Nope, not at all. I'm way too cheap for Hawaii even if I didn't hate the beach.

Also please note - right now we are just getting an idea of interest. Nothing will be sold. Do not make payments because then I'll refund them and it's annoying.

(there are, however, a few stock 2Pacs available and that'll be a continuing policy so you may not have to buy from resellers only)

Emailed.

This is totally off topic - but why did you name your company gekkoscience? I'm thinking you had the idea during on the beach in Hawaii sipping a tropical drink when a gecko fell on your head... Sort of like Isaac Newton and the apple...

I would advise folks who are interested to email Laura (at gekkoscience dot com) so we can get a bead on market demand. Only gonna have so many of these at the start and I want to know how to divide them up.

Emailed. Thanks for the heads up.

I would guess that's up to her. A forum presence would probably make some things easier.

These will be fun to play with.

Will Laura be making a bitcointalk appearance? Would be nice to see an official gekkoscience agent/id/rep listed.

What the port face looks like. We've got USB-A for 5V power out, and a mini USB for control. 12V can be drawn from either a PCIe 6-pin jack or a 2.1/5.5mm barrel jack (for running off a brick). The blue knob is used to adjust core voltage from about 0.63 to 0.80V chip-level, basically the same range as the 2Pac. It can be assembled with a vertical (pictured) or right-angle (front-facing) adjuster.

Wow! nice to see you got things to this point.  I would think that case designers would prefer the right-angle adjuster.

ill probably take a couple or so.. will the cgminer for these be backwards compatible with the compacs and the 2pacs so i can run them all off the same pi?


He's said yes.

Code:
100MHz (44GH) 660mV/node 2.64V total; 12V 1.4A for 16.8W/0.38J/GH
125MHz (55GH) 660mV/node 2.64V total; 12V 1.7A for 20.4W/0.37J/GH
150MHz (66GH) 660mV/node 2.64V total; 12V 2.0A for 24.0W/0.36J/GH
175MHz (77GH) 693mV/node 2.77V total; 12V 2.5A for 30.0W/0.39J/GH
200MHz (88GH) 715mV/node 2.86V total; 12V 3.1A for 37.2W/0.42J/GH
225MHz (99GH) 755mV/node 3.02V total; 12V 3.8A for 45.6W/0.46J/GH
250MHz (110GH) 770mV/node 3.08V total; 12V 4.4A for 52.8W/0.48J/GH
275MHz (121GH) 770mV/node 3.08V total; 12V 4.9A for 58.8W/0.49J/GH
I think 275MHz is reaching the upper limit of the main regulator.

Should start manufacture this week. Once I have some tested and ready, and all the details figured out, we'll be go for sales.

This makes my heart go thump thump thump. Exciting news!
