I purchased a bitaxe with upgrades from BitcoinMerch for over $300 USD ($400+ AUD) including shipping to Australia. I had an issue with the unit as it was faulty... It took a little bit to sort it out but once I was in contact with Albert Perales, he sorted out the issue very fast with a replacement and a refund for the return postage. I was quite abrupt and irate but Albert was calm and awesome to deal with. He single-handedly has restored my faith in BitCoinMerch. Great support and customer service!! Even if slightly complex and slower than i would have liked, BitcoinMerch is to be trusted and they do the right thing by their customers. Thanks Albert and BitcoinMerch
Haven’t had it a year and it’s crapping out
100% good for new miners and not that expensive
The USB strip doesn’t stay balanced on the table and these fans are actually pretty noisy. These fans are connected to the Mars Lander. Looking back on this purchase I should have gone with the 3x compac a. However I have had problems with keeping the Mars lander hashing continuously. Spending a little $$ might have given me a bit more power but it would have also created a deeper regret when it’s not reliable. I thought about combining a larger 12x-15x usb strip with 3x compac f and 3x compac a and connect it to the mars lander but support couldn’t give me insight into this idea. When I asked what was the highest hash rate the mars lander could produce the support team member literally said “the maximum amount” without providing any more details.
This was my first purchase. It runs 24/7 and doesn’t make noise. I am not expecting much out of this device but who knows?
