Hi! To your bullet points:
  • The most efficient one you can buy. If you want to do some custom work, look into running them directly off DC power to avoid losses.
  • 1 Mining rig can run off a generator, they use around 3kw, depending on the model. So if you want that running all day, 3 * 24 = 72kwh per day.
  • If you are running air cooled, you will have to clean out the miners, they will get very dirty. If you are running immersion, you will have to keep the radiator clean from debris.
  • Try this all on a small scale first and scale up!
I mine and am happy to answer any questions you may have as a follow up
Hi! 🙏 Highly grateful, your post #480613 is really an inspiration. I don't need too much heat here in India though, it's already hot and humid here.

In that case, your main goals should be generation efficiency, noise, and cooling. Immersion would be the best bet for the other two, but if you want to scale up, the oil coolant is very expensive.
There are people that run miners directly from DC voltage which greatly helps with efficiency.
Also, try to find used panels to start. Solar panels are a deflationary technology and will continue to get better with time. I hope to follow your progress!

Thanks for your suggestions. I am indeed searching for used panels. I have to look gor a technician who can give them a start directly with DC, as I am not much aware about hoow to.
I want to ask what's that generation efficiency? Is it about how mch power di the panels generate?
