May I ask what you are mining and what kind of return are you seeing?

Sigh...shipping you out new panels priority from here...I have them in stock in brooklyn so you should have them monday.

Its a combination of the factory over tightening the heatsink attachment screws and not enough padding in the box...either way both issues have been corrected but I'm sure there are more broken side panels since there was a bunch of units in the same truck going from Cali to east coast.

Just shoot me a PM with your order number and pictures if your units come damaged.

FYI the sub-assembly is built like a tank, so don't worry about functionality...just double check that the metal front case is not bent to the point that its touching anything on the PCBs on the back and you should be fine to start it up.

@ yankees I have yet to burn a card  looking for link to grab image

Phil does it work?

I got a notice it is coming tomorrow.

It is in its 14th city

If it comes straight to Howell NJ that will be 15 cities!

I hope it is not smashed up

Once it comes I will delete these posts   I wonder if it stops in Cranberry NJ then Howell NJ

that gets me to 16th cities

So after 16 city tour of usa my gear arrived.

As feared it is smashed.




inputs look not to be broken


not enough packing

box looks untouched with no marks.  but my unit must of had a ton of handling.

Scanned at every city it stopped in and a few cities had multiple scans

so it was moved, scanned  and handled 19 or 20 times.

Looks like I need both panels  as both are smashed.

95 each?? Isn’t import VAT ~17%? Should not be more than $50.

so my wandering package is still doing that  wandering around PA Now.

A total of 13 cities so far!

Order # 1209 was received at Portugal and two more Apollos are working.
The screws on the sides came without tightening but it was easy to tighten.
Only problem was having to pay an additional $ 95 for each at Customs  !

Yea sorry about your shipment...not sure whats going on but ill call fedex and find out. Probably would have been faster to ship east coast shipments USPS Priority but I don't trust them with $300 packages.

I did not power the first one off after I configured it to just be on wireless so I'll try to re-config the second one once I power down first.
Here's what I did. powered up first one and walked through the initial setup (which was great BTW). Then I enabled wireless, connected to wifi and rebooted without cat 5 plugged in. Once that one was back up and hashing I powered on the second one and repeated the steps. Then I think the first one stopped after I rebooted the second without cat 5.
But its quite possible its user error as I have the flu bug and I trying to rush the setup so I could just relax. if I can't get them both on wifi I'll send the screenshots.

mine has yet to arrive

I dont understand  why it came from CA and Not NY

 it is due today fingers crossed

Best way to set up multiple right now is to just power one on a time, find its IP address set it up, power it down, power up the second one and repeat, then power on the first.

Either way the wifi is buggy right now, but there is no reason why they both should not work. Can you shoot me a screen shot of the Network info side panel for both machines when you get the chance?

Because our factory is in California...at least it’s not coming from China

I set the fan on mine to 15% which is average 2050rpm. Not loud at all. It’s 56-57°C in eco @ around 101-105Mh/s. With auto fan it was around 66°C. I noticed the HW error rate went from 3% down to 0.5% with the cooler temp. Running 6 days straight since last reboot with no issues.

I have two and set them both up last night. I setup the first one and added to my wireless. Then I powered on and setup the second one and it gave me a struggle after I added to wireless. It seemed to me they stepped on each other because the first one quit mining. But its possible I screwed up because I was on NyQuil so I switched one back to wired and both hashing away. I'd like to change the dns name from local to local2 or something just to keep them straight on my network. How can I do that?

BTW, left them both set to default and hashing away at about 102HM. And I can't believe how easy the mining interface is to configure.

Fan is a 6k RPM PWM 92x38mm, but keep in mind all device programing is based on this fan...if the hardware monitor detects RPMs out of range it will auto-shutdown the miner. Fan monitoring is pretty lax, and you can probably get away with a 3-4k RPM fan but in that case it probably wont be able to cool past balanced mode (there is still a over temperature shutdown for that case if the fan can't keep up so you should still be fine).


I overbuild all my products for the worse case scenario, and the fan/heatsink has to be able to keep up in a wide range of temperatures/environments so while the fan is pretty quiet in eco I could have obviously gone quieter but sacrificed top end cooling ability.

does anyone know the fan size in this miner. I want to get a noctua fan of the same size for increased silence

Yea thats the same type of SDXC UHS card as the 64 I tested, so I guess anything past 64 wont work. If anyone else has other 128GB or larger cards they can test let me know.

Either way 64 is more than enough when we release the full node/lightning update.
