+5.000usd for the same unit that was sold at 1.500usd when the difficulty was MUCH lower. It seems SO WRONG to me....
Note pre-order users paid high risks the chip will ever work or not.
Business done right.

This is business done right ?!  Roll Eyes

Yeah, business done right in a ponzi-style fashion. First one to jump in takes the big cut, last ones remain holding the bag (and broken).

I thought AVALON was a serious company.

  after I setup   the ip   address ,  it  show "  luci  - Lua configuration interface"
What shall  I  do?   Who can  help me? Sad

See the "cgminer" tabs?  Check those out.

Sorry if I'm asking in the wrong thread but here it goes:

Are there any significant differences between batches #1 and #2? any expected for #3?

Batch 2 units cost $140 more, after you account for shipping.

Batch 2 units "might" have 6 module slots instead of 4, but would still ship with only 3 modules initially installed.

A different payment processor is used for each batch.

your utility is very low!
assuming that you are in a stratum pool try to set variable difficulty at 64 to 66, i am not sure about the exact number though :p

Where do I set that?

it's usually in the registration of your worker at the pool you use that you can set the initial value, but as far as I understand the pool will adjust according to your work results. So it should only have an impact on the first activities


Thanks, I just found out this option under worker settings, now I set it to 64 and see what's going to happen...

No batch 2 ASICs have been received AFAIK.

Any differences according to description?

Nothing other than something in an email along the lines of learning from problems they had in batch 1.

Edit: Also, batch 1 were a couple of hundred dollars cheaper.



Wasn't there something about adding an extra slot of time allows?



I'll rephrase that, then:

Nothing confirmed other than something in an email along the lines of learning from problems they had in batch 1.

Anyone have such high HW errors? What does this indicate?

Hi luffy
how big should it be (Utility)?
I have also about 30.5. (vardiff 32)
Edit: With vardiff 64 i get 15.5 Utility
Utility doesn't mean much on variable difficulty ...
To check your diff1 utility, obviously, 60*Difficulty Accepted/Elapsed

e.g. for SolarSilver above me:

60 * 1160672 / 69956 = 995.49 1diff shares a minute

To verify that: 995.49 * 2^32 / 60 = 71.26GH/s

P.S. don't read this, I'm evil

Edit: N.B. of course utility doesn't map exactly to MH/s - that mathematical relationship is random and converges over a long period of time
So really I should have written above
To verify that: 995.49 * 2^32 / 60 ~= 71.26GH/s

How loud are these things? Also looks like if you have 20amp circuits you can only have 3 units per circuit  assuming you don't have a ton of other stuff already plugged in! Then maybe just 2. So much power use...
Avalon unit use 620W @ 120V so it draw 5.17amp/unit. It's not recommended to load a circuit over 80% capacity. So 80% of 20amp = 16amp. 3 units @ 5.17amp = 15.51amp. No problem with 3 units.

At 220V and 600W (I don't have the exact spec but the unit should be a little more efficient) it draw 2.73amp/unit so it's possible to connect 5-6 units (13.9-16.38amp) using the same wire gauge.

It might be a good idea for some user to hire an electrician to install a custom circuit.


Disclaimer : I'm not an electrician so double check these numbers with a professional.
