Title: [Wanted] Old miners collectiong dust Post by: Cranky4u on May 08, 2017, 11:54:20 PM Please consider supporting crytpocurrency security with active distributed hashing, not consolidated into a handful of big miners / pools. If you have any old ASIC miners of any type that are currently door stoppers / dust collectors, please consider donating the items to an Aussie for strengthening the networks.
I am an electrical engineer that is putting some of my crypto into a modest stand alone solar / wind system using salvaged parts; 1. ~480W of solar panel 2. MPPT regulator 3. 2 car batteries 4. 3 UPS 5. 10 year old motherboard with AMD dual core processor 6. 30GHs R-Box (SHA-256) consumes 30W 7. 5GHs Butterfly labs consumes 30W With this set up, I can establish some stand-alone ASIC miners to help strengthen the networks. I am on the look out for: 1. Old ASIC miners of any type I have some spoondoolies to cover shipping costs....

Power compaitability is not an issue as the S3 wants 12VDC. Gerat thing about most small miners, they take 12VDC so I can basically slap them straight onto the storage batteries (small bateery controller in-between connects/disconnects the supply when the batteries get low). If your S3 is collecting dust and you are willing to donate it, PM me and we could work out shipping.

I also wasn't aware R-Boxes came in 30Mh varieties, pretty sure that's 30GH/30W.
