Do you know if there has been a conformation on if timeframe looks like they will meet it?:

We expect our first batch of Avalon6 miners to arrive at our California datacenter by November 10, 2015.
The only thing I have seen mentioned was from lee's group buy thread that A6 was delayed to the end of this week. 

avalon delayed the shipment of a6 to the end of this week, bitmain release new s7 now, seems like new s7's hashrate is not stable for single unit, so they want to sell according to real hash rate of miner, the price for large order exceeding 1P hash rate is 430$ per T h/s. so i will sell according to 470$ per T h/s(40$ for psu and other fee). you can reply with how much hashrate you want to buy, then i can decide how much i should order.
Ok
new s7, 470$ per T hash/s Smiley

Anybody can vouch for the legitimacy of the BLOCKC entity: http://www.blockc.co/ ?

I want to order the MOQ of 10 to test them, but they look kind of new..

Yes I can vouch. Blockc is the official reseller in US. Im in direct contact with Xiang Fu (Avalon) and Sean (Blockc).

You can check blockc blog to see Sean with Xiang Fu.

Im also working with Avalon for some projects.

Will you be making a MOQ 10 order, or thought about doing a group buy?
Probably but I will do it for Canadian customer. Maybe check with Philipma1957 for a US group buy.

Who can tell where the factory is placed where they manufacture these Avalon 6s?   Roll Eyes

I can confirm a string design.  I have been communicating with them and was told it is.

I'm almost sure it is, one of the reason is that they need a fixed voltage of 12v +/- 0.2v to operate.

Minimum order of 10 in the link up there.

Where else can one purchase  The Hand of God that is Avalon6

If the Avalon 6 can be undervolted, that would make it somewhat more attractive - similar to the SP20 vs the S5 - and would help it's value some.

 I still doubt it would be significantly profitable past the July 2016 block reward halfing though.

 UnderCLOCK on ASIC miners generally has no noticeable effect on efficiency.

Warranty:

Avalon miners include a 90 day warranty, starting from the date goods are received.

Is this (90 days for private customers) compatible with existing US law?

Avalon 6 is an interesting unit, but higher cost per TH and lower efficiency than the S7 (close on both though), you pretty much NEED 3cent.KWH or less electric cost to have any chance at achieving RoI on either unit.

 The Avalon 6 IS aimed a bit better at the "home mining" market, though.

S7 still has no serious competition. Yet.



don't know that you are correct first off the avalon 4.1 could be down volted and under clocked.....  so if the 6 can do this it may be more efficient then the s-7.

Second if the rasp pi dies you can have a backup on hand and ready for avalon for under 50 bucks


to back up the s-7 controller you need 2 s-7's as they will piggy back on to each other.  In fact this is true with the first s-7 batch. No one has shown if batch 2 or 3 controllers with new firmware can do that.

Myself I have 2 s-7's but I will very likely order an avalon 6 to test it for under volt under clock.
