Thanks we will take that into consideration for the next batch. It is my understanding that the heatsinks where sourced at a rush because we didn't want to delay shipping any further.
I just remembered I have a temp probe. Would you like me to measure the temps and report back? I could do that later on this evening if you'd like.
I don't have the equipment to accurately measure temperature, sorry.
My Pi is giving an average of 2.33 on MinePeon, with an average of 2.24 at the pool. No special mods, no special drivers, just:- -S BPM:all
Reject rate is 0.81% HW Error rate is 59.23%
simple maths says this is not a true error rate.
2.33Gh less 0.81% = 2.311Gh The pool shows 2.24Gh so corrected HW error rate must be 3.07%
The extra 56.16% is probably down to running a 5Gh chip at less than 2.5Gh.
So with 2.24Gh at the pool I am quite happy for now.
In short ignore the HW error rate, Its not true. The actual figure reported at the pool is the one that pays you.
Sounds like a old version of bfgminer?
Try a git pull
Git pull was done saturday. BFGMiner 3.4.0. Peon 0.2.4 I will do another later. Version 3.6.0 is now out.
Unless it makes the device hash faster does it matter? HW error is just a number. Luke could program it to read 0.00 all the time if he was inclined.
