I am guessing you are in the Americas, if that, what is the shipping to UK and how much do you want for each?

I'm asking for 20 usd on ebay. If you grab all 12 I'll give them to you for 200 usd. I'm not sure on the shipping, I've never shipped outside the U.S. before. Pm me your address and I'll look it up. Or if you want you could send me a label. My zip code is 32205.

In my opinion $20 per blade is quite a lot. Imagine, in the best case user can reach 50GHs per blade, for 55W (the lowest I have ever seen with that). It gives 0.0006285 BTC daily. If pay $0.1 per kWh to reach simmilar ROI to new S4, price should not be higher than $10 per blade. I do not tell about $ what user has to pay for p2102 device, PSU, cables, computer he has to use, abilities to make everything to work and so on.

if you ship via usps it would be $80 dollars (thats what i paid from US to sweden, for 16 boards)

Anybody still looking for some boards to play with? I have 12 Sitting on a shelf collecting dust. I'm too busy at the moment to play with them myself. I work for UPS so it's work and sleep for the next month. Nice paychecks though. I have them on ebay, but will pull them off if someone here want's them. Bitcoin and Paypal accepted.

I'm looking for some to summarise the achievements of this thread.
That's about how far we gone, where we are now and what to do next.
Meanwhile, I doubt the significance of this project due to the delay in achieving the objectives.
But the works so far done were very educative and the experience got through this are invaluable.
I reccomend you guys to continue and if possible migrate the plan to combine newer hardwares than the old Antminer S1.
As said at first, it will be good if anyone can summarise the things done so far.

I'm not home at the moment, but I'm looking at some little mods to the 8 port board to allow it to control the block erupters (tube, prisma...)
I had some trouble with my cp2102 prototypes except for the first one, probably shorts on one of the cp2102. new solder stencil is ready to have a clean assembly.

short summary:

we connected the antminer blades to cp2102 usb sticks, and got cgminer to mine at full speed, repo:
https://github.com/FireWalkerX/cgminer-bmsc.git
edit: compile : ./autogen.sh --enable-bmsc;make

windows:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/iuj9fz6zt8qm3q9/cgminer-bmsc.zip?dl=0

underclocked the antminers, per instructions from here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/guide-undervolt-antminer-s1-119wgh-at-the-wall-526060

i never recieved the prototype from j4bberwock, so, im guessing we will have to settle for the cp2102 usb sticks,
next, well, since it can still pay to use my s1 boards underclocked ill keep them running for now, and looking for the next project :-p

that about covers it

So i tried withthe CP2102 plugged directly in my PI.

I did receiving a few HW error right of the bat like 6-7 but after that, everything was looking good. Starting hashing at 45gh/s ( just tried like 2-3 mins).

But as soon I use my hub, massive HW, USB error then all 3 board are disabled.

So I guess it's the hub ... it's a cheap one. I will try to buy a compatible one.

Any suggestion ?

look here: http://elinux.org/RPi_Powered_USB_Hubs

and it has to be self powered hub as well, the rpi is tricky since it doesnt like too many usb bridges as well

the rpi has a bridge build into it as well, where ethernet is connected to it, try get a powered hub that is on the list i posted

Thanks !!

where in the world are you located?

EDIT: WoW looks like i'm going to have a hard time to find a simple usb hub to work with ... sucks

Ive updated the git repo with support for cp2108 (since i dont have anything to test with, its experimental) ;-p

Nicehash has done upgrade https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9621985 solving #xnsub issue You have pointed to. Would You update bmsc git repo?

im at sea at the moment, but will update as soon as i have a moment for it

Most of the poeple doesn't realized that we can communicate from anywhere on the world. Even on a boat!! Cheesy

I don't know if you can't tell us were you are but i would like to know, just for the fun of it Tongue

Godspeed :-)

i cannot disclose ship locations, thats why i have not answered this post, sorry :-p

No Problem, I was kind of guessing you were in the army Wink

im not in the army/navy/airforce :-p thats all i can say
