![]() If you are looking for an investment with max return in the Bitcoin mining field, this device is not actually useful unless you can buy it under $15 each and already have a mining rig running 24/7. There are later versions but I am yet to try them and there was issues with version 3.2 You can also use it to GPU mine as well at the same time so if you are still waiting on your USB try with the GPU and see how u do. If you want to get a device to learn about Bitcoin mining this is a great device. This is the windows version I am running at the moment and have and it is a version that works with the USB block eruptor.

It is however MUCH more efficient than a GPU, CPU, FPGA, and most other ASIC devices when compared to their power usage. The idea is to allow all the users of USB Block Erupter, Bitmain AntMiner U1 and. if you connect your usb miner with 2 different usb ports and asap when you connect the 2nd miner into your usb port. This device is not able to make money for you at this point in the Bitcoin age. USB BLOCK ERUPTER (repair and tricks) August 08, 2013, 11:08:55 PM.

The ASICMiner BlockErupter USB Sapphire Miner Specs: Algorithm: SHA256 (Coins Mined: Bitcoin, BitcoinCash, Peercoin, etc.) Hashrate: 330 MH/s Chip: 130nm ASICMiner chip Power use: 2.55 watts advertised (Personally, Ive been getting under 2. 4 watts (a 20% decrease) most likely due to the temperature drop in the voltage regulator, increasing its efficiency and wasting less power in heat. Power cost per month: 19 cents (about 1 KW hour)Īfter adding a heatsync to the USB Block Erupter, it used less power by.BTC per day: not given (varies based on pool).
