The 606 may not be made with Bitfury chips, but I'm still planning on orange.

You are exactly right about the reason. We are GekkoScience, after all.

...

Also, I intend to keep this formfactor around. If we can ever get Bitfury stuff working, there'll be a 6-chip Bitfury Terminus R606. It'll be orange.

Hehe ... did some reading on past posts...

Is the reason for the name and color?

Yes, very closed. I made a few hundred, but something with the chips was causing an unacceptably high failure rate so I shut it down.

You can do it Sir,

Keep it up! ... troubleshooting... analysis... testing and re-testing, re-engineer and the cycle repeats...  Wink
that is where the fun and joy is till the root cause is discovered and resolved.

Appreciate all you have done and contributed into starting and supporting the pods spirit!

Thank you and looking very much to see the new Terminus 2 launch soon, and get hold of a few too ...  Grin

does not give a rats ass about shitcoins

This is almost a direct quote of my stated opinion. The one exception being, SHITCoin proper is an actual cryptocurrency set up as a joke but in that way is more honest than at least 95% of available altcoins.

But yeah I do BTC stuff. If you want something else talk to jstefanop, who does scrypt stuff.

^^ Er?
Sidehack does not give a rats ass about shitcoins. He only works with BTC devices and this is the wrong place to push token sig campaigns.

Hey Sidehack,

I had sent one of my Terminus in for repair a while back and have not heard from anyone, would you be able to give me an update on it.

Thanks

Nice work i like it. You are a genie.

Genie = https://www.halloweencostumes.com/i-dream-of-jeannie-costume.html

Such genies imply the use of magic smoke.

Terminus R808 - magic smoke = bad thing.

Therefore: NO GENIE FOR YOU.

Whoops I must have forgot to mention I have a new pod miner in development, the Terminus R808. It still uses BM1384 (8 of 'em, hence the name) that should run 100GH off a 12V3A brick and 140GH from a 5A brick. Haven't fully tested yet but it should run that 100GH without a fan (turn it on its side for improved convection), and it has adjustable core voltage and built-in 80C thermal shutoff. At four inches square, it's the smallest not-stick Bitcoin miner made in what, two years?

Everything works except the main Vcore power is misbehaving so I'm redoing that part from scratch. The new layout is already done and I'll be sending off for prototype PCBs tomorrow. It also already works with VH's current cgminer build.

My test unit (running off a hacked external buck) is hashing away at 250MHz (110GH) as seen in the link above.

It's pretty standard for the price of something to double every time it changes hands.


It varies quite a bit depending on the type of item and often on the specific item, but most tech-related stuff tends to have a markup between 60% and 100% at every distribution level.

I have a pair of them running @ 250 MHz and 107.5 GH/s each. They've been going non-stop (except for system reboots) 24/7 for over two months straight. One has gone solid light, but still hashes fine. Have them on a wire shelf on their side with a 5" desk fan pointed at the bottom of the boards.

I'm definitely on-board for the new pods!
