Hi. I noticed this thread. I also offer escrow service. See sig and thread for details. (For quick reference, I normally charge 1% fee.)

thank you. but at this rate on Btc being so low. this will be a fee of ~$50 : (

It's 1% of whatever amount, regardless of exchange rate. I only deal with BTC. So, your $259 miner will have a fee of $2.59, because that's one percent. Or something like that. In BTC.

If you send 0.45920000 BTC for it, then I will keep 0.00459200 BTC as my fee and forward the rest to the seller. (Or add 1% to his price, whatever.)

Now, if you order 10 miners, then of course the fee is 10 times more, because you are now paying $2590. 1% of that is $25.90. In BTC, that translates to, you sent 4.59200000 BTC, get your 10 miners, then I take my one percent which is 0.04592000 BTC, and send the rest to the seller.

I hope that makes sense.

Anyone know of a good power supply for these that has multiple ends to power more then one device?

you could use a simple 12v 25a ... which probably should handle 10 miners for scrypt only ... I will verify this ... today ...

Does anyone know the tip size for the connectors on individual power supplies? 5.5mm x 2.5mm seems to be the standard, but I want to make sure before ordering anything.

Seeds,

The extra controllers you will have due to individuals ordering less then 10 boards, are you willing to sell and ship those. Id be interested in one if the price is right. There is another group buyer on here doing this but they want $120 per controller board which i feel is a rip off

Yes, I do have 1 left. I can sell it to you for $80.

I will take it, if you want to pm me a quote in BTC

Also, what good is the miner without this 'control board' .. what does the 'controller' do? is it simply a raspberry pi or like?

As I understand it, you can use the miners with any linux, if you compile/use (customized) cpuminer od cgminer.
Even a Windows PC should do the work.

The board is a small ARM based linux computer so you dont need any aditional hardware.
This is my understanding.

You are correct, it is an efficient way of mining, also with what people have developed for windows so far will not allow you to dual mine only one or the other

An ARM based linux pc needs like 7W, an atom / celeron PC needs at least 40w (been there, done that).

Question, for all those sold miners that are not in ten packs, they do not get a controller board, so in the end you should end up with a couple of extra controller boards. Would you be selling these individually??? If so I might be interested in one
