sadly so far it is very hard to actually charge batteries.  

You can find cheap regulators :
http://www.ev-power.eu/Solar-GridFree/Solar-PWM-Regulator-12-24-V-10A-Input-30V-50V-LS1024E.html?cur=1

I think you are vastly overestimating what Power you will get from a solar panel.

It's all about how much and where you invest off course , but even this old article shows how much potential solar power has :
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michael-graham-richard/can-we-power-the-whole-wo_b_104355.html


We could have "free" global solar energy
If you google Gobi desert + solar energy you see the Chinese understand that:
https://www.hongkongfp.com/2015/07/13/nasa-images-highlight-the-stunning-growth-of-solar-farms-in-china/


You could pump some water in a high ground reserve and when you need power, use the gravity and water to power hydroturbine!  Grin

I laughed. Yeesssss of course.... A kinetic battery, why not?

Let me just pump 10 pool worth of water over my head, to last the night on my S5 Tongue

Not so crazy : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_storage#Renewable_energy_storage

Thank you all for contribution

I would like to do something like this it would save a lot of money. don't have a miner but like to get one

As expected some competition results in further price drop

Hi!

The delayed mining payouts for 21.07.2015 were processed just a few minutes ago.

Best Regards

Still nothing

Didn't receive mining payouts at 21/07/2015 , anyone else having same problem ?

So let me get this right.

You are saying we can purchase Hashnest S5's from Bitmain directly and pay via Credit Card and have it hosted on Hashnest?
That was possible ages ago, I assume they just missed deleting it from the website

Thanks reply , so no new option , to bad
8  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: HASHNEST Discussion and Support Thread on: July 20, 2015, 07:21:36 PM

What are you talking about?  Please give a better description of what your asking.


Are you referencing the pay with USD? I don't see that option from the hashnest interface. Last I asked them, they said they are only taking BTC now; but maybe that changed?

I do see the USD option for purchasing the hardware (not cloud mining), but I believe they've always accepted USD via that route (although before it was through a third party CC processor).

I provided link to it , it's bitmaintech that offers exclusive cloudhash for hashnest payment in USD or BTC

I tried the link but it says "Up Coming" and won't let me add it to cart. Did it work differently for you?

I see this

Just printscreen fair use

Depending on location if you have a decent amount of property you could build a solar farm, this is the only way to even try and future proof your location. You buy property, put solar power on it and host, use the hosting money to help build up against the invested amount while also using half to buy your own miners.

So you take container oil cooled filled with miners x funds you have or want to spend

Add this

And a bit of this

Wouldn't it be more profitable to mine then?

If we speculate anyway why not underground for location , Sahara , dunno how much it cost mē but can't be a lot , enough sunshine and temperature variation to generate electricity , at first glance the only big problem would be a stable internet connection.

Anyone has free satellite ?

About innovation why nobody mentions oil cooled setups ?

About power cost if you invest part in power storage you can reduce cost maybe by only mining on NON-peak power , this without any renewable energy source connected

The power storage in my home project : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1071741 is only one of the power storage options as you can read in topic.

Just wanted to share and keep you interested.
15  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: SolarTeslaMiner on: July 02, 2015, 08:06:35 PM
Good luck with this idea. I think you need to figure out a lower price for the battery for it to be good.

Thank you and indeed price is still bit high.

The growing intrest and markt will hopefully lower price in near futher.

New security update with phone number doesn't help apparently
Hack

Finally hacker got what he want

All these "random" events

I'm not right up on power pricing & structure in your area but here's an idea to try maximise ur power & save money..

First i dont know how long it takes to fill a telsa battery so please take that into consideration.

Do u have on peak or off peak power available to u?

U could buy enough battery packs to charge using grid power in off peak times so that u could run them all the time & even mix them up with some solar panels to reduce that cost

Only want 1 battery cause 7kWh battery should be enough for house consumption.

Two prices
annual (euro): 92,92
Price kWh peak (euro-cent kWh): 11,54
Price per kWh off peak (euro-cent kWh): 5,25

Only night
Price kWh (euro-cent kWh): 4,45

Setup:
At night => battery loads and miners run on 0.0445 €/kWh
At day   => miners run on battery + solar panels 0.0445 €/kWh or less

I asked for more specifications on battery but no reply yet.

Yes indeed you could couple more battery's

Thank you for your comment

Just wanted to share my link and gather some helpfull information if possible

http://mouseion.weebly.com/


The return on investment (ROI) date given on your site may be a little optimistic.  You have assumed there will always be 25 bitcoin per block, ignoring the halving mid next year to 12.5 Bitcoin per block. 

Your ROI breakeven, at $240 per Bitcoin, may be closer to 900 days rather than 615 days.

This halving is ignored by a number of the ROI calculators.  At least with the coinwarz calculator you can experiment with the number of Bitcoins per block.


Yes you're right , it's optimistic, not full worked out plan , still need to calculate electricity , inverter, psu, cooling system and anything I forgot.
As stated on site "can vary greatly".
http://bitcoinclock.com/
For what I understand from it, it also means BTC price should go up considerable, being an optimist ofc Cheesy
