Thanks but if you use a power usb hub and only do script you still need to put an adaptor of 12v to each one?

Nope, it receives the work but does nothing with it. Maybe if you have some juiced up HUB you could try it but not on a normal powered HUB or directly plugged into the PC. It screws up the COM ports doing this and you have to restart your PC Undecided

Hi,

Can you plug the gridseed to the usb port of a computer without the 12v adaptor?

Beastlymac (or anyone who has these in hand), can you tell me if the unit is only being run in Scrypt mode does it still need the power adapter or can it run entirely off the USB connector?

No. Each chip is equivalent to one of the USB dual miners. Each dual miner sucks up all the power of a USB 2.0 port. Each unit has 5 chips, so you would need 5x power of a USB 2.0 port (maybe 4x since you don't have to multiply the support stuff).

I've got a bizarre idea on how to mount these using 4" PVC tubing that i'll cut a slit down the side of for cable and reset access. Each tube will be a stack of miners working in their own little wind tunnel. I may even remove the fans from the individual units and just mount a single inlet/exhaust fan at each end since i've heard they generate very little heat.

That could work.

What is the easiest method of powering the 5-chip model?

I received a 12v 5a power brick that as easy as it gets for powering each gridseed. It is not as efficient as a PSU but it is a clean setup.

It very depends on possible price?

Who wants to join me for a group buy for Chips：Gridseed GC3355 in France/europe ?

I would like to buy some chips if the price is good. Located in the US.

Where are people getting the chips? I emailed Gridseed direct and they said they are only selling the 5chip units at this time.

same questions here. I'd love to get my hands on some of the 20 LA6Ms , stacks of round things are cool too. US , but can take possession in CN directly

Indeed. The devices are great, but still a bit expensive. I'm located in Europe.

I think you should create a new topic about this.

I dont really care if some company is official reseller or not. I just want good price and fine delivery.
If one unit fails, who cares to send back. Maybe a bit different if whole set fails, but I dont think so.
Buy from where you want. However sometimes small sellers are able to offer faster delivery and even better customer service than
big companies. Just my two coins.

Hello, i am from china mainland and knew something about gridchip.

I saw a lot of people bought the dualminer from the lightingasic.com, but I checked the official website and was unable to get that website in the approved seller list.

see this link (http://bbs.diginforce.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=18&extra=page%3D1) about the introduction of gridseed an the only legal seller. Please take care of that website (it seems that they rebrand gripchip set as lm6a/lm10a).

--------------------------------------------------------------

Here the legal distributor/reseller approved by gridchip:

http://bbs.diginforce.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=19&fromuid=1

(you can use google translator for chinese)

People have received what they have ordered from lightingasic.com, so what´s the problem? I don't know this situation exactly, but in China lot of companies sell products from different factories and only few are "authorized", most are "agents". I have done years of business with chinese companies and generally no problems at all.

Here is the only place supported by gridchip development team:
http://cybtc.com/forum-83-1.html

Here is the latest announcement from gridchip dev team:
http://cybtc.com/thread-5952-1-1.html

This chip is only owned and produced by gridchip and there is no different factories to make different dualminer. If lightingasic.com is not the valid reseller, which means that it got the dualminers from public selling channel and no direct technical support and warranty. You got the problem from miner and you had to send them to lightingasic and then lightingasic sent them to official company. Lighting has no the stable source of good, which means the ship date will also be impacted.

BTW: cybtc.com is the valid reseller and approved by official. It has 5 dualminer sets quota each day since now. LOL. You can count the result by the selling date(last column of this link: http://cybtc.com/it618_scoremall-scoremall_page.html?pid=36)
