So they lied about the power specs?? Are they refunding for the difference vs what was promised?? What makes these worth $5500 for 18th/s vs antminer s9 that is 14th/s at $1400 (less with coupons)?? Idk how they managed to make a 10nm miner (i think thats what i read if not sorry) but uses A LOT more power than a miner that is over a year old and counting. Not only that they set the price super high for some odd reason...seems like they got too greedy.
I heard they were selling them in Feb almost twice cheaper than $5800. May be now they can sell it for 15 hundreds lol
Regarding consumption - I'm sorry, let me be more specific
I didn't have opportunity to measure it using some special equipment, but I had power strip designed for max load 2kWt - it was good with 1.8kWt and 1.6kWt loads previously, and it didn't withstand this unit (powered off after ~30min)
So I concluded it's a little bit more that 2kWt (but definitely more than 1.8kWt)
update: 680pll, 19Th, consumption between 2.1 and 2.15kW
