Antminer T9 - Why would you purchase one ?

[Dragonizer]

Hi

Just noticed these on Bitmain site and the stats looks terrible compared to a 14Th S9.

T9 - 12.5Th -1576W  +7% 

S9 - 14Th -1350w +10%

Lower hashrate and uses more power ?

Will they be making anymore  14Th S9's ? Or is it the end of them ?

Anyone ?

How about reading the existing T9 thread?
All the reasons are in there and have been given ad-nausea.

I would not be asking if i could find a thread on it !!!

I ALWAYS search first but can not find much details except the one about the S9 and T9 becoming obsolete ?

T9 thread is here  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1755286.0 about 12 lines below this one
And the T9/s9 will NOT become obsolete if segwit is voted in. They will co-exist just fine.
