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.

Yes, they updated the price daily.  If the price is $2244 today and tomorrow is $2244 and the day after that it is still $2244.  They updated the price, but unfortunately the prices stayed the same.

Price change daily is different from updating the price daily!

New price for AntMiner S2 1 TH/s Miner Batch 4: 2244 USD each one, shipping cost included.

New price for AntMiner S2 1 TH/s Miner Batch 4: 2264 USD each one, shipping cost included.

New price for AntMiner S2 1 TH/s Miner Batch 4: 2319 USD each one, shipping cost included.

And your point being...price did not change on May 21 and May 22

Sorry, didn't feel it necessary to state the obvious. It is still the 22nd which means they missed one day of price changes, not 3. Although, I did quote the previous change where they missed two days of price changes in a row. We all want them to lower prices with greater frequency and differential. I just don't see where misstating facts is going to increase their chances of doing that.

They update at 6 pm shanghai time. It is 1:25 am May 23 there, so may 22 is gone; the earliest time they can update will be on May 23, which is 3 days from May 20.

Thanks, I've always been confused at this "new math" stuff.
Note to self: "not updated in 3 days" means 2 days, on tomorrow. Whew. Got it. All hail the full member.  Smiley

It has been ~52hr 56 min or two full days plus almost 5hr since the last update as of right now. surely, it is much more than daily.
In any case, they don't really follow this rule, so it is largely irrelevant.
In addition, i don't care anymore-pulled a trigger on s2 for $1650 today, paid in BTC, hoping for a good product.

Just got my S2B4 in perfect shape. They have upgraded the slide rails to metal and also install metal braces on top to secure the boards. Although I removed the top braces now that its sitting.

Good news, they have also upgraded to Kingston 4GB microSD card from the old crappy ones. I didn't check what class it is, next time I reboot I will post.

No need, they're class 4.

I had nothing but problems with Kingston class 4 SD cards on my Bitfury rigs. They scrambled when the wind blew. I prefer Patriot class 10... rock solid. I never have to reimage now.

Received my Batch 4 S2's is perfect order, new case design fix the shaking loose issue and directing PSU's fan out of the case helps.

Shipping was beyond fast, Bitmain even predicted that I meant to buy 2 X S2 and shipped me the 2nd one to fix my mistake  Wink

I am ready for the 20% jump...  I hope


that'll be the PSU intake...

outlet is still out the back where the plug and power switch are....as always


Did you actually get a free S2??

No NOT free ($1919 after coupon), I agreed to accept their "mistake", I took it as a good omen.

What's the function of the tiny fan on the front just below the LCD?


probably to coolthe PSU cables if anything - its not really pointed anywhere critical but at the PSU. (it might also balance the airflow that the psu exhausts)

Thanks.
