It has been a good learning experience.
The advantages of going bigger are more sats and more heat output.
Heatbit is a space heater and air purifier. If you can use either of those things, the Heatbit is a pretty good value, because it also earns a lot of sats.
heat in bulgarian summers is like 40+ degrees (104+ degrees Fahrenheit) so im good for heat, you can never have enough sats tho!
i do like the idea of an air purifier that also generates sats though

You can't decouple the heat from the sats.
The point of Heatbit is to make productive use of otherwise costly aspects of mining. Mining generates lots of waste heat, but if you need heating anyway, then you can use a miner as a space heater. The components of the miner need to be protected from dust and fans are needed to remove the heat, so putting the miner inside an air purifier makes sense.
Does it get cold enough in the winter that you need heating? That's what I was going to use it for.

it typically will get down to minus , but we have central heating that works off our log burner so heat isn't a big one. i do like the concept though
