Will be posting a simple DIY guide for making your own cables for these units soon. If you have a bunch of molex or pci-e laying around from your GPU days you can use them to help power the Gridseed units.

Look forward to this, when will u post it?

I actually did get my knowledge from Summersideguy and Miaviators post. Their post have been very helpful in helping me get things up and running. How ever I'm going to show the step by step breakdown of what I did exactly for the noobs like me who have no electrician knowledge.

PM me when you get this made, I'll link it in the Guide.

Here you guys this is what I did to make my own cables

There are many guides on here already including guides to powering through PC PSU, See below for some links and some pictures I have thrown on here for using a molex end to plug.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=494625.100
See images below, as well as a link to a forum thread with all the wiring scematics.


I have 2 miners atm so I am using ide molex entension cables I had lying around to power both and if need be the controller.

The top 2/3 of the forum thread below has molex and PCIE power connector scematics as well as USB
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=494625.100

Ans yes you can wire that pcie cable to your barrel connector, rem the inside barrel is V+ if you have a barrell connector the and if the wires are not color coded inside then on the outside on one of the black's there should be whitish-grey stripes or a solid line, it may be clear it may be faint, but this is the V+ line of the barrell connector. The link I posted above will tell u the scematics of your PCIE, but it is fairly straight forward, you have 3 yellow which ar 12V+ and 4 grounds. Do not wire a control board to this as it only requires 5V+

Also I have a question about the groupbuy does the price include shipping, if not what is shipping to Canada Per unit, Thanks

Escrow?

I can do that for only things I have on hand... If you would like I can escrow for you a couple of Gridseeds controllers, and power bricks, I also have some gpu's selling for reasonable offer accepting escrow, but for a group buy I can only accept bitcoin no escrow

How is it that you are able to produce pictures of the miners, yet you imply that they are not on hand?

In the OP I stated that my 1st GB purchase was for myself and friends. I wanted to host this public GB the reasons stated in my previous post here. I explained everything in the post about the escrow situation. For the members that pm'd me about ordering I have never once tried to convince them to hand over their money.

It's all a bit strange - the fact that reputable members have offered escrow free of charge and he has declined also doesn't help.

This is my LOL to cooldgamer nothing personal. My name spelled out with my own hand writing.
I stand corrected, tou'che and good luck with this

ha feel kind of discouraged now. When I first started this in January my goal was to one secure whole sale price for myself and friends which was "Frank"ly a very slow process. Secondly, and don't bash me help the Microcoin community by offering them a chance to spend their coinage on Gridseed or [GPU's/w escrow].

I would love to offer escrow, but unlike atario I will not be able to finance this whole operation on my own hence the GB. I will try to secure a loan but idk if my 200min will be honored by the time I receive the loan if I do. By then there will probably be 1k minimum seeing as a lot more ppl are starting to resell.

After all that being said their are a few ppl interested in 50 units of the 200 with no escrow. Nothing fulfilled yet.

Group Buy for Gridseed 5 Chip units as low as $175
No Accessories Included



About me:

Like you guys I'm a fellow miner looking for the best deals to ROI. When the Gridseeds 1st launched I noticed that the resellers here were charging 100-150% over retail value opted out of that horrible deal, and decided to take matters into my own hands. I did a private group buy with a remailer and a few friends and finally was able to get some gear that will roi. I'm here hosting a GB for you fellow miners that also want a chance to return on investment.

Group buy:

Target group buy is 200 Girdseed miners. This group buy is for the Gridseed 5 chip units only.
If you need cables, Cablez is currently developing cables that you will be able to hook up to your modular ATX PSU. I will be ordering from him as soon as he releases it.

Group buy options:

[5 Gs] = $190/unit
[10 Gs & controller]= $185/unit
[20 Gs & 2 controller] = $175/unit
[200 + bulk order pm me for a quote]


Spec:

300-400kh/s for LTC mining.
7-9W/unit.

Payment:

BTCitcoin (based on Coinbase)
1NwEE7C2hVLSNGwSrFvsYgTrKddCvfhRwY
Note: Do not post your payment detail here in comments. I don't need some doosh bag trying to use your payment, and I have to come back and sift through the comments in this thread.

Shipping:

Packages will be delivered directly from China to minimize shipping wait time, via DHL or Fedex. Units will be shipped 7 days plus or minus a few days after the group buy is complete.

How to Order:

PM me like so and put order in the subject line

^ @ cooldgamer, dude what are you trying to do here? these pictures are not photo shopped, I compressed the image because the original size was 1200x1000 and when I placed the image code in here the thing was damn near ginormous. please stop stinking up this thread with false accusations.

So post the original, uncompressed version on imgur and provide a link.  Huh

Will do after work for sure you'll see the image is huge!

A better proof is just to take some new photos and put 5-6 labels with your username all over it.

In any case anyone with a decent reputation can arrange a gb by buying 20 units retail and taking BTC only instead of esrow and Paypal. If you are serious you have to offer this.

Every wonder why no one really takes paypal? Because they will freeze the sellers account. Like they did to me and it took me 2 weeks to ship the goods and get it unfrozen all the while paying for it all myself.

Btw, for gb organisers and buyers. Gridseed just raised the minimum buy to 500.

ps, To me that looks photoshopped. The text seems to just float on the paper and the shear angle is not correct.



I will and put it in hand writing, I didn't not photoshop I compressed the image that's what you guys are seeing there jesus Christ. I'll take new pics.
And sorry but im not taking paypal, btc only no escrow

@ droid we can do that.

Look close around the letters, you can see it's got a fuzzy texture that surrounds them all on the paper.

But that's how jpeg compression works, artifacts will be visible in high contrast parts of the image. It was designed to compress natural photos well, gif produces less artifacts in those situations.
