Anybody have a coupon that they don't need?
I probably would order with coupon, but without it is a tough call.
PM me, please.

And the buy button just went live, despite the large expense, I wonder how long until they sell out of batch #1?
Good luck to everyone buying these ! Looks like some great gear, but this time around, instead of buying a fancy new miner, I did the following and will HODL.
Lets see which will be the better investment 9 months down the road.
Thank you I am running this puppy. I really am looking forward to doing a review on it.
My payment has been confirmed. It will be nice to be running this soon.

Day-night rates never pay for mining, as a flat usage pattern will cost more on that sort of tariff. I don't have any sort of climate charge and standing fee is about £1 a day.
At the time 11.2p was the best I could get on a normal tarriff so it did work out cheaper.Not sure how you manage to avoid the CCL, and 8p is a very low price so you are lucky.
I was on 14.04p with SSE but just got on a SSE 12 Month fixed offer at 9.43p. So will be able to make a little money until BTC Halving, after that very little chance other than using them as low cost heaters.
Have never seen a single rate tarrif at 8p, does that include VAT & who is it with?
I think its 8.42 inc 5% VAT, with "Extra Energy". They must be a regional / small one as I'd never heard of them until I moved here.

I haven't bought since the S3+, so Bitmain didn't offer me any coupons.
If anyone has spare coupons I'd appreciate it.

Looks like no coupons for S5 buyers - oh well, if anyone has an extra that won't be used I'll happily make use of it. 
My username on bitmain is the same as here.
My username on bitmain is the same as here.Seems to depend on when you bought your S5 - I got 2 coupons for buying out of the first "batch 7" (used) group.
Not sure if I'm going to use both, but definitely plan to use one of them when I get the coin together.
The S5 might have "officially" limited at 35C, but it could run hotter - just had to downclock it some.
Mine have seen brief periods pushing 40c ambient.
I'm sure the S7 will run at >40, just that's the max temp the "specified" rate is more-or-less guarenteed to be achieveable at.

It varies, the "Time of Day" rate here (which I presume is the sort of tariff you're talking about) DOES in fact save money for anything that's on 24/7. +40% for 65 hours vs -50% for 103 hours, which is actually inferior to the "ToD" rate modifications from the last 2 places I lived.

well lets see how bitmain will deal with this overpriced miner issue
Unfortunately, by recent Bitmain pricing standards, it's not overpriced. It's actually a hair LESS than I expected for the TH and power draw.

- Operating Temperature: 0 °C to 40 °C
Operating Temp is really low 40C? Other miners as well as bitmain units operated up to 60C.
That is only 104F or so. Hope you got air conditioning or live in a northern region.
The S5 has a limit of 35C. These are ambient temps, but I can see a data center getting higher than 40C and certainly higher than 35C without AC.
I'm sure there's many S5's that have been running at ambient temps above 35C in the past couple months. Any performance issues?
Right, but I'm in the tropics and the lowest the temp goes this time of year at night is 27C, daytime temps at 33C. With a little AC my S5s have not been in ambient temps above 35C. Without AC it would easily go above 40C during the day. I'm wondering what would happen above those temps. For an S5 with stock fans the board readings would probably still be in the mid-60s. I've run an S5 with quiet fans with temps in the low-mid 70s for months without any impact on performance or efficiency (edit - I'm not recommending this, btw, I'm sure running it that hot carries a higher risk of malfunction).
I'm curious to see how the S7 would handle higher ambient temps given the dense chip arrangement.

Mining still dead in the UK at $0.23, and shipping to a host is probably going to be a year to breakeven when the inevitable diff rises happen so no new machines for me 
Who are you with, I'm on 8p/KWh (0.12$/KWh).I'm currently with Eon on a business tariff, I was spending around £1500-£2000 a month and shopped around for the best deal which at the time was
11.83p day rate
6.76p night rate.
Which is an average of 10.56p, then add on the standing charge, climate charge (which goes up quite high when you start spending the above amount) and VAT** and you are up to 15p = $0.23
Now granted electric rates might have come down since then, but I only have a Titan left here, everything else has been sold or shipped abroad.
** I know you will mention claiming the VAT back as we have had this conversation before, but according to my accountant and further consultation with HMRC, because the item that you are selling (BTC) does not atrract VAT, you cannot claim the VAT back for the process of making them. You can claim the VAT back on buying the machines as you charge it when you sell them.

Bitcoin miners are (home) heaters, the hiting by-product are related bonus points - also known as BTC. The manufacturers sells for them (or for many) new and more powerful heaters aka bitcoin miners.
So explain mining protsess to your tax official.

Shipping cost to the states isn't bad at least - I get $34.24 for one, $57.82 for two. I'm on the fence on these... a coupon might push me over
