Hi Arklan,

Now that you've had time to test these suckers, what is your average actual Mh/s? Just curious.

This is after 18 hours. Something is funny, I'm not getting Th/s out of them.

Code:

 (5s):2.511G (avg):1.695Ph/s | A:8207  R:10  HW:312  U:7.5/m  WU:32.9/m

Yeah, something isn't right. Your accepted shares is really low too.

Mine seem to settle in at 334.2MH/s

That's about right. As for my accepted shares, let me guess, 4+ times as low as they should be? Note the difficulty 4. The pool I use has variable diff, but I can't configure it. So with 4 sets of miners, everything ends up at 1 difficulty. To reduce my (and pool ops) bandwidth, I run them through the stratum proxy (look at screenshot), which funnels it all to one user on the pool's side. That kicks up the difficulty to 4, sometimes 8.

M

Have you tried connecting to another pool directly? Simplifying your setup might help you to identify the problem.

Everything seems to be working fine.. just visually it's messed up. As long as I keep getting paid, I don't care.

Well, that decision got easy.

It stopped hashing again within an hour of being brought back up. It now will not initialize / hash at all. (The other one merrily starts hashing every time I plug it in.)

I've got a bad one, arklan, please ship a replacement.

BTW, I'm happy with it if you ship one you've been using for a while and has a 'known good' status rather than you pulling a cold one from the replacement inventory to send me.

Should I use the return address on the package these came in?
Or do you wish to email an address for me to use in shipping this one back?

And, please cross-ship the replacement. I.e., don't wait to get the bad one before shipping the replacement. (PM me if you want a deposit for that.)

And please send it Express / Next Day delivery. Send me the cost for that and I'll send the BTC to cover that charge.

return address is fine. PM me if you can't read it. Cheesy

I'll let it run overnight and see what I get.

Will report back sometime tomorrow.

In a 12 hour run the 'troublesome' one stopped mining at about the 8 hour point. It averaged about 10% hw errors for the period it stayed up. The good one just under 1% hw errors.

It initially wouldn't restart by removing / replugging into the USB hub. (Continuous "returned e46f2c6c instead of 5eb01f04" errors.)

Left it unplugged a couple minutes and it is hashing again now. Again with about 10% versus < 1% hw errors compared to the other one.

arklan,

What is your experience with invalids for the ones you have been running, please?

Got mine about 4 hours ago.

First testing - mpbm on the pi crashed when I added the two new ones to the mix.

Set up on another machine for testing and one of the two:

1) always produces a few "Exception: Mining device is not working correctly (returned e46f2c6c instead of 5eb01f04)" on start up

and

2) it is generating 17 to 1 (compared to the other) invalids. About 10% invalid share rate.
(With only a 35 minute run-time on them so far.)

I am inclined to call one of my two as bad. I don't consider 10% invalid acceptable.
I've got a fan blowing over them and they are both merely 'warm to the touch'.

I'll let it run overnight and see what I get.

Will report back sometime tomorrow.

I am not bitching because of how everything was run I am bitching because I hate USPS..... package was at my post office at 5:10 am and out on the truck for delivery... because it was signature required my postal carrier never fucking delivers them.... I always get a card saying I have to go into the office. I always ask the same question "why" and I always get the same answer "They aren't supposed to do that" I was home, wife was home and mother-in-law was home. Wife was in yard most of the morning that fucker is just lazy.... Likewise if the package is too big to fit in the damn box... always get a card.... I hate USPS.... fuck USPS...

I will have them monday though.. thanks arklan you did wonderfully.

I received mine about 10 minutes ago.

It WAS signature required FYI y'all.

Also, yesterday USPS tracking said it would be delivered probably on Monday. This morning it said it would come today, which it obviously did...

I don't have time to plug it in and try to get it working until tomorrow.

I gave Arklan almost $30 for postage (4 units) and the best you could do is first class mail? I'm disappointed.

as you can see in this very thread, things got complicated - i wasn't ALLOWED to do more the first class without using the priority prepaid envelopes. which they didn't have.

as i've said before, i'll be happy to send some btc your way if your upset.

That's why I sent you an email on May 9th suggesting you get in touch with your post office to have them know you will need the priority mail packaging. Ah well... seems they are all shipping now? Hopefully we get them soon. Did they get DoA testing? Any of them prove to be DoA?

Would you do it all again knowing what you know now? lol

The post office is a mess. It's government run, which explains it all. If it was private, it would have gone bankrupt a long time ago.

Shipping hassles, long lines, and being government run is why I use UPS for larger packages (like GPUs and PSUs).

Is there a consensus on the best miner to use with these?

If you're using linux, the newest cgminer is supposed to work out of the box. If you're using windows, you have to install few things first. See: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/how-to-use-asicminer-block-erupters-with-cgminer-on-windows-7-220450

Some people, particularly LukeJr, recommend the cgminer clone, bfgminer. I've never used it, and I never intend to.
