In this article I explain WHY you should wait on buying it, and also, I did a TON of math to prove why you should wait. All of my work is here, and is accurate, feel free to double check yourself:

That is a pretty long time to get ROI, but now, lets see what happen when Bitcoin is valued at $180.

Per Day:
At $0.05 kW/h = $4.20
At $0.08 kW/h = $6.72
At $0.12 kW/h = $10.08
Per Month
At $0.05 kW/h = $130.2
At $0.08 kW/h = $208.32
At $0.12 kW/h = $312.48
Now, lets look at revenue, mining in a pool:
Per Day: $13.40 (0.0744 BTC)
Per Month: $407.81 (2.266 BTC)
Time to add these together to look at your profits:
Per Day ($0.05 kW/h): $13.40 – $4.20 = $9.20 – Profit
Per Day ($0.08 kW/h): $13.40 – $6.72 = $6.68 – Profit
Per Day ($0.12 kW/h): $13.40- $10.08 = $3.32 – Profit
———————————————————————-
Per Month ($0.05 kW/h): $407.81 – $130.2 = $277.61 – Profit
Per Month ($0.08 kW/h): $407.81 – $208.32 = $199.49- Profit
Per Month ($0.12 kW/h): $407.81 – $312.48 = $95.33- Profit
Let’s not forget to add in the cost of the power supplies = $465
—————————————————————————————-
Total Price Of Equipment = $2,815 USD
Price To Pay Off Equipment And Be In Green:
At $0.05 kW/h = 10 Months, 1 Week
At $0.08 kW/h = 1 Year, 2 Months
At $0.12 kW/h = 2 Years, 5 Months
