Finally got my unit today.
501 watts on an EVGA gold PSU.
It is indeed hashing over 14mh/s, but I can't achieve that poolside.
What diff setting are you guys using?
Will lowering the clock speed reduce HW errors? Mine is about 6% HW errors after a half an hour.
dont you think 2 oced gridseed blades will do the same rate with less power and h/w errors for the same price.

hmmm...
what do they advertise the OC blades at?
good question..
I have five blades running standard speed and they're hashing at 28 mhs - 400 watts...
the best price you an find now is on minereu.com
you'd have to do the math power consumption wise . my elec is 12.6 per kilowatt hour
its better if we can get unmodded ones and mod it ourselves. it can easily achieve 6.5~MH/s by replacing the 33k resistor with slightly higher one and 7 MHz+ with a higher resistor and proper cooling.
power consumption 150W~ at 6.5MHz
so it's almost doubles power consumption for an 15% increase in hashing speed. think it's worth it?
stock blade needs 120~W from wall right ? so there is no much difference.
also still better than HASHRA miners
the stock Blade uses 64 - 70 watts per panel so two panels = 140 watts.
multiple that times 5 and you've got 700 watts for 28 MH.
the most efficient unit out there is the A2mini from MinerEU at 250W
Blades don't use anywhere near that much power despite what they say on the website and the box. They pull about 90ish watts from the wall (total, for both panels). On a per Mh/s basis, they use about twice as much as the A2 machines, and half as much as the Zeus machines.
Really the Hashra machines are not impressive at all. They use a ridiculous amount of power, and who knows when you will actually get them. They are a bit cheaper though so there is that. Even so though, here in the USA you can't even run one on a standard household AC circuit. Which means you have to host them, which means they aren't actually cheaper.
