got a big hydroponics fan jobbie comming tonight and some ducting, going to try vent all the room heat out of the window lol
sharpblunt007 · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:17 PM UTC
Yea, but weirdly enough I got to a point where I OC’d past 600, temps were fine but my rejected shares went up drastically :/ makes no sense right?
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:18 PM UTC
@djliss : how many you running?
mycide · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:18 PM UTC
got one board on L3+ that got one die dead on slight oc, that gives me 0.3% 24/h but to get it back the down clocking will return far less then one die dead.. so i kept it oced
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:19 PM UTC
have to balance and judge the pros and cons
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:20 PM UTC
just the one L3+ 3 x gridseed blades and an equihash rig, all gpus running at 70 degrees lol
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:21 PM UTC
so getting very hot in the room
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:21 PM UTC
and the window is wide open, its about 10 degrees outside at the mo in the uk
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:22 PM UTC
you need to put a box fan in the window blowing outside
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:22 PM UTC
you dont need to vent the hot air to the window
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:22 PM UTC
you need to pull the air to the window from the window
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:23 PM UTC
but every cooling solution is different
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:24 PM UTC
was thinking to vent the hot air out the room, close the door to create a negative pressure to pull cooler air from the rest of the house, got something to seal the window around the ducting
sharpblunt007 · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:25 PM UTC
Yea, I’d recommend attaching some ducting straight over your exhause of your L3 and putting it out the window, that’s what I’ve done and it works perfectly
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:25 PM UTC
if it was just 1 miner he could, not if its a room with 4 rigs in it
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:26 PM UTC
D3, S9, L3 pretty ez to vent out to a window...how do you exactly vent 7 video cards on a mobo to a window?
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:27 PM UTC
put a card board box over it with a inline fan and some ductwork?
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:27 PM UTC
blow everything towards the window and then just put a box fan in the window
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:27 PM UTC
my first setup i went all crazy 3 fans all over the place pulling from the door, pulling from the window
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:28 PM UTC
after 1 month i had it worked out to be all of 1 box fan in the window pointing outside
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:28 PM UTC
it blew the hot air out, and that auto pulled cool air in from everywhere else
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:28 PM UTC
didnt have to do anything else
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:28 PM UTC
ran it that way for 2 years
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:30 PM UTC
i’ll have to tinker lol, was thinking of putting it all in the loft but in summer it wont work, gets hot up there without any equipment!
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:30 PM UTC
got all my switches and nas units in the loft but they dont create much heat
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:31 PM UTC
anyone wanna buy a readynas 2100 or 2
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:33 PM UTC
or some cdj’s, or a surface pro 1, will take crypto as payment or paypal lol

i cant see that being each lol, that would be nice!!!
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:37 PM UTC
does it matter what coin you get paid out in i have a mix of ltc and btc
mickeekung · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:44 PM UTC
DASH diff right now is 40M 3x in 1 month.
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:46 PM UTC
.33 each X21 = over 7 coins a day
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:47 PM UTC
not quite noon yet, up to 199 for the day
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 04:48 PM UTC
only 3.18 coins so far though
mycide · Fri Nov 10, 2017 05:22 PM UTC
i had to make two air intakes and then i use an inline thermostat controlled 150mm ventilation fan, sucking air from opposite side of ventilation, placing the rigs inbetween facing rig intake to fresh air intake wall.
mycide · Fri Nov 10, 2017 05:25 PM UTC
got 8 rigs in 20 sqm storage beside the garage, keeping it snug at 25 degree celcius, using exhausted heatbehind my air/water heatpump, and another 100mm heat mover fan also thermostat controlled, venting into my growhouse, built on the side of the storage, keeping it around 15-20c
mycide · Fri Nov 10, 2017 05:26 PM UTC
still picking tomatoes and cucumbers in Sweden ^^
mycide · Fri Nov 10, 2017 05:27 PM UTC
wish i had room and capacity for twice or tripple the size farm, but elecitricty fees would start hurting
Kfedorek · Fri Nov 10, 2017 05:30 PM UTC
no compensation for when PH was messed up?
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 05:31 PM UTC
doubtful, compensation usually when things arent recorded correctly and they have profits to pay
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 05:31 PM UTC
but if they are down then they dont have anything to pay, have to have backup polls set for downtimes
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 05:32 PM UTC
or switch if it seems like its a bad day.

mickeekung · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:16 PM UTC
Share stale and reject hashrate just rise for 1 hour. Please check if something was wrong.
mickeekung · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:17 PM UTC
However, overall for today is better than previous.
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:30 PM UTC
back home now where should security tab be?
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:35 PM UTC
on the fan that seel the back cover
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:35 PM UTC
the side you plug the powers into
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:35 PM UTC
if you remove those 4 screws that back panel comes off and you can slide the hashboards in and out.
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:36 PM UTC
to have them serviced, or to swap them with lesser boards, but once opened people dont take returns
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:37 PM UTC
yeah no stickers anywhere
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:38 PM UTC
if facing the back pannel exhaust side, should be the top left hand one
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:38 PM UTC
its a blue tape over the screw and the machine that seals it
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:39 PM UTC
the only way to open the case is to break that seal
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:39 PM UTC
if its not there they probably had it opened before they shipped it out to you so who knows what all happnened to it
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:39 PM UTC
nothing there, i’ll upload some pics
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:39 PM UTC
issue with buying used miners later on ebay, if they were still new or just came in great
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 06:40 PM UTC
but taking a chance on ebay

glad i baught £100 bch a week ago lol
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:03 PM UTC
and those are the pics of the miner, no seal there!!
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:05 PM UTC
i take it bitmain wont touch it any ideas how much a hashing board is? if he refunds me enough for 1 that’ll do lol
pavvappav · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:11 PM UTC
The bitmain warranty is non-transferable -- its tied to the account used to buy the miner. You may be able to ship it to them and pay for repair service, but it would probably be faster to get a new miner and try to sell that one on ebay.
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:18 PM UTC
thats where i got it from lol
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:19 PM UTC
put in a return request but havn’t heard anything, ebay should refund me with a bit of luck
pavvappav · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:20 PM UTC
probably, if you used paypal.
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:21 PM UTC
paid most by paypal and £700 in btc, so don’t mind paying £700 for it as i won’t get that back
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:22 PM UTC
its obviously not as described lol
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:23 PM UTC
plus faulty to a fashon, i bet he overclocked the shit outta it
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:23 PM UTC
oh well, you live and learn lol
ProHasher1111 · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:35 PM UTC
Efficiency @ 89%...what’s the deal?
mickeekung · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:44 PM UTC
@ProHasher1111 Your profit may lose to your stale shares.
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 07:49 PM UTC
its dropped to that a couple of times but back up relative quickly, unless it stays there i wouldn’t worry

I found on Amazon you can select 2 years of Square trade at checkout for $42. I never buy warranties but on something like this its a no brainer for $42.
holygoof · Fri Nov 10, 2017 08:51 PM UTC
Hey guys, anybody here know how long a L3 miner lasts? I know each device varies in its parts and ability
sharpblunt007 · Fri Nov 10, 2017 09:00 PM UTC
@holygoof it depends, on whether you OC, what environment you run it in, temp and humidity, and how often you clean and maintain it. I think it could last a couple years with regular cleaning and keeping cool, the fans will go before the chips or boards do, and even then, the other boards should still function, won’t all die at once
sharpblunt007 · Fri Nov 10, 2017 09:00 PM UTC
Use a air duster to clean though so you don’t damage the chips
AppleMiner · Fri Nov 10, 2017 09:02 PM UTC
how long will you be able to run it at a profit...probably less than the life of the machine.
Rocketnutz · Fri Nov 10, 2017 10:41 PM UTC
I tried to register - but it’s poping up a 20k user limit????
Rocketnutz · Fri Nov 10, 2017 10:49 PM UTC
not sure - cannot register an anncount
fallingcurtain · Fri Nov 10, 2017 10:51 PM UTC
hmmf..You probably not missing much.
djliss · Fri Nov 10, 2017 11:02 PM UTC
seems ok to me lol, but what do i know?
fallingcurtain · Sat Nov 11, 2017 12:49 AM UTC
93% after an hour with 20 stale shares
fallingcurtain · Sat Nov 11, 2017 12:50 AM UTC
Its actually looking good so im sticking around
fallingcurtain · Sat Nov 11, 2017 12:51 AM UTC
Its odd because my miner is reading that its found 933 blocks in the last hour and my othe rminer reads 344
