Im not a happy customer at all.

We sent 2x S7 hashing boards for warranty replacement well over 6 weeks ago at out own cost.

They agreed to replace both but it took them 4 weeks to admit they had received them.

The 2 replacements boards were sent a week ago and have arrived but they have sent incorrect parts  Angry

They have sent 2x S5 hashing boards instead of the S7 boards expected, im really pissed off now im fed up of being polite with Bitmain as they have been pissing me about for well over 4 weeks now.

How the hell do I get this resolved, not only have they sent me 2x S5 boards they are in terrible condition, very messy with burn marks on them  Angry

I have put pictures below of what's arrived.

Bitmain QA, or the lack thereof, strikes again!

I'm gonna go out on my limb and say outloud many many S7's will come to a sad ending soon. What did you expect from a cheaply constructed Chinese junk machines?

my batch 2 is still running  this runs at freq 512.5

as is my batch 1  but it never would do freq 600 .   I have run it at freq 525 since October of 2015

Well hell.  My batch 8 has developed a problem.  It started beeping and I happened to be nearby so I checked out the GUI and the hashrate was slowly dropping to zero.  I noticed that one hashboard said the temp was 96 and two of them said temp 0.  So I rebooted through the GUI, it came up and started mining but the temps all say 0 now.  I did a power cycle and same thing, all zeros.  At least it is hashing though so that's good.  It didn't overheat, it is sitting next to a couple other S7's and the temp where they are didn't get up past room temperature and the other machines are fine.  When I powercycled it I did gently move it around to check for a loose heatsink but there wasn't anything detectable, plus I think those were mostly in earlier batches.  But now all zeros on the temps.  Lame.

i`ve add the same issus happens to me on a S4 and a S5, reflashing the machine ( even if it;s the same revision ) cured my problems both times, actually the s5 i had to flash 3 times. let it sit for a day than came back to life the next flashing. try it out.

I ended up having to do this.  After working fine for a couple days with all zeros for the temps the sensors did wig out and one reported 96 and another reported 32 so it stopped hashing again.  The weird thing is, after reflashing it, only those two boards are reporting a temp (a normal one now) but the third board is still showing zero.  Something tells me a reset to default would cure this but I'll wait until the machine gives me no other option.

Long long ago I was told to reflash when I had a S3 miner with one temp not working... did not fix my problem then.   But some have had luck with it all the way to day's of S3 and temp sensors.  Just be careful as flashing can be bad if something goes wrong.

As long as one has accurate temp you should be fine (not so much if one is to high).  But if you have one working right.... it should be ok.

Yeah a good quiet  small cheap miner will always sell.
Point it at peercoin and solo mine .

It would be nice to solo mine Peercoin.... but... my Antminers, mining directly off the peercoin wallet/RPC, mine for something like 30 seconds then quit.

I also set up two different pools to try and mine solo.... a 100% uNOMP pool which came up with the infamous parse error... and a MPOS / NOMP pool which also came up with the parse error.

uNOMP / NOMP is the problem, from what I'm reading, Peercoin RPC cannot handle batch RPC something-or-another.... where as Bitcoin can, thus making peercoin different and not compatible with uNOMP/NOMP.

Does anyone know of pool software that is compatible with peercoin?Huh I'd need a step by step guide for setup.

Or, is there some sort of fix to get the antminers solo mining off the wallet RPC?

Looking at the load monitors, it looks like a network flood to and from the S5's when solo mining off the wallet, like its running with a difficulty of 1 or something ... Any way of telling the antminer or the wallet to mine with a higher diff?

Sorry for being a little off topic.... but peercoin solo mining was mentioned...

yeah but look at what sidehack is doing..
he is selling a usb miner. that is 8ghs and costs 25$
this is around 3$ a ghs.

putting that in perspective that would make a s7 cost like 14,687$ (i do suck at math so maybe not)


so if bitmain made a 100$ miner that did like 100W and 300 ghs i think it would sell pretty good.

they seem to be selling a lot of those R1s for 50$ and it only does 5ghs.

Why would people buy this over new S7 or used S1. New S7 is more efficient and used S1 is cheaper.

he has sold 1000s of them.. i even got 5 myself.

they are only 1w or so, so the efficiency is far above a s7..

it just goes to show how far bitmain missed the market.

if they made a u4, with s7 chips, and sold them for 60-80$ i am pretty much 100% positive they will sell out in the pre-order.




yeah there is big demand for sub 100$-150$ miners...too bad the u3 did not live up to expectations...and you had to order 10 or something

There were some good resellers though.  I got mine through crazy guy and got 1 and liked it went for 2 more through him.  In the end had 3 of them.  I enjoyed them for a while with a R1 as controller.

After a while I did sell them through Ebay and I roughly broke even. (Might have had a few dollars profit but nothing much after fee's and such).  I enjoyed playing with them but after a while I sold a lot of my lotto mining components as I was losing interest.

I have 5 x BTC0.05 Antminer S7 Coupons and would like to sell it for BTC0.19. Anyone interested can PM me with your BITMAIN ID and I'll send you the coupon right away.
I'm literally in need of money, so, if anyone could help me it'd be great. I don't wanna lose faith in this forum. Please help people.
You are asking too much. They are worth only 0.25
He's in a dire financial situation, bought too many miners thinking he was gonna make a killing mining for bitcoins. Greedy noob mistake.

You should never invest more then you can lose.  I started out with 1 GPU rig (long ago).  From there  I kept moving fast but I made sure my on paper profit.... equaled profit in real life.   Asics I have been lucky enough to get a decent amount off past profit's so it's a risk I can afford.  

But never go to fast or deeper in then you know you can support.  Bad idea and could lead to bad first experiences.

How much do you offer?
Thanks, but I'm settled with my current set of Antminers and I already donated my S7 coupons.
