I did use UPS so maybe that will help.

Forget about UPS !
I'ts a mess. They don't even know themselves when my package will arrive.
For more than 24Hrs schedule-delivery is not available.
The package should originally have arrived today (Friday)
It looks like they are generating status updates randomly with no sense.
May be it's lying on the ground of the Ganges.
The Weekend is coming, so the next earliest possible date is Monday. (1 Week)
This is very disapointing.

I always FedEx my shipments from Bitmain.  The thing arrives in 3 days from half way around the world with zero issues.  Course I haven't had the thrill of being spot checked by customs, but that's a risk everyone takes.

Yeah, well Bitfury has announced their 0,06 J/GH 16nm technology, so that will get interesting also.
Then there comes 21 with their 0,16 J/GH chip

So it will be getting interesting in here  Grin

I saw that to but Bitfury wont sell to the public if they do it's gonna shot thu the roof price wise and 21 just what does that do be side offer a new way of accessing the blockchain does it actually mine at 1.15 th or better . if that's all it does i can build a PI for far less like some one said in a post or have a PI now that can do it. is that worth 400 bucks , no.  i see what you mean by 0,16 J/GH chip .I'll wait till Nov for that one.

I was going two buy 2 s7 at least but the price stopped me .it's more a disappoint meant to me then anything for the s7 price.

You are absolutely right you will almost certainly have to sell it in order to break even. I would argue you will need to do that well before July 2016 (approximately), when the BTC block reward is halved.

That´s what i think also  Wink

Batch one was already sold out a few days before the announcement by Spondooliestech.  The SP50 has nothing to do with the "sold out" announcement of batch one.  Bitmain, is a straight up company and much appreciated.  At least by me.

What im wondering sense there is none up for sell on the site now

which is unlike them or is normally unlike them even for a batch one .

did they make what they wanted at this price ?

 over the S3 or S5 price ?.


Is Spondoolies-Tech's new miner coming a worry to them and they are holding posting any more for sell etc etc   ....

or is the price going to drop they know they  have a lot of back lush to deal with when they do they need to think it thu .

or that's it for batch one ?

or batch one was just a test run to see if that price would work ? .

and  a bigger more expensive one is coming in batch 2, because of Spondoolies-Tech's new miner. seems strange when Spondoolies-Tech made that announcement they went off sell .

Thy turned from seeming to care into a big business way, not many personal inter action on the forums any more etc etc . Ive noticed unless you pay them a lot which is normal for big business, I'm not upset that's just how it is .

Just my out look , I'm not trying to start anything or be disrespect full , i fill let down at the price.

Dammit, I want one. Has anyone run ROI through a calculator based on ~$.10kWH?

I can go do it, but if someone has it off the top of their head...

Don't forget your power costs:

At $.10/Kwh, I don't think you break-even before the halving in 2016. Unless of course Bimtain delivers YOUR S7 for say $1500, or maybe they limit deployment of the S7 (i.e. sales), or maybe Spondoolies delays deployment of the SP50 until well into 2016, or maybe BTC price goes up to $300 next week and stays there (or above).

Just keeping adding enough parts to an optimistic scenario, and I am sure you can make it work out!  Smiley

Do not take the purchase price 1 to 1 into your ROI calculation. If you assume, that you can resell your S7 in a year for 75% of your primal purchase, you will ROI pretty fast  Grin
Just my thoughts.... Roll Eyes

I believe the blinking red light is described in the Kernel Log as "error_fan 4, normal_fan 2, fan_num 1". This error was showing up every 10 seconds in the log, but seems to have spontaneously stopped for the last hour and the red blinking light is off and now the normal green blinking light is on. I still think the miner is pulling too many watts. And I'm curious if others have the large difference in RPMs between the two fans. I described the issue to Bitmain in a support ticket. We'll see what they say.

BITMAIN, has always given me good service with defective rigs I've received in the past.  Keep us updated please.

Try this one  Wink

I would rather use bitcoinwisdom calc https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/calculator

It turns out to be pretty much the same

my fans are 4200 and 3960 right now.

4h39m46s     4,837.35   4,634.77


temps about 50

will be able to put a killawatt on one tomorrow

Got my S7 today! And my first post Smiley  Been running for a couple hours and getting almost exactly 4.86 TH/s at default 600MHz...and has not had a single HW. It is using more power than I expected. I have it connected to one Antec HCP-1300 Platinum and it is showing 1,350watts with a Kill A Watt meter at the wall. The brief info card that came with it also said it uses 1,210watts and would use about 1,400watts at the wall with a standard server power supply. Wasn't it supposed to be 1,210watt at the wall with a 93% efficiency power supply? I was expecting about 1,250watts at the wall with my Antec HCP-1300 running at around 90% efficiency.

The red light is also blinking on the miner. Not sure how to figure out what the issue is, as it is hashing at expected rate as shown by the miner and the pool. I'm thinking maybe a fan problem. Without manually changing the fan speed, Fan 1 is always running at 4,560 and Fan 2 always runs at 3,120. Temp is 58-60c for all three boards in 23c ambient basement. When I try to manually set the fan speed, it doesn't change much. At 50% the fans run at 4,000/3,000. At 80% it is 4,200/3,120. My S5s work as expected when I manually adjust the fan speed.

It would be interesting to see others adjust their fan speeds as well to see if both fans are close to the same RPM's or if they are substantially different as yours are.  AND to see if they also have the red light you are speaking of.

My order was supposed to arrive today via DHL, but it was held up today at customs.  Spoke to DHL and they say customs wanted to x-ray the package before it was cleared. Delivery is now scheduled for tommorrow.....

Same thing happened to me with previous shipments except it was a friday, followed by a holiday weekend.   Cry

They have to much time on their hands if they are x-raying miners.   Seems like opening a box or two should confirm it. 

I really don't like my local DHL.   It's the service I avoid.    But some claim they work great for them.

Mine arrived late tonight. I'm getting 4.8 THS with frequency at 600 . I'm ok with that. Maybe it will increase overnight.

It's louder than my S5s. I got a blinking green light...not a red one.

Sounds good...  I would be happy with that.

As for the blinking red light the other person has on their S7 and the fans that have a substantial difference in RPM's, I'm beginning to wonder if it has issues.

So no radiators fall down from the asics? or from the back of the asics and blades??

Thx!

Not with mine. It was packaged well too.
