Title: whats the cut off to business miners and home miners Post by: DigitalPirateman on October 02, 2014, 02:32:42 PM I can't decide whats the best cut off to home miners and business some say 10TH is but i think its more like 25TH with this new difficulty we are getting more miners soon. whats the cut off between the average starter to the more advance rigs.

The cut off isn't in TH/s it's in kW/H and how many kW a house can support. The electricians in this forum could probably get into specifics for you, but that's the right question you should be asking. "How many amps and how many kW can my circuit support?" Businesses, warehouses, and datacenters obviously have higher power threshold, so you can think more in tens of TH/s, but for home it's strictly how much your circuit can handle.

100A = 24000w 150A = 36000w 200A = 48000w You obviously need to leave headroom, plus remove 20% for continuous load. You could have doubled your output if you had wired your rigs to use 240v instead of 120v.

Of course you can add more breakers. But that is just an additional expense that makes your bad investment into a god-awful investment. If you don't already have existing miners in your home and plan to buy new gear, you will lose money, guaranteed, if you don't have the cheapest power on the planet. So why would anyone add new circuits now?

What's that have to do with your original question... or anything else you brought up in this thread? |
