And do you feel this heat really warming the room?
Or do you think it won’t be as efficient if the space is a little bigger?

But for where it is now, no there is no way it could do ANYTHING due to the size of the room where it is.
Running it in the small back room of my condo it did do A LITTLE bit but you are talking about early spring temps in a 200 square foot (18.5 square meter) room.

I can see it in places like that, or where there is a little chill that a hundred watts and change can bump up the temp those couple of degrees to make things more comfortable.

Personally, I put my Nano 3 on the desk from time to time, pointed at my hands that might get a little chilly in autumn / winter. It's a nice warm breeze, but even at 125W it will mathematically just never significantly change an entire room's average temperature. Now on to replying to some more recent stuff.. sorry for jumping over more than 10 pages. Wink

Yeah, I was very surprised when I opened my package. I had heard about some 'early bird thank you gift', but didn't know what to expect. This is just funny: a keychain to mess up your opsec and a fan that needs USB-A which is nowhere on either the PSU or the miner.. Cheesy

For what it's worth, I don't think the power supply really needs active cooling.

Has anyone successfully factory reset their Avalon Nano 3 completely? I've done it twice now and while I need to redo wifi, it retains whatever pool information I've previously put in. Trying to address a new issue where suddenly it's giving me the red ring of death Network Status issue where it shows 0 ms.

Try to change the usb cable, I had those issues and they were resolved when I changed the cable, before that I tried to flash the firmware, reset the device in every possible way I could find, nothing helped, really weird especially because the previous cable worked for months, then I just changed the location of the device and it stopped working with that cable for some reason (network red 0ms)

Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a go. Finicky little things!

The cable MUST be USB-CPD and tagged for at least 140W. A 'standard' cable is NOT made for and cannot support the PD protocol which allows a PSU and device to negotiate what voltage/current is used.. A PD cable has a chip in it that identifies how much power it can deliver. Without that chip a standard cable will only allow the PSU to deliver 5v 1A and the nano requires 28V @ 5A.

I'd be interested in selling mine with the PSU if anyone was looking at grabbing one. Immediate shipping and BTC accepted.

Why do you sell that device?

"A Last farewell" post to say my Avalon Nano 3 started smelling funny, blinking, then burned up Shocked

- well, no actual fire but the smell told me it's burned off "something!" This only mining 'Medium' level.

All this even after puttting on some cobber heatdispatchers (so can't use return garanties) Sad

So this has been a waste of money. Seeing how many Avalon Nano 3's have issues, while some others do not, I'm definitively not going to buy another due to poor stability
and now: It's selfdestruct.

(se my other posts on AN3 here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/ya5on-3650780 )

I have written to https://mineshop.eu/contact-us saying I'm willing to try another one (and that I will remove this post if they do send a new one). I feel this is within reason to write as the heat inside is very high (AN3 cannot even mine on 'High' (Why have 'High-setting???).

(But this worked good to power AN3: https://lysiq.se/usams-us-um-gan-snabbladdare-140w-2m-usb-c-kabel-2x-usb-c-1x-usb-a-kit/)

Neither the Avalon Nano 3 nor the power adapter have this feature. Honestly, this is a very strange company.

Yep.
They were probably thinking, "well most folks have a few phone chargers w/USB-A ports laying around... " Roll Eyes

More wires hah

I heard that Canaan is sending fans to those who purchased the Nano 3, to help cool the equipment, without being requested by customers. Reportedly they are offering the fans.

Does anyone here confirm that they received something?

Yeah, and a keychain..

Not sure if that thing actually helps but OK..

Are they sending to those who bought miner+adapter or also for those who only bought the miner? I seriously need that.,

This area is for Bitcoin only. Period.
If you want to mine crapcoins ask in the Altcoin areas - not here.

My avalon ran for 3 months on HIGH. Today it does not want to start - apparently there is a problem with the power USB port. I am using the original power supply. Apparently there is a problem with the design of the power port. Angry

you should never run it on high mode.

my miner restarts every 5 mins in med power.

it could be overheating of the adapter or cable is not 3.1 PD which i doubt.
waiting for a mini fan to install on the adapter and then check.

If you want to SSH into the miner. User is: nano and Password is: nano as well.
Unfortunately the device has 2 accounts: admin and nano and I can't find out the password for the admin account.
Canaan support is trying to convince me that there was no SSH on those units which is obviously wrong.
If anyone knows the admin password, please let the other kids know. Thank you.

Yep, I found the same, User: nano; Password: nano. This is kind of maddening that I didn't guess.

Was able to figure this out based on https://afflicted.sh/avalon_nano_3.html, and hashcat.

I am currently fireing 3 password lists with Medusa at the miners... let's see how long it takes to find that pesky admin password ^^

Edit: It may be possible to download the firmware and modify the usergroups on in. I'm not going to mess with the firmware but someone experienced could maybe find out the pass that way.
