More follow up they gave six coupons good value coupons 350 usd.

Since I still have gpus I decided to buy a case using the $350 coupon. so a 600 dollar case became

$356.80 with shipping to me in New Jersey. Gear was in stock I ordered it on August 9th

Took cheap shipping and it was due in 30-40 days which would sept 9 to sept 19

It is now 60 days Oct 10. I will post to let you know if they send me a case or a refund.

This is more concerning as it is one of their main products a GPU case.

Well serves me right for giving them a chance to show they are back on track.

Bummer. Keep us updated on the case. If it goes well will you be ordering more of them or do you have some coupons to spare for a fellow miner who has never owned a GPU rack/case before? Maybe I could stop stockpiling PCs if I were to switch to something like this. My office is starting to look like a PC cemetery.

they finally sent me one it had 3 dead psu's in it and 1 good one. But cost was 356 it works fine after I grabbed replacement psu's for 11 a piece on ebay.

So 356+33 = 389 for a fully working case. It earns 2 bucks a day and free heat.

Update. Full refund came today.

Sorry for double post.

Was told that order is cancelled and I will be refunded.

9 days later no refund.

original order

So an established company that has done over 14000 orders has held my coin since Jan 24th promised a full refund on July 5th and is yet to pay it. So Octominer is a fail as of now. Hoping to get a refund and let you all know they refunded me.

This is one more reason to delete the guy that is doing a startup that posted on this thread.

If an established company acts the way they did to me a person that purchased 13 octominer racks from them just think what a startup may do.

I will continue to post in this thread until refunded ( fingers crossed).

This looks to be ideal for the home miner with use in someone's garage or basement.

Not to sure I would put this in the living room however.

Wish that my residential power was cheaper, I'd be a buyer if it was!

They emailed me yesterday and offered to refund my 2000 dollars and gave me a coupon to buy other gear from them.

Once I get the 2000 I will buy a gpu rig as it will be decent gear at a good price if gpus ever mine well again.

I will post my usdt address here

0xafBf615123aD56Cf08fCa0F5987FbCbb4DAc2C6B

this is an erc-20 address on my coinbase account.

hope to see the funds soon.

Does this mean they are completely scrapping the immersion cooling product? Did they confirm to you that it was issues with shipping or was it issues with the product itself that has cause this failure to deliver? I really hope somebody get this product figured out because I’ve wanted to go immersion cooling for over half a decade now.

here is yesterday's letter.

@philipma1957 any news? How are the Octotank? Loudness, Cooling?

zip no gear no part refund for the delay .

pretty much a bust.

Man, that’s sucks to hear. This is the sort of solution I’d love to see become a reality. It would really be great if there was a way I could mine in up to 115 degree heat using some sort of device. That way I would feel comfortable leaving it outside in the desert to take advantage of our sweet sweet cheap nuclear energy.

I will keep every posted.

I am hoping to be able to distribute these on the east coast.

As OG said shipping may be a real mofo so if we do start a partnership with them we will need an good understanding of how to ship one and set one up.

It seems like they underestimated the difficulty and cost of shipping these and might be trying to figure out how to streamline their shipping methods to make sure you get it in one piece without them having to raise the price. Just my feeling after seeing their message. I look forward to seeing the results and I’ve always thought solar and immersion cooling was the combo everyone should have.

I went for sea shipping as air shipping was $500 more

I did 1500 + 500 = 2000 all in

If I did air 1500+1000 = 2500

We wanted to test before comment to a container or a ½ container of them.

Oh well. Still waiting as of today.

I’m looking forward to seeing how this all looks and your feedback once it’s installed. I just wish the cooler could operate in a little warmer temperatures. If it could handle being in 120 degrees then it would be absolutely perfect for operating out here in the desert. I hope these products continue to evolve.

These Octotank folks seem to be focusing on home-style coolers only, so I wouldn't be expecting much from them, however, there are many other solutions for places like deserts > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V--cCFr6ng8

Did they give you any valid reasons for this months-long delay?

Let me look at last email they sent me.

this is dated April 18th:

Hi Philip!

Thank you for your support! I'm happy to hear that you have used our GPU rigs previously and were satisfied with them.
We will be having an update shortly regarding Octotank 12. We did several improvements and upgrades on the product that make it more versatile to use and easier to ship. We will be doing an update with the exact details and shipping dates within the week.

Happy to work more closely with you regarding your plans to sell them to your solar array customers. Alex from our team can help schedule a call for next week, so we can discuss it in more detail.

Best Regards,

My answer was :
Harry,
Thank you for your reply. I sent a cc to my partner and will contact him via a phone call today. Once we test and demo the cooler we can determine if and when we make it available to our solar customers as a home heater and water heater.

Best regards

Philip Arcario

that was April 19th

They did no followup

I will try them tommorrow.
