i have 55 $400 S2 coupons...
Can I apply multiple coupons to one machine purchase?
same question for me

No, its one coupon per device ordered.

Thanks. Of course not, my own risk 
I think conductive silver paint is going to be hard to find here, I will try something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egMr9kk1uHk
Haha, I watched that exact video when trying to fix my S1, theoretically it should work, but the resistance might be a bit high, I guess it would be a good idea to check the resistance on a board that works, if you have the equipment...

freebit, HOW the Hell did you spot that missing resistor??
LOL, SEVEN x 400USD 'coupons'
I'd checked all the boards after disassembling the chaos inside the casing, but didn't notice it then. Once I'd gotten the bent and twisted pci slots working well enough the one board was still not registering, so that narrowed it down... it took a while finding though LOL, SEVEN x 400USD 'coupons'
Nice.
OMG, 10 0.05 BTC coupon and 10 400USD coupon.
I don't know how to spend them now

Woah.. check your coupons..

Got my two s2's today. Both where fucked up inside, Cards everywhere, bent pci slots. Plastic thingy holding the cards had about 50% survival rate.
After assembling them back together one did not start and one worked at 650Ghs. After some hours of trying different things I got two new PSU's, XFX Black Edition 1250W and RECOM 1600W(Overkill but had it laying around) One are stable at 1Ths the other is working at 920ghs with row 10 showing only lines.
I feel the s2 is a step down from s1 when it comes to build quality and overall design.
Next time pack each cards individually with bubblewrap and stick them inside the miner. Shipping the miner with the cards already in their slot is borderline retarded.
I had the same and found that the card that wasn't registering was missing one of the tiny resistors ("0") closest to the pci connection on the board. I replaced the resistor with some pencil and some silver conductive paint and it's working fine for a week now.After assembling them back together one did not start and one worked at 650Ghs.

Thank you for that, will try it out.
You got picture so I can see? I got no education in electronics so this wil be "monkey see, monkey do" https://i.imgur.com/2Zt1Yen.jpg
It just shows which resistor it was, it's slightly blurry. I've got no education in electronics either, but I saw the corresponding resistor on another board had a "0" on it, so figured it wasn't providing much resistance and just shorted it and it worked. It would have been RMA anyway, so I figured I'd give it a go.
Be careful though, I can't take any responsibility if something goes horribly wrong...

Anyone having issues with the website ?

You got picture so I can see? I got no education in electronics so this wil be "monkey see, monkey do" NOW available for purchase but no sign of a 400USD coupon....
Site is in the drink here! OMG buy them all NOW!!
BFL & KnC are DDOS'in bitmain.. SOB'es
i think it goes for s1 and for s2.....
why no one told me that they have that?
I just saw the offer this morning, if this means $400 off coupon for each of my past S1/S2 purchases.. Oh man I need to call the sales creature get some cabinets put together!
Really wish KnC would get refunds done 22 days and counting.
Finally!!!!

strangely i have been awarded 6 x 0.05 S1 coupons...
lol!
lol!
I think the $400 coupons will be there at 8pm
8:17 now and site has not updated, suspense building... lol
What I should have said is the coupons will probably be allocated at the same time you can actually put an S2 in the basket, around 8pm (ish)
