Do you need a Raspberry Pi for this to work? Or would it work if I plugged it into my windows 10 mining rig which is
currently running 2 vega 64's ?

Well you 'can' use the mining rig, but it's far from ideal.

A cheap little RPi dedicated to doing the mining is a better idea than having a computer with various issues regarding the CPU usage that may delay your shares/blocks at random times.

It's not a case of "Yeah this computer has plenty of spare CPU",
it's a case of what are the peaks in CPU it uses doing other things (GPU mining, 'Windows 10', etc) and thus what effect that has randomly on the USB mining.

I broke my leg on January 12th; about six inches above the ankle, both bones were in three pieces. That forced me off the shop floor for a good month before I was really mobile again, which meant nothing to do but PCB design (mostly from home) and firmware programming and drafting the sheet-metal housing. The prototype version of this machine was one trace and six components short of the final working design. I'm stunned my own self that it's less than three months from idea to release, though it really helps to have competent people able to handle the stuff I couldn't do during that time.

We're hoping to keep that R&D momentum going with two or three more new things this year, now that we do sticks, pods and hubs.

A windows 10 mining rig would be able to control these. See below.

The Terminus needs an external controller running cgminer, with USB connection to the miner.

Introducing the newest quiet consumer miner from GekkoScience, the newest addition to the Terminus pod-miner line, the R606.

Amazing accomplishment. Congratulations sidehack!

I don't think we've been involved in this raffle thing before. How does it all work?

I have promoted for sidehack gear.

I do various give aways for those that purchase his new gear.

Let us say you do 12 sales of sidehack gear for the first batch.

You would give each sale of a sidehack pod a number 2000 to 2999 in your case

2000
2001
2002
2003
2004
2005
up to 2012 since you did 12 sales

if you did 100 sales up to 2100

You would tell me how many numbers for pod sales you issued say you do 37 sales so 2000 to 2037.
It is a bit of labor for your company to make a list of pod buyers and the raffle number you give to them.

I would do a random number drawing for 2 prizes of compacs which I would mail to the winners.
I think there are three sellers.

minefarmbuy I would give away 2 sticks
419mining I would give away 2 sticks
rockmoney I would give away 2 sticks

I would mail the gear so not cost to the dealers or the winners. I only end up getting info on the winners to keep privacy issues as best as possible.

I would save two sticks for the Euro/worldwide buyers later on.

419mining say gives ticket numbers out from 1-999
rockminey gives ticket numbers out from 1000-1999
minefarmbuy gives ticket numbers out from 2000-2999

I do a random generator for each company and pick 2 from each.

Thanks Philipma1957! You always come through with cool raffles when new products come out.

you know, we could include "raffle tickets" with the purchases, if that would help.

Yes best way to do it. Is that way. I will post this idea on thread.

This seems like best way.

At the moment

I have 8 working compacs to give away
I have a quasi working 2 pac to give away this was a silver color heatsink protype model.

We will do a North America raffle with 6 sticks if you buy from a north american dealer

We will do a European-Worldwide Raffle with maybe 2-3 sticks if you buy from a non north american dealer

419mining had the idea of giving the ticket with each sale. Sale must be for a sidehack pod only 1 prize per customer

At North american dealers please pm me if onboard

rockmoney
minefarmbuy

note if I missed a dealer for North america please let me know

in theory

419mining say gives ticket numbers out from 1-999
rockminey gives ticket numbers out from 1000-1999
minefarmbuy gives ticket numbers out from 2000-2999

Some screenshots of cgminer running this thing would be nice

Most re-sellers are still in pre-order at this time. As the units roll out, better screenshots, build out photos, updates to cgminer and step-by-step how-to's and support forums will all be coming. I know your excited, we all are. This is all new for us as well. I have a prototype demo unit but it doesn't function the same as a production unit, I can post a screenshot of that if it helps.

In honor of sidehack and his amazing work, we running a special on our site. Our power pack, normally on sale for $106.17, when you buy a R606, we are going to give $32 off. That brings the price down to $74.
This is going to be a bundle price, when both are in the cart, a discount will be auto applied. Check out the details here: https://www.419mining.com/shop/power-supply/complete-power-bundle/
when run from 120V, this will produce up to 900 watts of power and is compatible with both the GekkoScience Hubs, and the new R606.

Power draw is whatever you want it to be (since voltage and frequency are both adjustable) but due to limitations of the internal main regulator it shouldn't go over about 120W. But it can also go under 20W with the right settings.

Edited my post as I totally missed the power figure under the picture Wink

Really is great to have something like this available. Can't wait until the second batch.
