I had the same issue Blokforge was able to source some for me after bothering them for a solid week.
The 1041 with separate PSU? I have 3 of them that so far are rock solid but foresee *that* PSU as impossible to get from Canaan if 1 dies.
The 1066 PSU I'm surprised at - no replacement for it?
As for the 1047's the only odd thing I've seen is that every couple days they can restart themselves. Not sure what triggers it and not all of them do it - out of 5 of them only 2 do that.

Hate to bring this thread back up, how is everyone's 10 series running? I ended up purchasing a large amount of 1047's from Blokforge and with my current electricty rat of .04 kwh these are like the new s9s! I have been getting random shutdowns of my 1066s though and do not understand what can cause this.
i had 2 1041’s one is now dead.
i had 2 1066’s one is now dead.
both were psu failures.
i was unable to source replacement psu’s

Has anyone tested out the power consumption of the latest 1066 and 1047 firmware? The release notes say they optimized power consumption.

Also, has anyone played with the "Privileged Firmware"?
https://github.com/Canaan-Creative/avalon10-docs/blob/master/Privileged%20API/Previleged%20API%20USER%20MANUAL%20v0.6.pdf
update: I had my host test out my 1066s with the updated firmware and the power consumption came out to 65W/th in both "High Performance" and "Normal" modes. No efficiency gain for normal mode.

I remember with the older Avalons you you could adjust voltage/frequency/fan speed. Not sure if its possible with this input, don't remember the commands.
Now that the More Options entry box is back we just have to wait for someone to find what the command formats for it are. The A7, 8, & 9's all have their quirks in the the commands used... ^ Just because you had some bad 741 units, doesn't mean that the overall quality is shit.
Like i said, build quality is good. The efficiencies are 12 months behind competitors, and therefor the least profitable to run in the long term. They are always the first miners to unplug.
Just noticed that that they posted new firmware:
https://www.canaan.io/service/447
Ill try it out and post the results.
Looks like the new firmware added fields for additional pools. No low power mode though
. Just normal and performance.I also see they added:
CGMiner Configuration:
More options text box.

If you take an AvalonMiner next to other vendor miners,
it is a high probability that the AvalonMiner will last the longest without issues.

Yep. I'm at $0.05/kw, so efficiency is important for me. I guess if you have cheap power, then they are good for that reason. The heat sink design seems far superior than the individual heat sinks in bitmain miners. But i still have 3 year old S9s that are still running today, and bought them the same time as my 741s.
... Yes reliable, but Canaan's miners are always the first to brick.
Er? 'Reliable' and '1st to brick' are completely opposite unless you are talking about taking them offline due to eff reasons.
If that's the case, ja I have a nice pile of 721/741/821's and a few 841's accumulating that are now offline because of their lack of efficiency. But, I'm still running dozens of Avalon miners - 10 remaining 841's (half in low power space heater mode), a couple 921's and the rest A10xx. Aside from losing a fan on 2 of the oldest 721's I've had zero problems with them. I prefer that to the even bigger pile of DEAD s9/T9's I have...
I don't understand why they don't have a low power setting by now. Would be nice.
Just disappointed in general with Canaan's products. You would think they would try to help people out by being able to undervolt. The efficiency is not that great on 1047, approx 66 w/th;
Even my S9s I can get down to 75 w/th with brains os, and they are almost 3 years old. My Innosilicon T3s can undervolt very well, they are in low 50w/th, to high 40w./th.
I had quite a few 741s back in the day, and regretted buying them. Yes reliable, but Canaan's miners are always the first to brick.

Phillip is one hundred and ten percent correct, a switch may also solve this as well, I always recommended running a switch anyways. I knew someone else who had an issue with a cheap cheap router, put it on an old switch I gave him and worked like a charm.
Using a higher end cisco switch could be helpful. All my miners go through refurbished cisco switches into a verizon router.
I did verizion >>>> 16 port switch>>>> I used this to connect to all gear in warehouse including the 4x 48 port cisco switches.
30 miners each of the 4 switches
all are 1 gigabyte switches.

they may have been the ones above. Or maybe these on ebay

almost certain they were the ones from that ebay seller.

As PassThePopcorn said, this could very well be the issue, the radio setting issue I was experiencing was causing a connectivity issue just for the 10 series miners not anything else. Apparently it is not recommended to use a router such as the routers provided from Verizon for mining coin as they have a low threshold of the number of devices that can connect, most are 6 or 7, I would hope on miners peak on telegram that is where I was able to find this information.
This might not be the same but the first A10 I received had a DNS issue on DHCP, I first had to set it to static change the DNS then put it back to DHCP. Whatever DNS they were using in China didn't always resolve from here.
This is an issue with a router, I have had a 1047 do this, I swapped networks and the miner runs fun, I know those verizon routers have had issues with a "radio setting"
Do you know anything else about this radio setting? Verizon said the only radio setting for the router was to turn off wireless . They also reset the router and said there are no problems with the network. Which is true except for the 1047.

It does not connect or I would. I tried turning off most devices connecting wirelessly and power cycling the router but this made no change. I still received 4 red blinks around every 20 or 30 seconds. Unless someone has a suggestion, I am thinking my next step is to try a different router.
Anybody know the blink codes for a 1047? It runs high then low for around 30 seconds, the LED blinks red 4 times, goes quite for a second and then does it all again.
Edit 1: I just discovered that I only receive the blink code when the LAN cable is plugged in. I tried different cables and different ports on the router and both made the LED blink red 4 times around every 30 seconds. I do not know what else to try or what is causing the problem.
Edit 2: Currently thinking that the miner has an issue with the router. Does anyone have any experience with this miner and a Verizon Actiontec router?

Can you log into the miner and go to the cgminer log then copy paste that here with code tags
