Hi  I'm hoping someone can help.  I placed a order with Bitmain and sent payment from Coinbase. From my end it looks like everything went ok but
Bitmain shows they did not receive payment and now the order shows it has expired.  Where did my Bitcoin go? I have ordered in the past and have had no problem.  I just hope I didn't lose 2K worth of Bitcoin.
Any advice would be appreciated.  Thanks

Send an email to Bitmain to fix the order status, it happened to my order also, don't worry he will ship your order.

Seriously, just cut the end off the Hong Kong cord, take it to Home Depot, tell them you want the right plug and they'll probably even wire it up for you for free.

Looks right. I ran mine for a couple of days on a lighter gauge cord and it got warm but not scary warm. Like I said, just under or about 9 amps at the wall.

Yea, its just that where this is going is about 20 S1's, which is already quite warm, so I do not want to push it over the edge.

Yeah those S1s put out some heat for sure, but I wouldn't stress out too much about it.
Just run it under the carpet where you won't see it if it catches fire lol

Or, if you are handy, you could cut the end off of your existing cable, pick up the correct connector at Home Depot or somewhere and wire it up yourself.

So far best buy and radio shack were a bust

Do you have a Frys near you ? They will have 'em. I just used the cord from a spare evga 1300 PSU i had lying around.

No Fry's, and nowhere else around here has them, I only want to order one once, so can someone please confirm that the following link is correct?

Or just unplug the washer or dryer or oven and use that outlet for now.

I have a 16 gauge one for my power supply for my comp Iwas going to use, but it has a bigger rubber part on the side that fits into the miner, aand won't fit in the S2 power supply. So far best buy and radio shack were a bust, last hope for the day is target or Walmart, otherwise I can't mine for 2 days until Ican order one fROM amazon. Hopefully bitmain compensates well for my troubles.

To Micro Center! (love that place)  It says 240V on it, so I assume its a foreign plug. Thanks for those who helped.
Better check the PSU for a 110/240 switch on it. Make sure its set correctly before plugging it in.

There's no switch.
And this cable does not fit in England and other  EU countries.


Didn't we decide it was Aussie as some point?  Either way, a heavy gauge replacement that fits your outlet will pop in and you'll be on your way.

I'd say 16gauge minimum.  I checked my cables, most of my big ones are 16, but I found a 14 that I'm using on one of my S2s.

Ok, Micro Center did not have a 15A cable, only 10A cables.  So I am out of places to go today.  If I were to take out a hashboard or two, will it run on a 10A cable just fine?  Or would you guys recommend not doing that?

Mine run just a little under 9A at the wall @ 120v

Radio shack.  Maybe.  15 amp preferred.

Hi guys,

If anyone has an S1 or S2 coupon my username is stevehoppy on the bitmain website.

Might make them the same price as for you Amricans then (Damn impost Duty & VAT!).

Tipping to the generous amongst you obviously lol.

Thanks,
Stephen

Perhaps someone can help.  I ordered a S2 and it just arrived today, I am in the U.S., but the power plug that came with the unit seems to be different than a standard U.S. plug.  It has 3 prongs, but they are all flat, has anyone else encountered this and can I just go and buy a proper cord from a store to replace it?

I want to answer this question but I just can't.

Why not?  I am being serious, its been a long day and I would really just like to plug the dang thing in, but the plug does not fit my outlet.

I recommend a heavy-duty power cord.  The thinner ones will get very hot and can cause the power supply to turn off unexpectedly.
