Wish Bitmain would've priced the S2 in BTC from the get go, as I would like to jump on one of these bad boys once it gets reasonably priced pre-coupon.

S1 is priced in BTC and S2 is priced in fiat, simple as that.

New price for AntMiner S2 1 TH/s Miner Batch 4: 2259 USD each one, shipping cost included.
So is S2 priced in $ or BTC ?
Are you trying to have best of both worlds ?
To me it looks like S2 is priced in BTC for you and $ is just mean to get what you want.
If BTC goes to $1000 your S2 price would be $4500
no you are wrong. today it is 2259 usd so the 2259 stays frozen for a day. while btc moves up and down.
btc is now 525 usd. so you will pay more in btc at this moment in time then you would have paid an hour or so ago when btc
was 535 usd. you could get lucky and order when btc is 580usd (if it goes to 580usd) and pay even less.
I have been very happy with BITMAIN. They are highly responsive. Easy to do business with. (AMT and BFL issues here) I pay, they deliver, I receive, open the box things are in order (minor shipping issues reseat a few cards but ok otherwise) and I am off to hashing after setup. All in all this is how a mining experience should be.
And the announcement of upgrades earlier this month just makes me happier to know I went with bitmain. I look forward to the next things they got coming. They are doing their very best and obviously take pride in their work. This is a huge win for everyone. Sure there will be issues, BUT I feel good knowing they are working on improving and they are on their game. That is a key point.

If they would have priced it in BTC from the get-go they wouldn't have this mess.
Vote with your wallet and Bitmain will respond.
Wow, the price went up ….
Not cool ….

I think it is very cool that BITMAIN pricing is continuously responsive to market conditions.
Why don't you wait a couple more weeks while the difficulty increases … you might save a few dollars on the price …

Juans US only, NO discount coupon group buy??
Almost as 'meh' as the 15USD price increase...

Well, 1859 (w/coupon) vs 1650. I'll take more than 10% discount
In these group buys you don't have to be quick though. Spond group buy-$3200, suddenly cut to $2900 as it ended.
S2 group buy stayed the same in $$, but you would have paid ~15% less BTC if you were one of the last to participate.
Sometimes it pays to wait, but sometimes it is not...I guess that it averages out over the longer time frames.

It wasn't US only.
And I think asking for a discount on $1650 would be a bit much really

yeah btc is heating up
yesterday 2244-400 = 1844 btc was 505 so 1844/505= 3.65 btc
today 2259-400 = 1859 btc is 535 1859/535 = 3.47 btc
If you have the coins on hand this is a no issue. as it is less coins.

Which machine is less finicky at the higher ambient temperature: S1 or S2?
I have a bunch of S1 ants (~2000w worth) and S2 is/are coming.
I probably don't have enough air conditioning to keep all of my equipment cozy in the air-conditioned space.
Some units will have to go to the garage.
Does anybody have any positive things to say about either S1 or S2 at the ambient ~90-91oF (~32oC)?
Hopefully, it stays this way and not above for about a month more here.
I have over 20 S1's here in Texas. I have a bunch of S1 ants (~2000w worth) and S2 is/are coming.

We have had over 100F weather here several times already and the S1's run fine as long as you keep the air flowing and constantly exchanging the hot inside air with fresh outside air.
Some of the miners have hit 54C (which is 129F) when the building was closed up, but opening up the building and exchanging the air drops the temps down quickly.
The key is to exhaust the hot air and bring in the cooler outside air. Just keep the air flowing and you should be fine.
Thanks. Do you need a free s2 coupon? I don't have any S1 coupons left (and don't need any).
Good luck with the mining.

I don't have S2 but my 10 S1 still work very well at the ambient ~36oC. I'm from Vietnam.I have a bunch of S1 ants (~2000w worth) and S2 is/are coming.

Thanks. Would you care for a free s2 coupon? It is yours if you want it. Let me know your bitmain ID.

Is that 10USD up??
Well, BTC is up ~15% from the flat, and Bitmain wants to partake. This makes you feel great about the Juan's group buy.
