- Hi guys!
It's a sad day. The bitcoin lottery machine has died! After 26 days of hashing strong it's hit the dust! Kind of. I'll be seeing what Canaan will do regarding repairing and replacing and if there's no luck I'll DIY it!

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Avalon Nano 3. We’re sorry to hear about the issues you’ve encountered. If the fan is still blowing but the background shows a fan failure or idle status, it could indicate a connection issue or a sensor malfunction.
We did see that you've reached out to us about this issue and will have our after sales get back to you ASAP.
I have two in my living room but was getting an issue with them disconnecting from the internet, the router was in same room. I've moved both into outside mining shed now with cooling fans etc and no problem for 5days straight now. Good luck
Mine was disconnecting for the first few days then stabilised. I would recommend setting it to medium for now if you don't want it to meet the same fate! Updates will be posted
Just wondering if you guys have achieved more stability as mine keeps dropping out of wifi after 1 hour or so
That's interesting. The day after I received my nano I took it apart and removed the plastic mesh on the front. It helped with temps as it increased airflow
I'm trying to keep mine together for now to not void the warranty. I think crypto miners need to get out of the mentality of needing to modify something as soon as you get it to make it run longer or more safely. If it dies it dies!
@@BlueBearCrypto That's an awful idea, I took those plastic mesh off immediately as well, mine have been running swimmingly the entire time
Just a tip if you didnt know. To improve airflow, you could remove the back cover too, it just comes off like the front cover. It does expose the fans but i dont think thats really a problem...
I've done this since but didn't realise it just popped off! Thanks man
I have two, the first one is still going strong but the second one died after a month - been sent for repair.
@@CaptainCodeman not good man! I think this be a very common thing soon #nano3gate lol
Could just be unlucky / teething problems, depends what % have issues. It's a bit warm to have them on right now anyway but hopefully it's back soon.
Because off the power use I mine on slow or medium. It feels not okay too let it cook at high settings and for sure not in the summer 😅
That's fair, i don't feel too bad keeping it on high right infront of a cool side vent, but also the stress test of seeing how long it lasts interests me
same here. but the fan of my nano isn't working anymore. also it starts only if it's connected through a usb-a to c cable. but then it says nonsupported adapter.
That sounds like a proper dud. Have you contacted support?
I use my Nano on Medium setting not high and i have mine situated in my lounge and not had any issues.
I bought it with the intention of getting the most out of it. Seems like keeping it on high mode might be asking too much of it for long periods, but if that's the case then it seems it shouldn't be an option to choose
@@BlueBearCrypto Yes I agree it should not be an option to choose as you would want this to keep going long term possibly get 4 to 5 years out of it but maybe that's asking a little bit to much. Hopefully it can handle being on High as question is how long will those small fans hold out for before they give in considering it's something you will leave on 24/7?
@@techology7567 the fans will definitely get pushed more on high. But it's an ASIC at the end of the day, every asic has that challenge of lifespan
Mine is exactly the same.
Did yours recover after leaving it off for a while?
please keep me updated , will they give you a new one? you just lost it? is this normal that this happened? better med or slow mode then high?
I'll be updating the response I receive. I've not heard anybody else having issues with it not working but almost everybody says it feels too hot. I would recommend staying off high for now until we get some response or idea what's happened
omg that scares me... i got running it 2 days, always do high mode, but i only run it 12h and let it rest at night.... if they all get killed that easily we overpaid :P
After the recent update it had last week it is now stopping every couple of days. Seems to loose hash and I have to reset the network settings. Maybe I can try lowering it to Medium and see what happens.
Wow. Gonna avoid updating for now then thanks for the heads up! Medium seems to be the safe option but when you get a miner you kinda wanna get your money out of it!
My Avalon Nano 3 also died the same way. If you know how to fix it, please help us.
I turned mine off for a full day then back on the next day and it started running again
My nano just stopped working no power at all. It only been about 3 months
@@handerson648 try leaving it off for a night and trying again in the morning. Mine didn't turn back on straight away. If there's no power at all sounds like there might be a power supply fault though
my question is : are you send it back to your seller? did you buy on minershoop UK?
I didn't send it back as it came back to life after 24 hours of being off, it does still disconnect intermittently but until it goes off for good i'll keep it running
Did you have a 3rd party power supply, or did it come with the unit?
This is the original supplied by Canaan with the miner
Not enough ventilation
I'll have to leave it outside with an umbrella and hope for the best!
Hi, do you mind to guide me how to found that wed page Avalon computing monitoring? I wouldn't find it. Thanks advance
If you've connected your nano 3 to the internet the display should show the IP link number. E.g. 182.168.1.XXX if you type this number into your URL you will get to the login page
@@BlueBearCrypto oic. Noted it thanks. Later I'll try it. 🙏🙏
I’m have a 0.0.0.0 error, mine won’t connect to my network. It freezes. I tried to rest and all but it just won’t connect. Need some help if anyone know how to fix that.
I found when I first started setting it up if I held one of the buttons it would reset the WiFi settings. Have you checked the manual to see if it's that? But if you're resetting it and it's still a problem might be a dud. Make sure you unplug it when you've reset it just to be sure
I thought it died mine just went off not turning on no response just dead. Been running for 7 days😢
That sucks man! Lots of people are saying similar things. It's really disappointing
Hey man i noticed something. My machine and also yours show a grill at backend where u have the magnetic cover. Other unboxing videos for example indiego show no grill there at all. Note warranty seal still intact, could it be that the units themself just overheat due to this extra grill
@@Just9602 ooh you might be onto something there! If they've removed it but not mentioned it then everybody before basically has a miner that runs hotter than it can handle
@@BlueBearCrypto
That is what i am thinking ..since i was already busy with rma my machine i asked the question to canaan to explain why do i have a extra grill amd is this not causing the problem. Just check the indiego youtube you will see the guy removes the magnetic grill no extra grill behind it. Just open. And note whem he flips the box u can see the warranty seal not broken!!!!
I am having the problem that units stops just stops looses pool connection unit goes offline but still consumes full power. Only to get back online is power off and on again. Anybody else having this problem ?
Does the GUI say there are any problems when it disconnects?
@@BlueBearCrypto
Phone app says offline, webbrowser unapproachable but power consumes still like it is hashing. Pool shows miner offline. Its more offline then online. Placed at 2miners now since i want to know how often a day it goes down... Really buggy
@@Just9602 could it be overheating?
@@BlueBearCrypto dont think so tbh have an additional fan upfront. Its says on display its hashing but i cant connect to miner neither by app or webgui and pool reports its dead..so what is it solving that it is still crunching...?
@@Just9602 that's a question a lot of people have. Mine has been offline on the pool and in the gui but hashing at full rate on the display screen. Very odd!
LOL my power supply was DOA
No way!! Not heard that yet!
Try update firmware
There's no firmware update option or download that is newer than what I currently have
WTF means Nano 3 died? As I see you have some problems with sensors, but it's not dead. Dead means it's doesn't turn on. How annoying people which can't lay mind clear.
@@mantassavickas7775 it wasn't hashing/ doing it's job. It's nothing more than a power draining paperweight if its not hashing as it should
Hows the customer support did they get back too you?
Will be posting an update soon but no, they did not reach out after completing the maintenance request form they use on their website
Was it on high mode for 26 days straight?
Yep
@@BlueBearCrypto I wonder if the heat killed it
@@jasonkidwell1767 looks like it. But the room never gets overly hot and it was on the cooler side, so if it is that it seems to die from its own heat
@@BlueBearCrypto that stinks man I'm sry I hope mine doesn't do that I lowered mine down to medium mode just to be safer I guess
@@jasonkidwell1767 yeah I was hoping to raise some awareness so people don't fry theirs!
