As far as I know only Germany for Jalapeño and only because it doesn't not have a German how-to and has also US powerplug added...
But it is interesting that I can't find anyone who has samples received from BFL outside USA...

What about the rumours and reports that they seize or check BFL shipments due to missing CE or RoHS certifications in Europe? Maybe they're on yet another blacklist...

Not worry Lucko
Is simple airmail letter will do to arrived to you 10-12 days
All is ok I see at your USA tracking number
At the start of a GB I did promise that I will share all data(good and bed). This is not me being worried I'm just kipping my promise... and being a bit frustrated Is simple airmail letter will do to arrived to you 10-12 days
All is ok I see at your USA tracking number
Anyway there is another shipment that is on time and should be hire at the end of a week or at the start of next one... My Jala
for experimenting with alternative design and firmware... Would love to use a different method but that is the way it is... 3000€ for a board is just too much...

My jallies took about 5 working days to reach me. I'm guessing u will have a parcel either today or tomorrow

Got a replay from BFL:

Those are currently in customs, since they will be going over seas. Unfortunately, we do not know how long they will be there, but they will eventually reach you.
I'm sorry about the delay you are experiencing with your samples.
Kind regards,

Check your local country's postal tracking system - there is a reciprocal postal agreement between many countries allowing international/cross-border tracking.
I tracked a Canadian order to my house after it arrived in the USA using the Canadian number. It took a bizarre route - Toronto to Indianapolis to Chicago to Los Angeles to Minneapolis, then finally to me.

Yes but the problem that chips are showing in Chicago now since 24.7. We need to wait for this to clear
I asked around and all EU buyers have this problem... So I really need to find what is wrong... Or find someone to send one chip from outside EU...
Still waiting for BFL answer... And asked USPS still no answer... Hope to get one soon...

My one was shipped from Leawood via Kansas City & too since 24 of July in Chicago. I think their tracking system is stopping in Chicago, maybe when leaving for oversea.

form correct me if I'm wrong but for 8 probably there is not enough power in this board right? This one is for test and you can add additional power supplys on it. Right?
Yes, this power module (that plug-in module behind the ATX-connector) can probably supply up to four of the chips. When we run all tests we will see how many current is flowing, and the final board will get a bigger module or two of them.

So they are putting 8 chips on that board? I was just curious, I don't mean to sound sceptical. If so that’s awesome.

I would like to say hi and thanks for joining us... Much appreciated...
I'd like to echo that sentiment! The pictures are much appreciated! As is the humor - turning electricity into heat and Bitcoins....
July 31, 2013, 07:35:51 AM
Why would you do that? You can put 8 on one and it will cost much less... And take MrTeal's. It has Intel programmable power supply so you can overvoltage it easy and if I understand it correctly it will also be possible to control clock directly over firmware... chris99 told me they will not change firmware so you will get much more out of chips... That means only with programmer unit you can change a way clock are set...
But this is where over plans compeer to chris99 are different. We will modified firmware to make it possible to change clocks... And you will be able to change voltage with potentiometer... But this is in case we don't change all... Jala experiment will tell all...
I'm more to a small investor where I tends to invest in different items. e.g. boards from you and other board developers. I personally don't like to put everything at one area. I just wanna make use of my 8 chip coupons before i call it an end to invest on BFL items.But this is where over plans compeer to chris99 are different.

Big chip just under the Bitcoin symbol. Top row. Count over from the right about 8 pins, just below the open via next to the closed one. Looks like a solder bridge between the two pins about 1/2 way up from the chip. I used to fix these kinds of things for a living - things like that jump out at me.
Of course it could just be an optical illusion caused by the way the picture was taken. You need a magnifier and the actual board to be able to tell. And yes, bottom right chip - left hand side bottom two pins look bridged, too.
U got my respect there. Good eyesight!Of course it could just be an optical illusion caused by the way the picture was taken. You need a magnifier and the actual board to be able to tell. And yes, bottom right chip - left hand side bottom two pins look bridged, too.
Look what came out of my team... Now I know why it took so long for changes to BFL board... Anyway this is what happen behind my back... So if it turns out working...
Now this picture is not completely finished board... And some components are just put on... But this is a surprise I just got on mail...
I know but power supply is just a test version... Real will have PCI-e... So don't worry...
Now we will do 2 tests I do hope that this board will work since it will cost less...
This will be the best update ever. Thanks for the good work! Now this picture is not completely finished board... And some components are just put on... But this is a surprise I just got on mail...

Hi,
that bridges are intended to be so - these pins are connected in the schematic/layout, too (power-rails).
Here are some new pictures from today. Ignore the BFGMiner-Errors, because hashing is difficult without chips

OK I jumped a gun a bit. This board we could use but it was found not made by us. It was found when looking on forums, IRC... working on ours... They agreed licencing if we can provide enough samples chips for test run... Well anyway we have 1 in-house project and one outsourced but adopted as ours and we will work together on it... So we have one more front open...
They just write that they have a board and will give me more info tomorrow but didn't add it is not ours. Now when I send them info on that solder bridge I got back you didn't publish anything jet right? They forgot that I don't sleep that much...
