What would you take for all 10?

I spoke with my friend and he has 8 complete kits left. Let me know where you are located and if you can do pickup. Meeting would have to take place one week from now though as he is around the area doing some research.

Heh...  Feel like taking some AsicMiner shares in trade? Smiley


Are these still worth anything? Haven't they shutdown their cloud mining operation?

Are you in the Ontario/Quebec region by any chance? It would be a lot easier to sell you a bunch if you could pick them up. Shipping is not worth it maybe for this older gen gear. But I'll ask my friend what he wants for all the remaining ones. I think he's sold 1 or 2 already but I will confirm.

This is a long shot, but any chance you would sell a single board from one of the tubes?

That is a weird request but I will pass it on to my friend (they are his miners, I'm the "marketer").

I've been using a 12V 5A power adapter for the controller for mine something like this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Genuine-CWT-Technology-Monitors-equipment/dp/B004HCCVLI

However I think you can use a 1A.

Good to know.  It should be fairly easy to find one that would work.

They don't actually require 5V. There's an internal switching regulator so it'll take up to 12. Most of the ones in my hosting ran on 12V.

Update on the block erupter controller power adapters. Apparently these did not come with any power adapters. My friend says he bought a bunch of 5v cell phone style power adapters but he did not test them. He is currently powering the controllers from a standard ATX PSU. He said he can add the chargers for $5 to $10. But naturally if you can source a cheaper alternative yourself it may be best.



Yeah I don't think they were included in the original shipments from them that's why I asked.  Thanks for the update.

So basically 2 tubes and a controller for roughly 1BTC seems pretty fair. How much is shipping to the USA if that is an option?

It would depend on location. PM me your postal code and we will try to figure out the most economical shipping option. If you live somewhere close to Toronto or Montreal it would be ideal to drive up and pickup the hardware.



I am not really close to the border, but I will send you my postal just to check I guess.

Yup reported to the admins. 

Do the controllers come with the power adapter or are we on our own for those?

I'm sure it does, but to be honest I totally forgot to ask my friend about this. I would not think he'd have any other use for the power adapters so my preliminary answer would be "Yes" it does come with a power adapter for each block erupter controller.

Are you willing to ship to the US?

Yeah we'd be willing to ship anywhere as long as you pay the actual shipping costs.


What is the approx dimension and weight of the box? I will try to get a shipping quote.

You are in Toronto?

Give me a bit to see if my friend still has the original boxes, and if not we'd have to find a suitable substitute. Yes we're in Toronto.

And just about instantly I get a reply from a scammer that can't add 0.51 and 0.09

Negative feedback left.

Note that the account was made in December - he has been waiting a while to try this.

Damn scammers. This forum is getting steadily worse in this regard. Thanks for leaving him negative feedback. Report him to the moderators while you're at it too (report the PM he sent you) and I'm sure they will ban him.

sidehack is correct, we've got 12 separate units at $250 each.

The ASICMiner Tube runs 96 BE200 chips at 270MHz stock, outputting 827GH at approximately 900W of wall power. He's got twelve of them at $250 each, so about 9.6TH for $3k

I am confused.

I never heard of this miner, so is it

12 miners producing 800Gh/s in total for $250

or

1 miner each producing 800Gh/s so total 9.6Th/s for $250 ?

This is either a very very good deal or a very very bad deal.

I will bounce this back to the seller and see if he can maybe lower his price.

~0.75BTC seems a bit high for a 1.1W/GH machine that sold new for 1BTC six months ago. Just throwing this out there, but a pair of S3 (getting 880GH at 700W, not 830GH at 900W) bundled with a PSU would ship for about the same. I like the Tubes, but that's a 100-day breakeven with flat diff and zero power cost.

Asking price is $140 CAD (or equivalent in USD) either in fiat (CAD or USD) or BTC payment. Local pickup available in Toronto or Montreal.
