I bet if you have a newer model car, you have spare fuses in your fuse box that will work, they do have mini fuses at the autoparts store also.



they also have smaller ones

V2 blades have SMT fuses that are socketed.
On one of my V2 blades, the fuse overheated and  melted the solder of the SMD socket the fuse was in.  The replacement fuses would not fit in the fuse socket after that, so I've removed the socket and soldered a 10A case fuse in its place.  Next step is to put a fuse holder in.  I'd prefer the micro blade fuses - at least I can get them for car parts place!

I need to make the pvc rig this weekend, it's a shame they aren't as small as a jalapeno, those guys are smaller than I thought. 


I like the aesthetics of the BFL designs, they're nice and neat. I do like my PVC designs too lol, because it has a nice diy-industrial look to it. Perhaps if I have time tonight I will share a photo, it's similar to what others have done. Fans on the bottom blowing up across the blades, with a AC-DC PSU and network switch mounted to the rig. Just plug up power and it's hashing.

Awesome! I love mine, and with BFGMiner as a getwork proxy, they're more reliable than ever. I only need one more 13gh blade to complete my 13gh collection lol. Maybe will find a cheap one soon.

My green power connector melted a bit last night, how robust are the boards?  It didn't look bad, but  I need to find another connector or does anyone else have another power solution? 

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/blade-power-connector-309001

I've got a small collection of blades running overclocked, 24/7/365, no issues. Make sure you run the proper gauge of wire (16ga minimum) and the it's secured properly.

Thanks and after further review it was the wires slipping out of the socket that caused the issue.  One of the screws felt stripped and would not tighten as much as I'd like. 

I was able to find a phoenix connector at a local OEM parts shop and thank the heavens the blade is still in working order.

I have minepeon on the rpi. With help of RickRock i settet up bfgminer for the blades. Working nice with the --http-option 8332:

Login and cd /opt

Do:
sudo pacman -Syu libmicrohttpd

sudo git clone https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer bfgminer

cd bfgminer

./autogen.sh

sudo ./configure --with-libmicrohttpd

make



After that, you should have a bfgminer binary in your /opt/bfgminer directory compiled with libmicrohttpd

This doc i wrote is not specifically for the pi but the steps in it for installing bfg should work on the pi.

I'll see what I can come up with this weekend for building Bfgminer on the raspi.

What I did was install Bfgminer 3.2.1 onto a raspberry pi. I believe building Bfgminer on a Linux machine where the Windows version does not have the http proxy built into it yet. This is how I set mine up.

./bfgminer --http-port-8332 -o stratum.d7.lt:3333 -u usrName -p x

on my blade I set the server IP to the same IP as my raspberry pi ports to 8332 and gave it a unique name and password. Everything started working about 15 seconds after doing an update/restart with the blade.

A quick how-to on building and running BFG for PI would be awesome!

Bitcoiner since start, and continue to love it!
UPDATE :

I will pay 50 USD via Paypal for the one who can setup my ASIC Blade (gen2) to work with BFGminer.

You must login via team viewer and make the settings and connect the ASIC Blade with BFGminer and make it work.


I have : 

1 x ASIC miner blade (gen.2)  connected to internet via D-Link router ( with ethernet cable )

accounts on multiple pools (bitminter.com, btcguild.com, eclipsemc.com)

windows 7, 64 bits  laptop.



the blade is working now !

a big thank you to  @i3lome  who made the setup for me.

Wow, have you seen how tiny it is?

They have to be specialty. But I'll give it a try, Radio Shack was useless.

I read through this board, and cannot find mention of replacement fuses. I have a blown fuse, and need to order replacement. Any suggestions?

I have your solution.  Goto your local auto parts store and bring the fuse with you.  it should be a 10amp bus fuse, they are available at any autoparts store or  walmart in the automotive section.

$~4 for a pack of different sizes

Why use BFGMiner when you can run the miner on the Blades ? I run both Gen 1 and Gen 2, Use the proxy if you wanted your PC on but tbh that means using more power. Can use the cloud based proxy means you don't have to have any pc turned on. Or if you want faster speeds run Proxy but would stick off BFG crashes far too often.
