Anyone with November batches of L3+ or D3 getting better-than-advertised results?

My L3+ still hashes at 504MH or slightly less pool-side but the wattage is down as is the heat.  Powered by a Seasonic 1200w Platinum PSU, my Watt meter is saying about 715w.  Advertised as 800W before PSU inefficiencies.  Packaging insert said to expect about 1000W at the wall.  The miner runs cool enough to quiet the fans down to 23% and still keep everything under 60°C.  The L3+ is located in my finished basement which is carpeted and gas furnace heated like the rest of the house.

My D3 is a slightly different story.  Runs hot as hell, 75-80° at stock fans speeds though total consumption at the wall is 1024W when powered by a APW3++ Bitmain PSU.  Advertised as 1200W before PSU inefficiencies.

Was Bitmain padding the numbers to be safe or were the November batches tuned better than early releases?  Or could it be that the wall voltage tends to run a little hot in this house?  Multi-meter reads about 125.5v.  I plan to use a dryer outlet for mining which reads 255v.  Is that TOO high?
Bitmain published numbers are always very slippery. They do usually err on the side of conservatism. Watts are typically lower than published and hash is typically higher all things being equal.....which they never are.

Mine probably WOULD run hot but in a cool data hall....so that is not an issue..the fact they are using 1200 watts each is an issue...neither overclocked...this is at the wall at

220 volts. This is a batch 2 Bitmain D3 unit (2.6k) running at 16gh stable. (should be 17.5gh). It took a lot to get it to run stable with no errors at that. The 2nd Bitmain D3 unit.

(1.5k). This does run at about 19.2gh thou with no errors. (Dubious equipment, not my brightest move) Sad

I also can't believe that folk bought out the Bitmain L3+ units selling in 2 batches in March 2018. That do not have to be shipped until April 10th 2018. I mean really? You really

think Bitmain is going to STOP PRODUCTION for 4 months? Not me. I think they are gonna kick out toasters at the same rate, (say about 200,000 total) and fill their data halls they

plan to get out of China to the USA. (That is prudent, I suppose, with China playing games with Bitcoin and the push to raise electric rates where their miners are now)

But wow! Jihan Wu must be a dancing with all that BCH that is coming in for that equipment ..he can pump and then dump to BTC! (again, IMHO) Games within Games!

Link to Bitmain store..empty, empty...

https://shop.bitmain.com/main.htm?lang=en

The continuous, supervillain deeds Bitmain is able to accomplish as time goes by...is truly impressive.......I don't like it...but it is damn hard to not be impressed by Jihan Wu's

 'mad dr. evil' skills. Bruahahaahahha......







Damn it! Where the frack is Batman?

But do this mining machine have enough power to compete with big mining companies?


Big mining companies use the same miners, just a lot more than homer miners. They also have a better mix with GPUs and different ASICS

oh well...



Does this not show in the page source anymore? I'm trying to see how many units are available in the L3+ and s9 batches on the bitmain site
It might be " Toadstool Day " or something in China. Which of course means they take a whole week off.

Take your panda to work week!!  Cheesy

Performing it is a better way of learning things
willywonkaa is a cheap scamer cheating people for coupon

His id in this bbs is willywonkaa.  His  Bitmain email is  [email protected]

he will offer to buy your bitmain coupons, when he receive your coupon, he will disappear and never show up again

Avoid dealing with him.

How my L3+ was hacked!

Waking up today morning i found my L3+ was not hashing. It turns out it was hashing for some one else on nicehash with BTC address:
14c2ewCFeW1VYtyhLFWB6rFJV36ZysEWUf

https://www.nicehash.com/miner/14c2ewCFeW1VYtyhLFWB6rFJV36ZysEWUf

it seems some one out there has auto scanner searching network for L3+ and inputs default password of Root:

i only lost 8 hours of hashing on 1 machine.
here are the following mistakes i made:
1) I put the L3+ in DMZ (nicehash was not working so i figured DMZ might fix the issue)
2) I kept the default user and password
3) disabled firewall on my router

Just a headsup to people. to change the default password.

In all honesty it was my own stupidity and complacency.

How may we change the default terminal password on the Baikal 2000 ?

I have the same problem with my Baikal A2000. WARNING everyone please not open it in DMZ

I'm contemplating this myself... I'm a bit late to the LTC mining game but I wanted to pick up some miners, I missed out on the December batch... now this March one comes up but like it's been mentioned, it's way out there, 4+ months... By then the difficulty should be way up there, and the L3+ is long in the tooth, we should be seeing the L4 coming out some time soon..

They released 2 L3+ batches for sale. Amazing, it ships far out. Early & Late March.

ya that email sent however many days ago had me a bit confused. why would anyone want to order miners 4+ months before they will even arrive. idc how much ltc is worth right now....i cant see myself falling into that trap....ever!
