I have a question regarding my Bitcoin Merch Mars Lander which shows a lot of hardware errors during mining.
The are some stats of my Mars Lander after mining for "1day 23h 24m 13s":
That is a ~42% Hardware Error rate which I think is insanely high. It does mine at an average of 288 MH/s. So, just to be sure, I e-mailed Idan Abada from Bitcoin Merch and this is his reply:
"Hardware errors are normal. I see 289 GH/s, the advertised hash rate is 250. You are doing wonderful!"
When I said it's a 50% hardware error rate at that time, I got a reply back saying:
"Yes as long as your hash rate is normal, yours is very high so very good!"
So, my question is: is a 42% hardware rate accepted when mining at an average of 288MH/s? To me, it sounds like faulty hardware.

May I know how do you check the status for using Mars Lander
Thanks
Go to to the ip address of the Mars lander followed by :8080 in your web browser.
You can also SSH into it (username "pi", password "raspberry"). Once in, type "sudo screen -list" and you will be showna few screen instances. Connect to the one that is histing CGMiner and you will get access to CGMiner. You do this by typing "screen -r ###" (### being the screen instance number).
