** NEW PAID OVERCLOCKS** DEC 8th Update: With the new paid overclocks you will need to take the side panels off your KS0 Pro and add a fan to cool it to use them and you are looking at a max 280GH not 360 at the moment. I'm working on a video about this now and would wait to watch it before thinking of purchasing them.The paid overclocks aren't as simple as the free overclocks were for the KSO with a power supply upgrade flash it and away you go unfortunately.
nice video !thanks for the info ...was really helpfull bro!!
Glad to hear it helped happy mining!
I took the bait bought my first kso pro yesterday just wanne try one out thanks for the video
Your welcome!
"UPDATE" as I mentioned in a comment below I just added all the pool stratum addresses for K1 Pool in the description below the VIDEO so you can cut and paste directly into your miner dashboard, along with the very basic written steps that include extra links to a couple IP Scanners I mentioned in the VIDEO to help with your setup. Hope this helps and if you have any questions please ask.
Which power brick for OC, please?

Thanks for the help I am very GREEN at this
You're very welcome!
Which AC power adapter did you purchase from Amazon or what would you recommend spec wise?
set mine up wrong came to your video to figure out where I went wrong lol. sorted!
That's great I'm glad you're back up and mining!
Great video! How about an instructional video for setting up a 2nd KS0 Pro so you are mining with two instead of just one for us newbies? I've looked and can't find a video on this specific task. Thanks.
It's easy as pie follow the same steps and scan your home network like you did with the first one... and the second miner will show up on your home network with a different IP Address than the first. Put the IP for the second miner in your taskbar press enter and log in to the second miner. Set it up with all the same pool information as the first with the only difference after your wallet address or pool user name depending on the pool you chose put say... as just an example bgdi80n78hghgshgf.ksopro02 that's it and it will show up in the mining pool along with your first miner.
Very tx
Thanks for the tutorial, I just got my first KS0 today. This video helped alot, I am up and mining
That's great I'm glad! I'm going to release a quick video on the paid overclocks as soon as my upgraded power supply shows up which should be anytime.
How much did u pay
For the overclocks? If so it was awhile ago and I can't remember but I know they've dropped their prices for the paid overclocks now.
what website is good
@@Zodiac12355 Good to purchase a KS0 Pro?
Hi, thanks for this, very useful. How often does the humpool payout and do I need to do anything to get this?
Humpool pays out twice a day every 12 hours.
Can you please share the link of the power supply you purchased. Thank you for the excellent content - greatly appreciated!
This is the 230 watt one I purchased but you can get away with 180 watt if you're using the 280GH file.
geni.us/qzb4vuX
Great video Chuck. Would probably pickup a tangem later on. Maybe I'm blind. Where is the link for the PSU?
I added the 230 watt version in the description below the video .
Great vid. Thanks. Why did you use an x for the pasword? I'm not clear on that part. Also is there any reason not to use the SSL of the pool stratum address? It's there as an option and seems like it would be the more secure option. Thanks
To be honest it's just a habit. Some mining pools with certain miners "very few"you need a password and 99.9% of them you don't and its your choice if you chose to add one or not, which I usually say in my videos but I may not have mentioned it in this one.
awesome content. I live in Central Brazil with 35C + temperatures . Do you think the KS0 would overheat and crash even with extra fans?
No if you add an extra cooling fan and remove the side panels on the miner will be fine assuming you don't plan to overclock it.
Yeah, it works fine, but I am thinking about overclocking it but my worry was that I'd damage the miner .cheers
Thanks, Uncle Chuck. Got my first miner today and got it up and running 👍. Do you know how to delete a worker in K1Pool? I added it twice. Thanks again for the video
It deleted by itself, I guess for no usage. Still learning
Your welcome and yes it will disappear on its own as you found out. If you ever have a question feel free to reach out and ask.
@@miningwithunclechuck Hey Uncle Chuck , could I get some feedback from you? Oc'd my KS0Pro, external fan 12v fan with shroud, ends off, no heatsinks (stock), been running for 3hrs...Avg 295gh/s, 150.2watts (with ext. fan running) approx 1.95 gh/watt, Temp in: 27, out: 58. It's in my basement cold room room temp is 60F/15.5C. I'm extremely happy, what do you think, or am I missing something? Thx
Based on your setup I would say your doing well, as I have two KS0 Pros overclocked with external fans and ones sitting around 280gh and the and the second around 290gh no extra mods as I can't be bothered for the minimal extra gains to be honest.@@dbryan6542
Is the PSU FOR EU or US plug connector? as I don't see options on their website
Great tutorial. I added your referral code. Where do I see what my pool fees are and how much I save with the referral code, I dont see it? ...Also my miner comes up as noname in the dashboaard even tough I have it named properly. Any Ideas? Thanks
Your K1 pool fees are typically 1% paid.The referral code gives you a discount on your first month of fees and to be honest I can't seem to see that on the pool where they actually mention that so I messaged support. As far as your miner name make sure you put under where it says Wallet/Worker in the dashboard of your miner, put your K1 pool account ID and something like this just made up of course. KrTCFLlBTRGYTR.asic
Replace ASIC in my example with your miner name of choice and it should pop up in the dashboard of K1 Pool.
GREAT tutorial, Chuck! May I ask how much the KS0 pro is earning per day without overclocking? Thanks so much!
At this time you're looking at around .98 total income before electrical costs a day before electrical. That's based on .10 cents a KW.
@@miningwithunclechuck Thanks for that info!
Can u use different pools at ones like k1pool USA and Kaspa pool org on one miner or better use one sort of pool for one miner and another for second ( the same model miner ks0 pro)?
You could put a backup pool stratum address in your miner dashboard for another pool in case there is an issue with your main pool, and it will switch to your second pool choice in the dashboard of your miner if you set it up that way. You have the ability to have three different pool stratums but I recommend sticking with one main pool and entering a second stratum address option for your main pool if available. For example your pool might have an East,West or EU stratum option of which you should choose the stratum address closest to your location and the others as backups 2 and 3 in your miner dashboard but you don't have to.
partner i need some help related to this video
i live in a dorm and while i have wifi access, it seems the ks0 pro doesnt support wifi !
the wifi router is in a different room, and i am planning to put the ks0 pros in my room, is there is a way to get those miners online using a secondary router/access point/bridge or whatever ?? how to get them online when they dont have wifi built in and the main router is far away from them ?? am sure there is a solution just what is it ?!...
thank,
If you could get access to the router in the other room and connect a wifi extender to it, then put the extender in your dorm room, as most extenders will have an ethernet port on the back. Then you could plug the miner into that. I know that works as I did that in my basement when I had a miner at home. There might be another way just telling you what I did that worked for me.
i have a question before i buy i want know if i can turn off my laptop, would my miner still work or do i have to leave it on?
Your computer is only needed to log into the dashboard of the KS0 Pro and get it setup for the first time with getting it connected to a mining pool, after that your computer is not needed unless you need to re login to the dashboard of your miner again to make changes or check operating function such as temps as example.
is the password field on the stratum address one you set or is it just x?
I usually just put X in the password field to be honest.
Can more than one KSO PRO miner be used to mine on the same network - one router/same VPN?
Yes you can, when you scan your home or work network wherever your miner is setup using Advanced IP Scanner or Fing as an example like in my video, each miner you have connected to your network will show up in the scan results with an IP address for each miner connected to your network.
What these videos fail to clarify is if you mine Kaspa via a pool, the UTXO's are overwhelming and you can only transfer like $20 at a time because Kaspa is limited to 80 UTXO's or so. How do you get around this? I couldn't swap $100 worth because of too many UTXO's. Kinda defeats the purpose and the profit. Anyone find a way around this?
Not sure your problem to be honest. As an example.... if you mine Kaspa using the mining pool ViaBtc you can transfer your daily mining rewards to CoinEx for zero fees and swap in CoinEx to pretty much any crypto you want. Once in CoinEx you will incur a small fee which is normal on any exchange but you can use their swap function in the exchange easily and takes seconds. I think the minimum swap is $5. That's only one example for you. I do this everyday as I convert all my mining rewards to BTC daily for the moment with all the currencies I mine.
Looks like it doesn't have the 2.5mm smaller pin you need to plug into the miner that spec is key.
Can you send the Kaspa coins directly to an exchange, e.g. Gate or KuCoin? If so, how does that work?
Although not advised to keep your crypto on any exchange for long periods of time yes, you can mine to an exchange directly. Just use your deposit address for your exchange account for Kaspa. Put that address in your minor or set your payout wallet address for the mining pool your using to that deposit address of your exchange. Again I recommend not to keep any balance there for any long periods of time.
@@miningwithunclechuck Thank you for the information. So the coins would be safer on your own Kaspa wallet? OK.
Is there a good router to use or it really doesnt matter ?
To be honest it doesn't really matter and if you decide to add more miners in the future as you don't have enough ethernet ports on the back, you can easily add an ethernet switch to add more ports.
Hi how much have you made in the last month approximately? Thinking of starting mining but the amount of Kaspa per day has been going down from other RUclipsrs.
I wouldn't waste your cash at this point to be honest on the KS0 Pro . I only have two of them, one overclocked and one not and the non overclocked one is around $1.58 a day before electric and the overclocked one is about $1.70. I do have 11 or 12 full size Kaspa ASICS mining at the moment as well though.
@@miningwithunclechuck ah okay thank you so much for the information! U got another sub
Cool video, can i add more than 3 miners? I already bought 5
Sorry add more than 3 miners to what specifically may I ask?
@miningwithunclechuck I'm new in mining, i ordered x5 ks0pro 200gh and my question was if i can setup 5 miners to work together in the mining setting section you know
@@FunnyVideo-os2nh Yes.... you are going to probably want to get yourself a digital switch something like a TP-Link TL-SG108 | 8 Port or similar as they are cheap and plud it into your router. Plug your miners into the switch and scan your home network like in the video and your miners IPs with all show up there. Take the miner IPs and log into each one individually and setup them up like in the video and you should be good to go. One more thing make sure to add as an example .ks0pro1 .ks0pro2 and so on after your wallet address or user name "depending the use you use" in the dashboard of your miner so when you log into your mining pool dashboard, you will be able to differentiate all your miners connected to the pool.
@miningwithunclechuck thanks
@ unclechuck, i think it helps me, keep up the good work 👏
Much appreciated thank you!@@FunnyVideo-os2nh
mate, if we knew what we were doing we wouldnt be looking for videos. slow down!
I'm here to help sorry if the video seems a little fast I was trying to cover a little more than just setup.
I just updated in the description below the video all the links and basic setup including the pool stratum addresses for K1 Pool for people to copy & paste to make things easier.
Lmaoo
I have a question about mining pools
Specially, K1 pool
Ok what is it?
Can you overclock it to where it hashes more than 200Gh?
DEC 8th Update: With the new paid overclocks you will need to take the side panels off your KS0 Pro and add a fan to cool it to use them and you are looking at a max 280GH not 360 at the moment. I'm working on a video about this now and would wait to watch it before thinking of purchasing them.The paid overclocks aren't as simple as the free overclocks were for the KSO with a power supply upgrade flash it and away you go unfortunately.
I setup my KS0 PRO. The green led is flashing. Im not sure what that means. Its the led above the red one.. thanks
Sorry I should have been more clear I was looking at my regular KS0s when I was answering this.... My overclocked KS0s both red and green lights are on when connected to a pool and mining. The KSO Pro both red and green are on when I power up and the red goes out after the miner runs through its boot sequence and the green flashes letting you know there is no issues with the miner. UPDATE so I've had a couple people message saying there red light stays on as well on there KS0 Pro like the KS0, but mine goes out after boot sequence odd... I have another one coming so I will be able to confirm this in a week or so.
Well I am not connected to the pool then. I'm a hardware dev and would not have a red LED one when it's in a positive steady state. Weird engineering. When I connect to the pool the red and green LEDs are on but then I get an abnormal on the Iceriver hashrate on the Iceriver program that I used the IP address to get into it. I will go and download the user guide on the site. This thing and it's LEDs are in a weird state. I worked as a hardware Engineer and NEVER put a red LED on solid unless it's in a fault state!!!!
Your welcome to email me direct and I can try to help you chuck@unclechuck.ca@@garykostelec1327
I think I got it. I really thought i was in a fault state with that red led being on. So, I downloaded the user guide and sure enough that is their normal run mode. So weird to me!
@unclechuck A new symptom, both LEDs are flashing in unison. I think is a thermal fault. The fans are not spinning. This thing has been a pain.
When i start ks0 pro miner but can turn off pc?
After you've logged into the dashboard of your KSO Pro using your PC and set it up for the first time, you can turn your PC off after that.
I can't find much info on setting up a ks1. Using a wifi extender thanks.
The wifi extender I have at home has an ethernet input on the back of it and I would get yourself something like a TP-Link basic 5 port gigabit switch TL-SG105E or similar and plug that into the back of your wifi extender. That will get you 4 remaining ethernet inputs to plug miners into then, scan your network with an IP Scanner. Now I'm not sure what you have specifically and nor do I guarantee 100% it will work for you but it should. I had a couple box miners hooked up to mine a couple years ago that way.
@@miningwithunclechuck I don't use a extra box but I hooked straight in but PC can't connect. To miner. Through the extender. I see it. But cant connect. Still working on it.
Can you see your miners ip address after you scan your network connected directly to your wifi extender?@@headsnap2710
cuz I had to update the firmware of miner not a clue
Hello, I'm having an issue with my KS0 Pro. It reaches the usual hashrate (200GH). However, after about 30-40 minutes, it stops mining and drops to 0, displaying an "abnormal" status at the top. I've performed a factory reset and updated the firmware. Does anyone know what can be done about this or any potential fixes?
Can you confirm that you have a solid connection between your miner and your home router? Which mining pool are you using?
@@miningwithunclechuck I am connecting it to an Ethernet, and my internet is good. I tried with different Ethernet cables, and it remains the same. I even tried connecting it to a range extender to see if that would work, but still nothing.
Do you happen to have an old router kicken around? If you do swap it out and see if you have the same issue. I had another person on here that had an issue like yours and his router was the culprit. He had to login to it and change a security setting. Sorry I can't Renner what he changed.
im little confused my miner isnt showing up as worker on site
Make sure you have the stratum address correct for K1 pool if that's the pool you're using. Look in the description below this video I have included them there for you to cut and paste. Second make sure you have your K1 pool account ID that's at the top of your K1 pool dashboard entered correctly in your miner dashboard as well. If you've added a worker name make sure you put a period after the K1 pool ID. Example dfhdgsjt45uhvjug.asic where ASIC would be your miner name of choice.
@@miningwithunclechuck I seen what I did wrong when i copy and paste it that screen didn't show the start of it so I left it then copy paste so start was doubled vs just once
Does anyone know how to export mining info for tax purposes from K1 Pool?
Maybe somebody else will chime in on this, sorry I can't help on this one.
