Step-by-Step Installation and Setup for LuckyMiner LV08
1. Preparing the ASIC Miner
Start by unboxing the LuckyMiner LV08 and placing it in a well-ventilated space. Plug in the power adapter (5V 6A). Once powered, the onboard screen will light up and display the Wi-Fi SSID: “Lucky-XXXX” — this is the miner’s temporary access point.
2. Connecting to the LV08 Wi-Fi Access Point
Using your phone or computer, connect to the miner’s Wi-Fi signal: Lucky-XXXX (no password required).
Once connected, your device will automatically redirect to the miner’s configuration page via captive portal.
3. Configuring Network Connectivity
On the setup page:
- Choose your home Wi-Fi network (2.4GHz only — 5GHz is not supported).
- Enter your Wi-Fi password and click Save.
- A confirmation message “Save successful” will appear, and the miner will attempt to connect to your network.
4. Configuring the Solo Mining Pool
After network setup, you’ll access the miner’s control panel through your local network.
Here’s how to configure SOLO mining:
- Input your SOLO mining pool URL and port (e.g.,
stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333). - Use your Bitcoin wallet address as the worker name.
- The backup pool section is preconfigured and doesn’t require editing.
Note: The LuckyMiner LV08 is not designed for traditional pooled mining — SOLO mode only.
5. Adjusting Miner Performance Settings
To optimize performance:
- Set the frequency to
575MHz - Set the core voltage to
1300mV
Click Save, then hit Reboot to apply the changes. Once rebooted, the miner will begin hashing automatically.
6. Monitoring the Mining Status
After reboot, the screen will display real-time metrics:
- Hashrate (typically around 4.5 TH/s)
- Temperature
- Uptime
You can also log in via browser using the miner’s local IP to check stats, uptime, logs, and mining status from the dashboard.
7. Receiving Rewards and Withdrawing BTC
If you successfully mine a block, the full block reward (currently 3.12 BTC) will be sent directly to the wallet address linked to your SOLO pool setup. There are no third-party fees or split rewards — all or nothing.
