- This box is able to totally absorb the noise of two Antminer L3+ along with their two power supplies.
In the end, the noise level increases above an average room level by only 15db, which is just the inevitable noise of the air flows. It costs around US$ 630 and it took me roughly 50 hours, single-person, work.

I'll use your idea to build a box for two big miners! Excellent!!! Post more videos please! 😎
So incredibly quiet. Best on youtube.
Great job! I love it. Very inspirational for me.
well done, I wouldnt have the hot air pipes facing the cold air pipes, you will have times when it is sucking the hot exhaust back into the cold side. Have either the hot air or cold air pipes facing another direction.
Great Job!. Thank You.
Very well done mate 👍 😊🌹
Лучший бокс из тех, что я видел! Красавчик 🤙🏼
great project gj
It's Fantastic👌
Nice!!!!
Are you building a FORT or a sound box for two S9’s?????
lol funny
The guy ended up with a fusion reactor 😂 😂
Лайк 👍🏻 за труд, но по моему перебор)))
temperature???
May you built more of these you will get customers because I am also interested of getting one, since you lost the drawings
Muy bueno y todo pero yo la haria de ese tamaño si cuadro 4 minadoras ahi si vale la pena pero es muuucho material y mucha madera para solamente 2!! pero esta muy bueno el diseño
dude if you add a home made ac cooler you would have a badass box I gotta have one
Wowwwww 🤩🤩🤩🤩
The guy ended up with a fusion reactor 😂 😂
all the effort and the inlet and exhaust are seperated by 20mm ply?
I really liked your idea, there is any possibility of giving me the plans to build one in my home, thanks
too bad but I don't have them anymore. I stupidly trash them once done... :(
crazy people did this, when you can just turn down the fan speed
Impressive!! Great work!! How big are the pipes? 4 or 6 inch? Where can I find those pipe connectors to the wall holes on the top of the box? Thx
Try to have the pipes diameter as closest you can to the diameter of the fan of your mining hardware. In this way you avoid any possible shrink or expansion of the air flow. In my case they are 5' inches. You can find them at any home hardware store, along with the connectors. I actually bought the connectors in Europe (during a trip) and the pipes in Canada. It is all good, even if they are not 100% the same size, with the strings you can handle small differences.
Does that thing have its own zip code?
why you didn't put entrance of air to the outside of box? incoming and outgoing air to opposite side, not in front of each other!
have u thought of using a fridge or freezer....could even use a working one to cool the unit while dumping hot air out...sound would be reduced heat control
Good idea, but I strongly doubt a regular fridge or freezer could keep up with the heat generated
I was wondering the same thing just the other day, but learned they would generate too much moisture/humidity.
what is the insulation that you use?
Can you give some dimensioning info?
good video, how about the temperatures inside your room, and miner temps?
The miners have: PCB temperature between 48 and 53 °C and Chip temperature between 57 and 61 °C. So far it has been 6 months of ongoing mining without any issue. About the room, I am in Canada thus during the winter/fall it is awesome cuz it helps a bit to warm up the unit. During summer I move the box (it has wheels) close to a window and I apply 2 simple aluminium pipes (6') that go from the 2 hot-air holes to the window. For that I cut off a wood plate that fits into the window and holds the 2 pipes. The middle hot-air hole (air from the power suppliers) is insignificant.
@@miningdreamer9031 I did the same thing with cooler but not with insulation.
Can you tell me all the equipment and such, I want to do that exactly,
@@NixonRexzile-xz4sq the wood is the cheepest 1/2 inch wood sheets you can find. The thin black noise reflecting insulation sheets are the: "Pyle Sound Deadening material", I found them on amazon. The sound absorption insulation (thick gray one) is the "Rockwool safe'n'sound 16'inches" (home depo). About the internal pipes, the grey ones, I can't recover the exact name but basically you need flexible pipes of the same diameter of the fans (or a little bigger) able to handle the temperature of the miner's airflow. Their mission is just to carry out air, handling the high heat, forget about "sound dumping pipes". Then, because the rockwool tend to defiber on the hedges, you need a lot of paper tape to protect the perimeters of your cuts. that is the yellow tape you see around everything in the video. Also, use a lot of tape for the internal "mining room". you don't want any fiber to fly there into the miners somehow. Put bigger wheels underneath. I undersized them and a couple broke after some movements. All the other pieces are just plastic connector and stuffs common in any plumber store. hope this can help ;)
Two questions: Are all of these materials ignifuge?. Terrible issue. I suggest use Teflon TM un case of firme doesn't emit toxic Air and metal cases ( I know that transmit noise ). Second question: have you any temperature alarma in order avoid device issues?
What is the temperature of your room after one day?
Too much space just for 2 miners
Yea. Unfortunately that space is the cost for a serious sound damping.
I was going to say that as well.
@@miningdreamer9031 a duct fan would have done it aswell wit just a blanket raped around it worked for me
You could do most of this with $50 of igloo coolers, and some sound absorption foam squares, and ducting to force air into and exhaust them. Over engineered I'm afraid; it would be almost as effective and take 10% of the effort friend.
Why don't u try that and get back to us.
you don't even understand how sound "absorption" foam squares work. The sound doesn't just disappear
Great option👍🏾 Are you selling your plans? If so, how much?
I would give them for free (the more people mine, the better it is even for my holdings :D), but unfortunately I don't have the drawings anymore... too bad I know...
Are you still making this kind of thing for antminers today?
This is a nuclear hideout
First of all, you should pay attention to the temperature of hash boards. Second, the hot air inside the box must be released. This method is obsolete. I silenced the miners with the new method and put them in my room, you can put them in the garage without any horrible noise! Watch my last video(Whatsminer M20s) and other videos.
What are your temps with such custom soundproof box ?
PCB temperatures are between 47° and 53°, Chips temperatures are between 56° and 60°
you mean we dont need any air conditioner?
The things we use to do when mining was profitable!
Im a student. I live in a place where i dont need to pay for electricity due to that. I have 2 of the Antminer S9 and making about 100$ per month.
Zalon Z Do you go to school in the US? I’m trying to do the same thing but will have to use a VPN and be really quiet because mining isn’t allowed at mine
IF I were a student sure I’d still do it with free electric and those miners are only $70 these days!
Photoshop Tutor I just have to be really sneaky about it without pissing off my college and my roommate 😂 I’m going to figure something out
Good luck they are loud as hell!
Are you local to east coast USA? Didn't know if you didn't mine anymore if you'd be open to selling the box (if you mine assuming it's something besides a L3+ now, although make sure you use BlissZ firmware).
I am from southern Ontario, and I can sell the box once I don't use it anymore. Now everything is up and running thus it is not an option nowadays. I don't quite get what you wrote in the brackets, can you please explain it better? thanks
What does a mining box do what is it used for besides making air flow quite ? what is the miners purpose?
@@troymcdonald9795 they mine gold and silver. Not iron. Sometimes copper. Never plastic. Usually oil slabs
Thanks for your suggest but could you plz say me what this the model of your miner??
The 2 miners are the same, and they are the Antminer L3+ (the "old" litecoin miner)
@@miningdreamer9031 do you check the temperature of your box after install all device and run your miner??How much was that??
Not sure what you mean, but the external temperature of the box is the normal room temperature. I mean it is like any other thing in the room.
If you are talking about the internal temperature inside the box it depends.
Into the central room, where the miners are, the temperature is probably a little bit higher but not due to miners but because of the power suppliers. Anyway when I opened it for checking a couple of times during the last year, I didn't feel any high temperature. Don't know the exact number tho.
If you are talking about the inside temperature of the "outgoing hot air" room, I have no idea because that are "sealed". Again by touching the external wall I don't feel any heat but for sure inside the internal pipes the temperature must be high because of the hot air coming from the miners. Btw the internal pipes are made to handle much higher temperature so that is not a problem. Also the sound insulation there around can handle it being also fire proof, so... Again I don't know the exact temperature inside there but it is not an issue whatever it is.
Hope this can help!
@@miningdreamer9031 I asked you about the internal temperature of your box.
Ok Got it
Thank for your explain!
I need a box built for 8 miners. Is there a Sketch file of your plan I can possibly buy?
I would be more than happy to share my plans, but unfortunately I don't have them anymore. My bad, I should have kept them :(
wow xD
All that for just two miners 😅
Respect for the engineering and work... but the wife acceptance factor on something like that is zero...
You can always use your veto right
good but to big
So making the box costs as much as the 2 miners and their power supplies combined...
nice, sound proof, but a box that size is not wife proof
Ciao sei italiano vero?? Sarebbe carino se facessi una guida in italiano.. grazie ciao
I sottotitoli hanno un'opzione di traduzione automatica sul video - potrebbe provare questo e vedere se si tradurrà in italiano. Stammi bene.
I think it would be an easier and better idea to throw all the miners into one room and soundproof the walls so you can't hear it from other areas of the house
yes absolutely. If you have a spear room... :)
are u still mining ???
i hope u r :))
You are forcing the fans to work a lot harder
And Errrrr
wtf?!!! it for 2 miners this konstruction, you mad
Again, happy to see other solutions, but the final outcome must be something that allow 2 miners to run in the same room where you live, without noise problem at all.
@@miningdreamer9031 BUT if you homeowner with plenty spare rooms it no problem for you))) good luck to you)
wtf is this? its so big.
lol temperatures asic 120C you very crazy haaaaaaa
PCB temperatures are between 48 and 53 °C and Chip's temperatures are between 57 and 61 °C. Running from April 2017 at full rate with not a single issue. I have no idea where your 120 °C comes from.
I think he saw the numbers for MH/s which were in the 120s. Nice work, I need to do this for myself.
This is overkill i think...those poor miners will melt
dont think you are clearly not very good at it
Maybe ok for a few weeks long time there dead
@@ddk4664 my only concern is that those tubes are not smooth enough
@@mikkihintikka7273 i put one tiny bend in my extraction and the fans went nuts 🤣
