Hy dear Bitmain and dogie,
unfortunately the "new" S4+ has no significant improvement in power to hash ratio and on my personal opinion a decrease in attraction for home miners in Middle europe, US and other countries above $0,15/kWH.
If i may post a wish for a S6 or S7, this would be 0,25W/GH and a noise level below 30db. Technically this should not be an issue for a legit company as bitmain is Wink

Kind regards,
elrippo

I'm convinced the S4+ is just an attempt to make the S5 look like a better value, so they'll sell more of them. This is a marketing tricking to make the lower priced product seem like a better value.

I don't know if I would say that. If you had a warehouse or huge operation this would be a nice product as far as the amount of hash it brings.

With not being 110 its not a product for all, but there are some out there that are it's "ideal" customers.

Ideal customers, anyone that cares about power efficiency and has plumbed 205V+ in already? I paid all of $150 to have an electrician drop in two 240V 20A circuits and they've been paying for themselves with EVGA, LEPA, Antminer, other PSUs running an average of almost 10% more efficient.

And your $150 get's thrown right out the window when you realize that the s4+ is an extra $200 more than the equivalent 2 S5s. And so your 240v line is saving you what? 3 cents an hour?
