I live in Canada and we have 0.08 kwh, so an s19j pro is barely (and really isn't) profitable. We heat with wood, which other than my labor, doesn't cost us anything. But we have been running the miner occasionally to heat the basement, as we struggle getting the wood heat down stairs.
Pesky physics of heat rising. I just put out a new video today, too, about Bitmains new firmware where they have a Low Power Mode. It makes the machine run on about 2000 watts and make 82TH. It’s more efficient, more BTC per watt.
now that it's hot outside, the biggest challenge is HEAT. difficult to get the laundry room below 100F. a fan in the window, a fan exhausting air through the 4" laundry duct is not enough. i have to run my M50S at only 100THs to prevent overheating.
Two quick questions: 1. Is it necessary to have the furnace blower running 24/7 if you are doing this? 2. My fuance is in my utility room. If I run two miners in here blowing into my house, will create some kind of weird negative air pressure in the room? PS. I watch all of these videos and love them. Please keep them coming. I would love to see follow-up ones about the pool. I'm going to try it this summer. Heat the house in the winter and pool in the summer!
1. Yes, or at least whenever your miner is running the blower would need to be running, otherwise it will heat up the room it’s in super fast and probably shut itself off. 2. No it won’t create negative pressure; as long as you’re blowing into your return duct, your furnace fan is already pulling the same volume of air. This will not add more pressure into the system, it’ll just add hot air. But the miners have to be facing an air return duct, not just the furnace, so make sure it’s a large vent that’s already sucking in air from your house. When the price dropped so hard with Bitcoin, it became unprofitable at my house due to my high electrical cost so I turned off my miners that were heating the pool. I sure hope we have another bull run this summer and I’ll definitely put that back together and update the progress! It was working wonderfully!! (Though it has to be a stainless steel heat exchanger, not a brazed copper one!)
Ive used an S9 for a bathroom and have just started using an S19J Pro to heat a large portion of our house. In both instances I replaced electric baseboard heaters. An ideal heating source swap. On the S19J pro, I'm wondering if i should disconnect the 3 small power unit fans (i have used the chips to replace the four main ASIC fans). I have a shroud and AC infinity fan splitting air to the power unit, but i couldn't find any info telling me if i should turn those 3 small fans off or not. Thanks for your help!
Great analysis, thank you! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
Bruh impossible! I literally commented under a different video where the guy referenced some which would make my comment make sense! Idk how this comment ended up here 😅 I did watch your video right after
Sorry, another quick question. I’ve been using two dual 15amp breakers and nema 6-15 cables. It looked like you have a different cable/recepticle. Could you tell me what breaker, recepticle and cables you use?
In this particular case I used the water heater breaker and pulled two wires directly off of the wiring that went into my water heater (this was temporary for the demonstration) that have c13 male plugs on the other end. At the warehouse I have two S19s hard wired into one 50amp breaker. I pull a line straight off the breaker and that goes into an L6-30 plug that splits into two L6-30r receptacles. From there I had made my own C13 cables (the ones that plug into the miner itself) Frankensteined into the back half of the L6-30r. It’s kind of a mess, but oversized so that none of the wiring is ever the problem when something goes wrong.
11 Cents per kwh ? Its cost me 37 cent per kwh, and this is still fairly cheap here, due to old contract, new contracts cost 45-60 Cents. *crying in german*
Saving tons of money this year not having to buy propane for the furnaces by heating two homes with crypto mining powered by solar energy.
It’s incredible how effective this is, and doubley so with solar
@@SPACEDESIGNWAREHOUSE Makes the Bear market bearable :) The extra heat also keeps my 3D prints from warping while printing.

ILL TAKE IT!
I am also mining to offset my electric bill. Heating in the nordic winter can be really expensive, especially without a heating pump

One 105th keep my 1300sq ft home at 77f if temp gets to -15c il power up a second unit. I run it on a timer for time of day use.
You can get a temp controller to switch them on automatically on cold nights, but they're usually limited to about 10 amps.

Great Video! This is an easy win!
My electric cost .30$ per Kh.
What adapters do you need to turn a dryer outlet into two 220v outlets? I can't find a way to do this that doesn't seem to be somewhat cowboy-ish.
This one would do it! amzn.to/3C25i79 but I tend to just hard wire everything now to save from getting the wrong plug

What's wrong? I thought you guys were going to power everything with windmills and solar panels. Could it be that that was all a lie? LOL
