Topic: Who likes pod miners? - page 8. (Read 56097 times)
Nice! And vthoang just updated the cgminer repo with terminus support!
My original idea was 4x4 inches, until I noticed that for the board house I was getting PCBs from, 100mm square boards in prototype quantities cost about half as much as 101.6mm boards. Doesn't matter a lot for production quantity.
Or 100mm, which is less than 4 inches.
correction made
Or 100mm, which is less than 4 inches.
now that the product is finalized and almost ready to ship out, can you please provide the full dimension of the pods? i.e. Len x wid x height
Has this been answered?
Here a quote from sidehack on page 22 I believe. answers part of the question haha.
Oh no, it's much smaller than that. Fans are about 50mm. The whole thing is 100mm square. One of these days I'll post a quick sketch of dimensions with corner screw sizes and locations, height with fans, jack positions and the like.
Right now my little guy keeps dropping out, but it's because my Pi locks up. Not sure exactly why and there's a lot of info on here how to prevent that. It's not exactly a new unit and my SD card might be lousy. Gonna talk to Phil about a good reliable setup, he's pretty good at Pi stuff. If we (and the Minera guy) can figure out something decent I'll try and make a Pi controller a kit option.
So about 3.98 inches squared not bad.

ok, I understand that also from reading replies from months ago on the other devices.
hopefully there will be more info soon regarding the pricing/shipping from Germany.

Back when chips were available from the factory, that's how it was done. The only reason I licensed the original Compac design to bitshopper was because he was making them in Germany specifically for EU market.
But not everyone with SMD infrastructure also has chumps available to scrub, strip and sort used chips from retired miners, and not everyone likes to go through all that trouble for what's considered pretty small batches.
Maybe when we catch up with new stuff using new chips, but for the time being there's only the one source (my factory, my people) and in Europe just the one reseller.

I would advise folks who are interested to email Laura
I did 2 weeks ago, answer followed a day later but it was not what I was hoping for.
no price estimation
no shipping costs estimation
and the hint to buy it at bitshopper (read pay 2-3x the original price if you can even get one)
maybe we need some european solder kings who can build it in europe to keep costs down and avoid import costs?
Hello, I plan to dash into the mining of the ripple and Monero and I shall like knowing which equipment is the most performing for the mining of these today.
Help please !
Help please !
You can't mine Ripple and Monero is a totally different crypto. These miners will only mine SHA256 coins... for Monero there are no ASICs, only CPU and GPU mining
Yep.
It doesn't hurt to read before posting in this bitcoin hardware area.

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.
This one's a bit more obvious. Roughly 0.7 inches long. I had to make a change to how zombie recovery was handled in hardware once I got the firmware written, which necessitated a change to the PCB. So I still have all the previous not-as-good PCBs, which can be exactly as functional with the aid of two trace cuts and a jumper wire. But if we can use those, it basically doubles how many I can sell before a restock of PCBs arrive.
Well thats a no brainer go for it.
Those will be fine for my 6.

Awesome how soon can the shipment start ? If not a date then roughly the month it will start.
