Bitaxe Gamma 601/602 Bitcoin Miner, 1.2TH/s, BM1370 ASIC, 18W/TH, WiFi, Silent Home Mining

Fun lotto miner! Running for the last 6 months straight, no issues!

I have ordered 3 of these Gammas from Plebsource and they are all awesome! One of them was overheating right away but all it needed was some new thermal paste and it was hashing in no time. They come with a decent 5v PSU and have an extra Molex 4 pin connector installed for a super easy Noctua upgrade. I may not win the BTC Lottery as others have with these but they are a lot of fun to tinker with and upgrade. Just started experimenting with minor overclocking and they are running 1.5-1.7Th/S easy, with a lot more room to go I think! Just ordered the NerdQAxe++ from them too and will be adding a 4th Gamma soon. Thanks Plebsource - you folks are awesome!

Works as expected and software loaded on with no issues. ASIC runs a bit hot on standard settings. Also sometimes failed to start. Found the power supply included was not quite up to the task as it’s making some high pitched noises. I planned on replacing it with a sturdier psu anyways and as soon as i did that everything worked great.

This little miner had me up and hashing in under 10 minutes — seriously impressive. It’s plug-and-play, simple enough for beginners, yet exciting for seasoned Bitcoiners. Reminiscent of the old Gekkoscience USB miners, but with a modern twist and way more performance. I could see this being a fantastic gift for anyone, from kids learning about Bitcoin to tech-savvy grandparents wanting a hands-on project. The build quality is great, and the community behind it is super supportive. If you’re even a little curious about mining or want to share the Bitcoin journey with someone, this is the perfect starting point.

Overheated in less than one minute after setting up. It's also very noisy, so using the word ''silent'' in the description is an outright lie. Very disappointed in the outcome since it can not preform overheated making it very unreliable to buy and use out of the box. The fan is running, the firmware is updated to current, but still getting an overheated error. Not even heavy enough to reuse as a paperweight.

It's more for learning and less for making money. They're called "lottery miners" because your chance of making money is like winning the lottery. The code is open-source, so you can experiment with different algorithms.

They have overheating problems and a cheap thermal paste that most people have to replace. The fan will make a high pitch whining noise during normal operation. The fan will always be running hard because of the overheating. I have always had to run it at its lowest settings because of the overheating. THE PROVIDED POWER SUPPLY BEGAN FAILING AT SIX MONTHS. THE BITAXE WILL NO LONGER HASH AT ALL AFTER SEVEN MONTHS. EVERYTHING ON ALL SCREENS WILL NOW ONLY DISPLAY A POWER SUPPLY ERROR. (I already tried updating the firmware through multiple releases including the current one. I run a data center as the IT manager. I have operated and repaired real miners. This thing is a waste of money.)

Item came as described. Setup was super easy using the provided instructions to connect to the network, with a solo mining pool pre populated. Enter your payment address and started hashing right away!
