This thread is to unite free power  people with old gear people.

 I am making an effort to join old gear owners  with free power miners.

Free power really low cost power-------- good.
Old useless gear----------- good



USA  for now.   I can be escrow. do not have to be escrow.

Lets see if I can make a few matches for those with  and s-1 or a cube or what ever.

Some people have 1kwatt of 'free power'   may want an s-3 or an s-1.



At mods it is strictly an old  mining gear for sale thread to those with free or cheap power.  Seems like a good idea.   I don't mind helping people get the match they need.

space saver.


If you have free power put your name and how much power.

If you have old gear put your name and what gear.

If you need escrow I will do it.

 If  you  don't need escrow still good.

I am only trying to match odd socks so to speak.



This could be a sticky thread of some kind.

This is a good idea, unfortunately I don't have anything to contribute.

I have a few Antminer S3's and an S1, as well as 2 Antminer C1 watercooled units.

How does this work?

 The concept would be to match you with someone with really cheap power.

To sell my miners to, or rent power, etc?

yeah  you are just under 10 cents a kwatt.

so your less efficient miners can't run for you.

i see many guys post i have free power what can I do.

your c-1 would be good for a free power guy that needs a quiet miner.

the goal would be the two of your cut a deal via pm's you need an escrow i would do it.  you are close by each other you do not need an escrow that works too.

Hello,

I have free power as I live in an extended stay hotel. Will I be eligible to receive gear? And I do live in the US too.

Thanks,

i have free power, but dont have a miner and dont reside in the states.

I have both free power and old gear.  I live in the USA.

I have one asicminer tube with controller. Looking for someone to provide a home for it

I have 3kw of free power based in the uk if anyone is interested in coming to a deal

PM'd u

I have 12 underclocked  S1's.  They do about 100Gh each and use around 100-110W.

If i can find someone with around 5KW of free power I have a deal for you.

Where are you based i have 3 but could accommodate if needed.

Milwaukee, WI

You?

I have 5KW+ available.

good i am here for escrow if needed if not just cut deals via pm

Maybe we can expand to some other countries idea is to see if we get it going in the USA.

I can do escrow in USA pretty easy.

What country are you?

So how does this work? How do you make sure neither party is screwed?

I have lots of gear I just put up for sale actually, but if I can find a cheap enough and trustable 'colo' I'd rather use them to make more $$. LOL

You can sell your gear here to a guy with free power. Phil will/can do the escrow so no one gets pegged.
You can also deal with the free power people to run your gear for you .. for a price.

Sky (imagination) is the limit.

yeah it is more of a contact thread.

  you have an
 s-3
 s-1
 c-1
 r-box

they work list them here


you have free power or low cost power list here.

pm each other and try to make a deal.   if you need me to escrow at 1% fine if you want to deal the deal without escrow fine.

We have people with idle gear all over the usa.  and there have been low power people asking what they can do with it.

This thread is a place to match up. 

I have free power here.  ;D I live in the states in NH if any one is interested.

OK.

I have:
8x SP20e's
2x Antminer S5's
2x Antminer C1's (Ultra quiet, watercooled)

 :)

If you have free electricity and you live in an apartment you should consider getting a KNC Jupiter. Those are silent power hogs.

SP20, S5, S3 will drive you nuts if you sleep in the same room.

The SP20s are actually manageable underclocked at 900Gh/430watts, setting 3 on fan in a 70f ambient office.

Yes but aren't those loud? Even when underclocked and undervolted?

Yeah that's why u adjust the fans at lower speeds. Gets down to below s3 normal sounds.

If you want something almost dead silent I highly recommend the Avalon 4. You can run it underclocked to aroung 800 GH/s per unit (1.2 TH/s max) in room temperature and the fans are on par with PSU fans, it's insane how silent they are. Bonus is that they really don't create much heat either and you get down to 0.5 W/gh power consumption.

Problem is finding these at a good price point. Ordering straight from ehash.com they are too high.

I have one running I thankfully bought from philipma1957, and wish I could find 2 more @ a good price.

i have free power.

For those who do have "free" power.....may I suggest that you list what State you are in...OR if you prefer you could even suggest instead what region of the country you are in, New England, Mid-Atlantic, Deep South, etc.

Thanks.

a great idea!

USA South.  I have rooms for miners that are sound proofed from the rest of the house.  I am just trying to figure out how much room I got.

do you have a limit on the amount of power you have available to you either from the power company OR in terms of your breaker-box?

Of course I have limits.  I wish I had unlimited lol.  The power company has upgraded my feeds and given me my own upgraded transformer on the pole though.

I will let everyone know when I figure out what i have left after I finishing setting up my own equipment.

I have 8 S1 to sell. All of them have been undervolted with pencil mod. It averages 120~130 GHs with 120~140W. Let me know if you are interested.

I posted a few times back So I figured I would update to show more information.

I have free power unlimited to a extent. Since I am just getting into mining, I really don't know much about the hardware.  I started out with USB sticks ran those till I had enough to get a grid seed. Used those profits and moved up to a s1 and now looking to move up again.

I live in NH or as a region the New England area. Sound doesn't really bother me and if it gets to loud I can always move to another location I have free power at. I know I am not making much off the S1 but at free power = free money any way I look at it. I think My biggest draw back would be the power the power supply powering the unit, not knowing enough about the hardware I do not  know which power supply to buy for the unit I want to use.

I was running a atx 750 for my dual S1 and it ran great until my old power supply apparently cant handle the dual s1 at over clocked it shut off right as the miner starts mining now. So I disconnect one board and it would just find ad the second and it will shut off after I reboot the miner.

So as for power supplies should I but a new ATX 1000 watts for the equipment I am looking to purchase or purchase a HP or dell sever power supply for cheaper? I am looking to purchase a s3 if the price is right. Or unless some one else wants to make a deal of some sorts.

Feel free to PM or post here for any questions and or suggests for me..

Thanks for reading,

A Dell Z750P can power 2x S3's without fail. They are amazing power supplies for the price.
I could sell you two S3's and a powersupply/bboard/cables, ready to hook up and mine with for $240+Shipping.
Let me know.

I have free power and im located in canada if anyone is interested hit me up. Not sure how to get miners up and running but open to help.

If you are running the S1 at cool temperature, it's ok but if it is in room temperature, it gets little bit loud, it will get worse with increase temperature. Keep in mind that it does generate tons of heat so prepare for that. All the problems goes away when it's undervolted. You will have virtually no noise, heat and most importantly less power usage (for you it doesn't matter since you have free power) but downside is the hashing power will decrease around 60 to 80GHs.

free power in Egypt . ;)

sending PM tonight.

replied to you and hopefully answered all your questions.

Free power for anyone near UK, due to all college room prices being paid for by college. I used to move with a S1 here but recently sold it off.

sent another PM to you.

I am looking to pick up something between 10-30Th worth of gear, preferably SHA256 but depending on price I would consider something in the scrypt realm.  Power is of no consequence to me, price per TH and completness of the package are paramount.  Open to all offers, big and small.

Free power in NC.

I have 2 modded S1's (S3's) and 2 S3's (maybe S3+?) both with 1000W PSU to power each set of 2.

What can we work out here?

If you just need a place to set them and have them run for a while I could do that for about a month?

I have 2 x Terraminer IV in Washington State.

I'm looking for Scrypt gear right now. I'm in Texas, United States.

i have 2 S1 (1 full board and 1 half board) no PSU and 6 Gaw Fury + 5 PSU + USB cables. PM me should anyone interested in deal

We have full free electricity, Southern US.

PM us or let us know what anyone would like to work out.

I sent you a PM but it flagged me as a NEWBIE, which I am to this forum but not to mining!

Got it. Let me know what you have in mind.


If anyone else is interested shoot us a PM

Free Power in Denmark.
Up to 1.5 Kilowatt.

free power in Portland OR area (work in IT with a server room)

you might be close enough to me in Portland.  LMK

Let you know what? I am in the middle of listing them on eBay right now. $249 each plus shipping. I would be glad to make a deal for both if you are interested. Just PM me. Thanks!

Would be nice to see if anyone has free power located in UK and look to doing some deal or so for equipment and split profits for equipment and agreement that is legal binding etc.

how much can you handle? I would like to workout a deal where we split profits.

PM Sent.

replied :)

Huge thank you to you guys for waking me up! I took my Terraminers offline last Fall and figured they were simply worthless. I had no idea there are places around the country with free power.

My miners are now sold via ebay and on their way to a new home!

glad it worked out for you ! :)

Someone may have brought this up already (didn't read every post) but keep in mind that people with free power in hotels or apartments may run into circuit overload.

Likely not a problem with older miners, but S4s @ 1400W kill breakers when they stack up.

Very true people need to consider this. Also by a standard most houses in america run a 100 amp service. Thats only 12k watts at 120.

Yes. When I ran my TerraMiners I had a 20A circuit for each PSU. And I purchased heavy gauge cords. The ones that were shipped with them were the lowest end crap and they were nearly melting.

I HAVE FREE POWER IN UK HAVE AROUND 10KW SPARE AT THE MOMENT THROUGH A DEAL I HAVE DONE FOR A YEAR

Hi there,

I'm new user but I've had some mining experience back in the GPU times. I am interested in doing that again since I've got free power access but no equipment except some old Radeons that are out of the game now :/

I'm currently living in Germany, so if any EU guys with some used ASICS wanna get rid of them for few bucks let me know :)

oh and the grid could possibly stand something powerhungry like a S3/S4 but I have limited space and only one room to spare for the the noise/heat so I won't go bulk

Buyer got cold feet and refused the shipment. So I am re-listing 2 x Terraminers on eBay. If anyone on this board is interested, send me a message. Thanks!

Lots of ppl here do that a lot where they back out in last minute, it's frustrating
