In this video I attempt to fix two Nerd Octaxe Bitcoin miners that suddenly stopped working. These small solo miners wouldn’t turn on, so I started troubleshooting by replacing the fuse. Fuses I used geni.us/uhD8KKa
Thanks to today’s video sponsor:
ASIC Marketplace asicmarketplace.com/?ref=RPM
Use code RPM for $100 off each ASIC order.
At first the miner powered back on after installing a new fuse, but then I started running into current protection errors, firmware issues, and even blowing fuses live on camera.
I also tested:
- Different fuse amperages (15A, 20A, 30A)
- Multiple firmware versions
- Adjusting input voltage
- Several power supplies
Unfortunately, it looks like there may be a deeper hardware issue with these Octax miners.
I currently have 4 Octaxe miners, and 3 of them are having problems, which definitely raises some reliability concerns.
Have you had issues with your Octaxe, NerdQaxe, Bitaxe Gamma, or other mini Bitcoin miners? Let me know in the comments.
I’m also giving away 1 week of hash rate from my working Octaxe miners. Just comment below to enter!
