Hi Ioshia,

I understand about 10-port USB hub, but the device on technobit site looks like an USB hub too??!!

I've tried to order that thing there on technobit site, but it looks like an usb hub, so I don't know if that is what I need to produce Bitcois...!? Also, please let me know how much GH/s you get with one of those things?

Sorry to disturb you and Thanks for answering.

Hey,
The picture posted is not a miner. It connects your miner via USB to Btc network. This device produces 0 btc.
You have to look for assambled board with chips included. This device produces coins not the tplink

If you have just on board you are good to go. You just need an usb cable and power. Otherwise consider buying USB hub(s) to connect more boards.
I guess you have a proper sized PSU to power your boards from?
In my rigs I am having 15 hexa connected to single tplink so I guess 10+ Avalon2 boards should be no problem

I have a 1200W Power Supply Unit Enermax Platimax
http://www.enermax.com/home.php?fn=eng/product_a1_1_1&lv0=1&lv1=52&no=174
Need to buy an USB hub also. I want more than one board.
Thanks a lot.

Buy this one if you can

It is hashing for sure with all technobit products. You can get it preflashed from their site to save some time and troubles for almost same prace.If you are new just by one from there
http://technobit.eu/index.php?id_product=37&controller=product&id_lang=1
It is cheaper compared to 40 euros

Ok, after ordering that I just have to setup and start mining or need more parts?
Sorry for my novice questions but I really want to learn and start somewhere.
Appreciate ypu help!

I got my TPlink box
from Maplins £39.99
I updated the firmware and
bang both of my miners working at 45Ghz in total

Happy mining

What and from where you got this? I'm new in this, need a bit help tp understand. If you're plesed with mining I might want to buy exactly the same... if it is possible. Thanks a lot.

I already ordered two in the december batch.... really considering maxxing out my credit card and buying two more for january delivery... What do you guys think the diff will be like at the end of january? Or should I just buy shares in a prospero or neptune? It somehow just seems nicer to have them at home so I can mine altcoins whenever I want.

Oh and how many can you chain off a single host?

Thx 4 the awesome review!!

I would seriously question about maxxing your credit card out... This business is a big gamble and the number one rule in gambling is never bet more than you afford to lose. As it stands currently there is insufficient confidence in BTC to make large investment questionable. Don't forget that when mining becomes unprofitable (the electricity costs more than the returns) you are going to be left with hardware that has no value. Many people already are questioning whether there is much money left to be made mining as the Terrahash hardware is only just around the corner. If you were seriously considering the credit card option it maybe more viable to pre-order and wait for this hardware - but again risky especially if delivery dates shift several months as past experience has shown... So, factor in interest payments into the proposition and I would say 'not for me' as it is debatable whether you can actually break even mining with the ever decreasing payouts that will occur - rather like that frog that starts from the centre of the pond and jumps half the distance towards the edge edge hop - he never quite makes it...

Excellent review and pictures

Any ideas on how you can link them together so uses one usb controller? What PSU would be the best ?

Thanks

Glad you liked it

There is no can-bus support in this revision of the board, so you'll need powered USB hub for more boards.

Do not need to be powered anymore.
Only Avalon gen1 based HEX16A requires powered hub.
With HEX16B and A2 you can used passive hub and to power even tp-link router from the boards and hub .
10x to our board designer for the efforts in this direction

Nice move! The TP-Link router doesn't seem to want to be fed 5v into the USB socket itself - so I am guessing there is a series blocking diode in the router so 5v output only from the USB... But I suspect it will be fairly easy to hardware mod the router to be able to take its 5v from the hub/HEX16A2/B by linking the 5v from the power input to the USB connector (or locating & shorting the series diode)... Then it is a very tidy solution.

HEX16A/B/A2 are equipped with 92mm fan SUNON EE92251S1-0000-A99 / 51.5 CFM / 34 dBA

Ideally putting <20dBA fans on in the 1st place would save us having to change them. Someone mention it to Marto pls. Wink

I've got a few 92mm noctuas lying around. Was meant for the LS and Jally.

Goodie! Cheesy
