Are they trying to get rid of their B stock chips by creating another product?
This could very well be one of the reasons.exactly what i suspect they are doing and keeping the final good quality design S9's for there own in house use

all things being equal the r4 at 7.5th and 916 could be a better deal then the t9 at 1104 11.5th.
the r4 will use .1 watts
the t9 will use .126 watts
so 3 r4's = 22.5th and 2748
and 2 t9's = 23th and 2204 this is 544 usd difference and shipping makes is about 600 more for the r4's
So I will pretend they are both 23 th for math ease
23th at .1 watts = 2300 watts
23th at .126 watts = 2900 watts
so 1 ibm 2980 psu runs all 3 r4's
and 1 ibm 2980 will be short for 2 t9's so the r4's save back some of the 600 price difference in psu say 50
so 550 price difference
and you save 432 kwatts per month
600 watts per hour x 24 = 14.4 kwatts a day
at 10 cents that is 43.20 usd per month
So in about 1 year 43.20 x 12 = 518.40
which means 3x R4 7.5th vs 2x T9 11.5 are close to a tie in value.
4 assumptions made are :
1) nothing breaks
2) .126 watts per gh = T9
3) .100 watts per gh = R4
4) 10 cents a kwatt
Many will say 10 cents a kwatt is too high use 8 cents a kwatt so after 16 months they are pretty much equal
The real key is the true power used.
If the T9 does .135 cents at the meter
and the R4 does .100 cents at the meter
the r4 is cheaper after:
9 months at 10 cents a kwatt
12 months at 8 cents a kwatt
the r4 will use .1 watts
the t9 will use .126 watts
so 3 r4's = 22.5th and 2748
and 2 t9's = 23th and 2204 this is 544 usd difference and shipping makes is about 600 more for the r4's

When will next stock be available ? approximately 3-7 days. @Bitmain
Any differences between T9 and S9?
Power Consumption:
T9 1450W 11.5TH/s
S9 1078W 11TH/s (Batch 22)
The big difference for me.
It's 1450W +7% it's not +/-
That's 1550W! with the 7% factored in.
I'm sorry but this looks like bitmain trying to create a new product that increases profit margins to capitalize on the recent increases in BTC value.
The sad truth here is, people will probably buy this crap.
My guess here is they finally fixed the S9 problems and instead of continuing to post fake specs about the power usage and capability, they are going with actual specs this time. I don't own an S9 so this is just speculation based upon what I've read about people complaining about the S9.
Also if they did fix a design issue with the S9, owners would be clamoring for replacements. Bitmain Solution: Create the T9 and move away from the bad like Microsoft did with Windows 8.
Limited amount left in stock. Just paid for another 3.

Thanks Swimmer63,
Just grabbed one to give it a try out.
Scam post, delete this shit please.
You better report it to moderator than to quote it.
Looks like the last 2 batches offered on the Bitmain Chinese store were T9's and no S9's. Maybe they are cutting over production of these miners to just T9's now? Just thought it was worth noting... Interesting.

So, this is a less efficient version of the S9? They are taking a step back with this.
Less efficient but cheaper MSRP. Doesn't make up for the fact that it's less efficient though. Like you said, a step back for sure but it's better than them not releasing anything tbh.
They've confirmed my order/payment via a support ticket however my order status still hasn't been updated.

when i see on the site, t9 its more high hashrate than s9 batch 22 and its lower than s9 batch 23 and its more power consumption than s9 and it more power efficiency than s9. i think if i have more money, i will buy t9 because the hashrate is more big than s9 and its lower price than s9. but how long we need to be wait until the payment become verified like many members complain?
Has anyone's payment been verified yet? I ordered and paid immediately after they went on sale - the transaction has over 60 confirmation now, but my order hasn't updated. It's still 'Unpaid, Unshipped, Expired'.
Same thing here, bought, paid immediately, still shows unpaid.... wft bitmain?

come and gone. iv got 3 on there way to me along with power supplies.
Have they come and gone or has the link never worked? It's 1/18 in China.
Looks like you missed the boat. They were available from ~2335 +8 GMT last night until a couple of hours ago.

T9 looks like a good miner for anyone who doesn't pay for their electricity.
