just don't....

works as advertised but useless for making a profit
Don't get it if you want to make a profit in Bitcoin, those days are long gone.But it can be used for other crypto-currencies.Hashing rate is indeed 336MH/s on average.Make sure you don't touch it while running, it gets really hot.

Works but obsolete
No complaints with the service or product. However if you want to mine less than 50 cents a day and use more than that in electricity then buy this.

You sent it, I liked it, it worked well
The only problem is I now understand that the bitcoin market is being manipulated just like the other money markets in this corrupt world and that the cost of a single bitcoin is now so high it would take one asciminer a very long time to re-coop the outlay unless you have farms of them which is not cost effective, but it was fun to set up and try.

Great for getting started with Bitcoin mining.
I bought two of these erupters at first (I've now ordered another 3 for the rig) to start dabbling into Bitcoin mining. Obviously these aren't going to provide a massive ROI but with the right setup I can see them providing at least a small profit which will (hopefully) increase as I expand the rig.In terms of setting up it can seem a bit daunting at first as you need to find drivers and then you need to work out which software to use for mining. I tried out two options, first using the Zadig drivers with cgminer and the using the CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Drivers with bfgminer. I settled on the latter as it was easier to configure to use all the erupters (-S erupter:all argument).With two erupters plugged in via a powered USB 2.0 hub I'm currently getting between 200MH/s and 1.2GH/s with an average settling around 720MH/s, slightly higher than the stated average of 335MH/s per erupter. I'm hoping that continues with the additional ones that I've ordered.I will give you one warning, these run hot! If they've been running for a little while you don't want to be touching them with bare hands. I'd also recommend some form of cooling/ventilation. Personally I've gone for a couple of USB powered fans running of the hub.Oh and a piece of advice to other newbies in the bitcoin mining world, don't expect to make a fortune with these... you're better off thinking of this as a bit of fun to learn how it all works and just hope to make a bit off it at the same time.

Does what you expect, but warning it runs hot!
Works as expected and is a fun venture in bitcoin mining (you wont make much with this!). Only thing to add is that this runs very hot when in use. It was too hot to touch at one point had to disable and then unplug after a few minutes! Make sure this is kept out of the way and is cooled.

Not going to retire on the profits but ......
A cheap, easy way to get introduced to the world of mining. Simple to set up, go to minepeon and follow instructions for getting a Raspberry Pi and this little miner all set up and earning.To put things into perspective, looks like you'll earn £1 a month if you join a decent pool.

It works great
Warning it does get very hot! Let it cool before touching! But worked straight out the box with very little work on my part.
