Lower efficiency than the Antminer S7 or the announced 3TH Lketc/BW unit, though close.
Fan appears to be the same unit or a very close to the same unit as on the S5/S7, so NOT quiet (makes sense though at the given power level and form factor).

 This thing had better be priced lower than either the S7 or the eventual pricing on the Lketc/BW unit if Avalon expects to sell a significant number of them.


 I am NOT fond of the "auto speed" stuff, that's one of my bigger complaints with the Spondoolies SP20 - can't fine tune the thing yourself, you have to tolerate THEIR assumptions on how you want the thing tuned.

 38C max intake temperature - if that's for full hashrate, it's tolerable, but still kinda low. Seems like this unit could use better heat dissipation design work.


 what is a "golden power supply"? Is that supposed to mean a "Gold Efficiency Rated" power supply?
