Is it louder then two fan antminer?

I have not done any DB readings with it since it's in my mining area. There are some big fan's and professional gable fan out there so it is always loud.  So it is not really good to get a DB reading of sound but I can handle a lot of heat even in Midwest Summers using lot's of CFM's to move heat.  

But it is not a quiet miner with 6000 RPM fan, but the 2 fan model is not quiet either.  If you can handle a regular S7 sound I don't see the S7-F1 being an issue.  But if your worried about sound honestly neither miner is for you unless you plan on doing something to lessen sound.  And on a side note the one fan with higher RPM has done a really good job on cooling, I had planned on adding a 2nd fan but have not done it yet as the one bigger fan has done very well.

71C is a little high i think! isn't it?

Should be ok, my 3x S7-F1 run at 73'c ( ambient 35'c 3pm local time) for 2 months already, so far so good

Keep in mind it is during summer during all of this.  So for me I personally use decent fan's with high CFM's and push the air away from miners in my mining area. I'm not in a area evaporation cooling is effective.  So during a pretty hot day I'm happy with it and no damage from it.  

At night it is already in low 60's and will get lower chances are later.   Mining during summer for many like me means mining a little hotter.   But the S7-F1 handles it fine so far.

I have 2 x S7-F1s and 2 x S7-B18s running in the same location under the same conditions. Last week when it hit 90F here, the S7-F1's actually ran about 8-10C cooler.
The Batch 18's pushed 75 - 77C but the the Single Fan versions stayed under 70C. I actually like them better.

I have had nothing but good luck from it.   The one fan seems to work fine with higher RPM even during a midwest summer.   I had planned adding a second fan to it and showing it here.   But it simply has not been needed.

It is still hashing away almost a month later great without issues from miner.

The miner is still running good been running around 3 weeks at this point.  I did have a storm which knocked out power, which does not happen often here.  Not a way I want to power it off, but unit handled losing power and worked fine afterwards.  Below you can tell it was after storm due to day's resetting:

So overall with the price difference will you continue purchasing from the US location?
How much more was the purchase from the US site versus the Factory site in China at the time you made it?

I assume you own or have owned both dual and now the single fan unit. Which would you purchase today if you were buying and both were available? Please elaborate regarding your decision.

On location it really depends what your looking for you can look up price differences currently: https://bitmainwarranty.com/product-category/products/ vs https://bitmaintech.com/product.htm.  It really depends on what your looking for on which is best for you to order.  With BitmainWarranty those in US wanting very quick shipments they are great at.  Also with warranty I have to admit having a number instead of email is very nice.  Just like being able order up to 90 extra day's for warranty.  But you are right price is higher so each person has to decide what is important to them.

One thing I did learn with purchase is if I have any gear out of warranty time and I need a repair, I likely will be contacting BitmainWarranty for repair.  They are able to do repairs so with being in US this likely is quicker and cheaper shipping for me instead of sending to China.  So depends on your location on which is best for you.

I have had both S7 and S7-F1 and not had a problem with either.   The S7-F1 with one fan and extra RPM has ran fine for me,  so far it's ran straight for over 1/2 month with no issues.  So I likely would buy which ever S7 is best deal price wise and not worry personally if it is the 1 or 2 fan version.

Thanks for this review and including how you purchased it

Your welcome I enjoy doing them.  It was new for me on the purchasing from Bitmain Warranty and I have nothing but good things to say.  The shipping out of US and fast shipping is great.  And I really liked that you get a number to call for warranty vs standard. 

I am still running so far up to 5 day's and no issues.  I plan to upload pictures again after a week or so on status.

Thanks for this. I also bought 2 of these and they have been running about 11 days. They've been absolutely worry-free, even though it hit 82 deg F a few days ago. One is slightly under the advertised speed and one is slightly over, so I guess they average out.

How do you get stuff shipped from Bitmain Warranty as opposed to using the website and getting them from China?

It does seem to run good for me aswell I have had a variety of weather and no issues.  The one big fan with more RPM seems to work fine without issues for me.

On ordering from Bitmain Warranty they have their own site: https://bitmainwarranty.com/ .  When ordering there some of the things you get is shipping from US, phone number to call for warranty if any issues, and can even buy extended warranty.   But take a look it's all over on that link.

So far still running good here is a screenshot of after 10 day's:


Just for reference everything is still on default settings besides static IP, and my pool info.  But no problems or complaints about the S7-F1 it keeps hashing away.

I am running about 60 of them and the worst have error rates of 0.0010 or so. That sounds like there is an issue with your setup or hardware.

hrmm you're getting the HW errors too.. undercocked its rock solid but at factory frequency and an overrated psu.. i am averaging over 1% HW errors, is this the norm for all batches?

No... your missing the percent mine is WELL under 1 percent.   What PSU are you using?  I don't think APW3-12-1600 is overrated is your talking about it.  I have had a few and no issues.

As mentioned I am using factory settings just changed pool info, and static IP. So  that means factory frequency which has been same since batch 8, so it's pretty well tested.  Have you tried other pools?  As over 1 percent is not normal.  Look at how small of percentage I am getting in screenshot's.
