It works, just set as S1

No I don't.  And I only have one S1 now.

Here's a diagram...



The tricky part was finding the best spot for the PSU.  Fortunately the cables are just long enough to fit everything as depicted here, perhaps with the PSU a little further in.

Oh, ok I gotcha.

The OP was asking about physically stacking, you didn't have these stacked, correct?

No.  I tried stacking them and they rapidly overheated.  Maybe with the S3s enclosed that would work better.

This way I was able to use less space compared to just laying them horizontally.

Mine are sitting at 39* +/- 2* like this. They are also sitting up where the ac vent blows right into the intake fan so i'm guessing that helps. But they have been going solid for 5 hours now.


I do seem to have a lot of discarded shares though.. On one pool its roughly 5x the amount of my accepted shares and another pool its around 20x..

re: Silencing the beeper.

A short M3 bolt screws nicely into the hole on top of the buzzer.

Then again, I don't think it's needed to beep since I put it in - I had two beeps last night before I decided to shut it down to save being asked "what's beeping? has the freezer door been left open?" again.

Nice.

Do you have plans to add the S3 to your AntMonitor? Been watching your development on it since the early days and excited to try it out (hopefully) for the S3s Smiley

Yes I do.  The initial pricing of S3s was too high, I can't see them making an ROI.  I'm hoping the next round will be better.

That said, I thought I saw someone say my AntMonitor was giving good readings on their S3.  Although I did post in my thread if anyone had tried it yet, as they seem to be basically identical, just faster, than the S1, so I suspect they'll work when added as an S1... but not a single person has responded.

M

EDIT: I haven't been feeling the best recently, and my posts show it.  What I meant to say was I don't have any S3s yet because I believe they were overpriced.

Whats the best way to stack these? Currently I have mine on their side sitting on top of each other. Should I take off the cases or are they fine with them on? I don't plan on OC'ing ATM.

W/O a custom rig the best way is just on their sides like you have them. Double check temps to make sure they aren't causing any restrictions.

I put my S1s vertically, one simple 2x4s, with the inlet on the bottom, and outlet on the top.  I put a set (whatever I can fit on one PSU) together, spaced apart as wide as I can get them but still be in the airflow of a box fan.

Trying to visualize this.. do you have a pic of the setup?

No I don't.  And I only have one S1 now.

According to Canadian Customs, Bitmain shipped without a commercial invoice.  They found what could be an invoice, but it's written in Chinese, and they only accept English or French.  

I wonder if this could also be impacting shipments that haven't left China yet - maybe UPS is trying to prevent more shipments from leaving without the proper documentation.  

Perhaps Bitmain could pro-actively make everyone's commercial invoices available through our user accounts, in the appropriate currency and language, so we can resolve the customs issues ourselves (if they come up).

I just emailed Bitmain with this info, so hopefully I'll get this resolved ASAP.

Does anyone know which batch will be the next to preorder(3,4,...) and when we acctualy can begin to preorder.Also,when we can expect deliveries from this batch?

Nobody knows these answers.

Well then,any idea where I can buy some from the previous batches.I have a few sites in mind,just looking for the best buy.

We have Batch 2's for sale - theres a few others selling them in the Hardware section as well.

Do you have them in stock or preorder?

They have already been shipped, so in-hand by end of week we're aiming for.

Do you ship to Norway? Smiley

It looks like my order is now stuck in Canadian customs, as they are looking for proof of payment. 

Has anyone else had this issue? I could probably just print a screenshot of my order, stating that it was paid, but I wonder if I should get that directly from Bitmain showing the CAD $ value.  Any advice is welcome!
