Hi,

I placed an order for 10 units on 12/21. It took my bank several days to confirm the wire as they wanted to make sure I wasn't getting ripped off. Innosilicon confirmed my wire on 12/29.

On 1/3, they provided me with a DHL tracking number and I received my units today!

I have put four into service and they all seem to be working as expected within their stated +- 8%.

They came with firmware dated 12/29 and I've only updated 1 of them to the latest version...

Does anyone have the 12/29 firmware version? I updated the one but I'd like to compare the performance to the earlier version.

Running the Jan 5th firmware.
More stable.
More overclock options
now running at 700mh/s and barely warm.

Hello all,

I've had my A4+ up and running for a few days off and on again. I finally got it to take the upgrade to the Jan 5th firmware. Fan speed has now run as low as 40%, and I no longer get the incremental HW errors or whatever those were indicating. They could be as high as 36 after running all night.

I've got mine inside a Macgyverd OSB coffin with 2 AC dust filters at each end and a $20 wall mart fan to push cool air in and hot air out of the coffin/ tube. I'm running it in a large RV building and not taking any chances with dust! BTW this is all a temp setup as I give that fan about 1 week before it burns up Smiley

Gazdac2, care to share the settings you are using to overclock to 700mh/s? Smiley

Anyone else, what would be considered a "safe" temp range for the miners? Either measured at the input air, chip, or output temp. I'm planning to build a fairly elaborate setup with some temp sensors and relays to control all sorts of things like AC units, fans, miner power supplies, etc. and want to have an idea for what I should be shooting for. I'm setup in Florida so I'm doing the reverse GoT, "Summer is coming". BTW I have dirt cheap if not free power through my hot headed friend Sol.
