I think some of us are missing the angle that we mine other coins besides bitcoin and gamble that they either catch on like btc or ltc. Or even just capitalize on short term movement.
Basing your efforts on one crypto is very naive

Well I have one box they said will ship out tomorrow - crossing my fingers!
When I get it I can provide pictures of it vs ANTMINER. Antminers are only about the dimensions of two power supplies and draw ~410W from the wall for 200GH. From the pics it is obvious BTMine's box is going to be massive in comparison. The power supplies included seem to be 600W and rather cheap (dual rail? ugh)... So that is why I figured any quality >50A supply would do (I've been buying Corsair 650W off eBay for $40 as I alluded to earlier) I also have a wattmeter and plan to get actual draw of the BTMine box as soon as it arrives...

Yeah, I want an antminer or 2 ... really bad, they look awesome but at 3btc ... cant justify the price vs these rigs unfortunately =/
Only benefit of antminer would be for people that pay tons in power costs I guess...
some of my antminer buyers bought them for mining peercoins (PPC)
The price is right but these are very inefficient units. Like the old avalons. I mean 2x 600w. Almost as bad a Asic miner blades (which I still run but at a flat fee in a data center). Antminer has them beat solidly if they lower their prices.
I thought thought Blade cubes were something like 280W for 35GH? I know my old V1 blades were around 120W for 13GH.
I was hoping to get my BTMine unit here soon and see actual draw... guessing somewhere around 800-900W at the wall which would put it around 2x the power usage of an ANT but still TWICE as efficient as a cube.
At my power rates that is only around $40/month to run one of these ($0.06/KWH)

I think the advantage of the BTmine box is the fact it has a CASE.
Yeah, a case is nice, my avy B2 has sat out in the garage w/ windows open and rain has been flying all over the room due to wind... my avy is ... unaffected since july =)

Well I paid 3.1BTC per ANT and they have already been running for 1 week and returned enough BTC to cover the spread compared to the BTMine unit that I ordered this week but still hasn't shipped. In mining it seems the good deals come & go soo quickly you really have to jump day 1 when you find something that is a deal.

That massive case could be a liability imo, if you pay through the nose for power as I do and need to sell it later to someone who has cheap power. Shipping costs will be a killer.

Anyone has these lines in system log?

The Avalon design for the TP-link was always kind of "meh" as the router can't really pull enough power from its USB port to run full WiFi and Ethernet at the same time, or at least that is the way it was in Gen1 days...
Recommend using Ethernet-only and DISABLING wifi on the unit if you see issues like this... Personally I really don't like using WiFi on my rigs, and if I must do it I use a ethernet-wireless bridge (gaming adapter) that I know has a proven track record. Heck you can find adapters on eBay for $10-20.
If you really MUST use wireless and want it to be 100% stable 24/7/365 then what you really should do is spend $50 per bridge end and purchase a quality WISP-grade radio like a Ubiquity Nanostation. WISPs (Wireless Internet Service Providers) don't like to roll trucks when their wireless links go down and I've had pair of these radios up for ~5years outdoors with no issues! This is also nice because you can use one pair of bridges along with a switch at the remote location to attach all miners to the single link...

Chillax, they're probably still sleeping over there, and from what it seems are very busy building these rigs otherwise.
Yeah i thought these were ready to ship?? KNCminer and Previously ASICminer are the manufacturers that keep their word it seems.
KNC was late...though not much on batch one, I think batch 2 was a bit worse. And anyone remember trying to get anything out of China last Jan?

Well this is going the same as usual ASIC orders go....
Anyone considering purchasing, be sure to add the usual ASIC shipping delay timeline of 7 days to 13 months from the posted shipping day to your ROI calculations.
Btmine you have changed expected shipping days twice now, and both were over the 2 days in the original OP. You are well aware days matter when mining. I paid on the 6th. I need a tracking number, or a refund by 11th - not promises or excuses.

'I NEED a tracking number' or else...lol does that usually work in other areas of your life? Were you stomping your feet up and down when you wrote that?
Trust tags have been effective in deterring people from giving liars money... and there was no or else. Go back to trolling somewhere else

Can just ONE person reply with what they mine per day (in a pool) with one of these?
I have a BFL Little Single that under-performs at around 20gh/s. It pulls in around .007 a day. Using that as a baseline, this 200gh/s miner should pull in .07 a day....which at today's rate ($827 bitstamp) is around $1,736 over next 30 days.
Can anyone post what they are generating per day?
Thanks!

You understand that you can't just take how much it makes per day and multiply by 30, right? Try this calculator. I've already input everything for 1 of these 200GH/s units assuming that it gets delivered by 1/22 and you pay $0.15 per kWh on your electric bill.
tl;dr
You might be able to mine 3.4btc before electricity costs, but electricity usually costs a lot on these inefficient miners.
A - Thank you for that. Seems more sophisticated than some of the calcs I was using.
B - I already bought the miner this morning
C - OMG, I also bought the ProsperoX3 for $6,000 and am not getting it till march/april
D - Ah...so that's the cold chill of a reality check that people were talking about
E - OMG, I also bought the ProsperoX3 for $6,000 and am not getting it till march/april
F - OMG, I also bought the ProsperoX3 for $6,000 and am not getting it till march/april
G - I also just used a calc for the Srypt miner I am just finishing today which should do about 3,600 kh....and saw that the $$$ per month is less than half it was when I bought the parts last month
H - damn....
