I have been reading this book since you made the post. This topic is so satisfying. I have come up with a plan to remove my heater from my fish tank and buy this thing:
It's an aquarium thermostat. I can plug two nano 3s into it (about 280 watts, I think, which would be sufficient to heat my tank, considering the house doesn't get too cold in the winter.
Ventilation must be considered.
It does strike me as a little silly, since the miners will only be mining when the thermostat kicks in. Maybe I'll only use the setup in the dead of winter.
The book is inspirational. Hopefully I will come up with better stuff.
I’m sure you will! Maybe there’s a lower power setting you could use to leave them on?
For example, when the outside temps were in the 60s-70s, I would leave my S9s at 600 watts (versus 900) and they would be putting out about 70-degree air.
I have a large fish tank (125 gallons) that needs a heater to keep the water at the proper temperature for the fish (almost always higher than room temperature). I have been wondering how to capture the heat of my little solo miners for this use case.
Another great ad-post for the ~AGORA
They have a few free books over there!
And I just pre-ordered the Braiins Mini Miner - BMM 101 (batch #3)
Congrats! Enjoy.
That one has wifi, right?
yup, and Ethernet.
Nice. I have an earlier version that is Ethernet only
Like it?
I do. It’s very stable and runs well. Price point felt a little high for the hash rate but I still like it
Yeah, I was thinking the same about HR/Price, but then the case and screen are super cool geek shit, am I right?! 🤣
Oh yea, it totally awesome and super geeky lol
Dammit ... just after I vowed to move to a warmer climate ...
(though I think I made the same vow last March after a similar blizzard as well)

Good idea. They have three power settings.

Fantastic find. Thanks
Awesome! Time to charge my Kindle.
Is there a hard copy that I can purchase?
There’s an option to buy the paperback at the link. 🤙
Perfect. Thanks so much.
You’re welcome.
Looks like an intresting topic to be read.
