antminer was at 80c. Thermal paste was dripping out ect. Ugly.


Wow! 80 celsius?. Was that the displayed temp on the webpage or you measure it?
I read that ants should run below 50c as on the surface, the chips run another 30c higher.

The temp reported isn't that of the chip core or even the package - instead there is a temp measurement IC (LM75A - http://www.ti.com/product/lm75a) in the lower center of each PCB (U42).

Here are a couple of snaps I just took:

This shows the temp (46.4degC) at the rough location of U42. This is close to that reported by the webui (45degC)




The next shows the temp (59.6degC) as measured from one of the nearby asics...
