MINE ON WITH PPLNS

LOL

What diameter is your "piping"? That makes a big difference, but think about this. Most ASICS moves 200+ cubic feet of air per minute, how many cubic feet is that freezer? Fridges and freezers were never designed to instantly cool air. It takes them a while. A fridge or freezer will never, ever, keep up. Even if by some physics miracle you found one that could you have to pay the electric costs of cooling that air.

THE_BIGGEST_SINGLE_THING_IS_TO_KEEP_ASICS_FROM_INGESTING_THEIR_OWN_EXHAUST. People try to get clever and ignore that simple truth, you cannot.

The beauty of PPLNS!

BAM BLOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just thought I'd pop in and say at the moment we are 231 PHs so if you were worried about ramp now's yer time to join!

Those miners move too much air, all you'd be doing is restricting the intake side. The freezer could not cool the air fast enough as the miners ingest it. Also, who ever said a freezer is soundproof? When's the last time you put something noisy in there?

And yes, that's a possible Dexter question

Not criticizing here, but why in the world would you use Skype instead of the official Innosilicon website?

Where is this hosting facility? I've been looking to host overseas to avoid Trumpf tax.

Just go to

Same! Did not know about these!

I wonder what the relationship of the two resellers is? On the Pangolin site if you hover over the Facebook icon the link is https://www.facebook.com/whatsminer/   and the Pangolin tag on the FB page is @whatsminer.

Welcome back, mine on!

I'd like to discuss the Pros and Cons of Pangolin's hosting service, I think this is the right section.

https://pangolinminer.com/hosting-plan/

Pros:

• For US customers no tariff
• No setup fee if you buy the gear from them
• $0.06 kw/hr hosting cost
• Shipping from Pangolin to facility is $13.00 per miner
• The equipment is yours
• Basic fees, like hands on *seems* to be cheap
• You can host gear bought elsewhere, but I do not know fees. This could be a Con
• Pangolin is a known entity

Cons:

• No remote access! A big one for most
• No real monitoring and subject to staff availability if issues arise
• MOQ to host is 4
• Lead time is still a ways out

I'd rather host the miners myself, but with the large Trump tax this makes a lot of sense. What keeps me from pulling the trigger is the long lead time mainly and then the lack of remote access.

Thoughts? Any Pros Cons to add?

That's funny, I finally found a cheap enough PSU to turn on my S7. Figure I'll play the lottery for a while too

On edit: Even though the odds are crazy high and I have set Awesome Miner to alert me I still feel compelled to stare at the miner interface to see if it found a block. I need meds...

Do the S9s come with PSU?

Congrats and thank you!

Also these rewards are AWESOME!

4 blocks in 4 days, thank you lady luck!

Looking at my PDU's voltage stats for the past year my min is 225, max of 244, and avg of 236.6 volts. So I guess I need to wait if I were to pick up an S1x miner?

I'd rather have people on the Internet who give advice err on the side of caution rather than say "dude you are so smart, go for it". I want to see this magical S15 that you can sleep by. Either you're used to sleeping with a hair dryer running on your nightstand or you've made the equivalent of the 400MPG car...

Anyway, if you're just in it for the fun get an older Avalon and downclock it.

How do coupons affect the de minimis? With BM releasing a slew of coupons it puts the S15 at $680.00 after a $340 coupon.
