Hello Everyone,

We wanted to evaluate the market and ask our fellow customers whether a Mini-Rig operating
at 25 GH/s and priced at half price (15K$) and consuming around 1.2KW would be something they
consider or not.

All suggestions/ideas/opinions are welcome.


Reagrds,
BFL

I'll take 4 please.

A smaller rig unit under 1800w would be a plus.  ~15k would increase the market.

Any additional MH/w enhancement would be spectacular.

I think that you may try to setup a hire purchase scheme, 15k is quite a lot of money to fork out.  Also how are we going to be sure on the warranty part

You need to design something that is below 1500w current draw, so it can be used on a normal household circuit. With the 5x more power usage per hash than your original specification, "rigbox" can't be plugged into anything beyond a specialized circuit with a high-amperage nema plug.

You should have a rackmount backplane that can take single-equivalent cards, so a "blade server" can come with a few, and be upgradeable to ~20. With adequate cooling blowing in the right direction.
