Hey Barntechs forums down . Someone must be unhappy with us today .

Any more word about this Avalon 2 offer for existing users? I filled out the form a couple of days ago, but Barntech hasn't posted any more since then either here or on the drillbit forum.

I am, what's the account name?

who is the admin to approve drillbit account?

Hey guys.

Ok so the Avalon 16 chip boards are gonna be coming in soon. At this stage we're looking good to have these ready to ship by end of February. This is not a promise, it is a projection. Things could get delayed. Fingers crossed that they don't.

The 16 chip Avalon Gen2 board will achieve hashrates at a minimum of 20gh/s. They will probably go faster but this is the hashrate we are quoting for now. These boards will not work on existing miniplanes, in stead they will be chainable using sata cables.

At this stage we are opening up 'expressions of interest' for the boards only to members of the previous group buy. Each such member is entitled to the number of boards previously ordered at a the discounted price of USD $230 per board. Once i have initial numbers, more boards may be released at somewhere around the $280 mark depending on how many get taken in this first round.

There will also be 1.6gh/s thumbs available for $65.

Please fill in the form beneath with the number of boards you are interested in (only up to the amount of boards previously ordered). This is not a contract but please only fill this in if you have a real intention of buying the boards. Once we get closer to shipping and verify the boards are all working as they should we'll open up payments. BTC payments only. Payments will be pinned to the USD price so BTC price will vary depending on the rate at the time of payment.

For this round, there will only be the express postage option. Had too many troubles last time round with 'regular' post. The cost will be $60-$100 depending on number of boards and region.

All production and manufacture is taking place here in Australia.

Excited to get these boards out to you guys.

Cheers

Hey guys.

I'm back. Been a while. Hoping you're all well. I see that a few of you have noticed i've posted over on the drillbit forum about upcoming stuff. The avalon units are on their way and some repaired 8 boards from the last batch will be available but not many. For now i'm going to be keeping most of my communications over on the drillbit forum. At this point the Avalon boards will only be available to members of the old group buy. This may change depending on demand. If you want to write to me, email is preferred, followed by PMs on the other forum followed by PMs here. Its hectic having three inboxes to deal with. Anyways. Onwards and upwards.

Cheers

Barntech

any news on new 8boards yet?

While waiting for the Drillbit team to reply, some pleasant news to report -- 7 days uptime on BTC Guild with 4x 8-boards. I'd also gotten 6 days uptime a few weeks earlier, but thought it might just be a one off...



Three out of four boards running at 54:2:850, the last one at 53:2:950 to keep it at 20GH/s (otherwise it drops to 15~16GH/s at any setting using 850mV...). Rig details here: http://drillbitsystem.com/forum/index.php?topic=45.msg2632#msg2632

When all my boards were at 950mV, the longest they would last was about 2 days 6 hours, before at least one of them spat out only LIBUSB errors. Then a lot of stuffing around to get them working at 950mV again. Just happy for them to reliably hash away a week at a time (or longer), rather than only for 1-2 days max.
