BITCOIN MINING SITE

[Okawari]

Hi there. I am going to make a site where I will mine Bitcoins. 100% of the electricity will come from solar panels. The place where the mining hardware will be put is large enough, about 1000sqM.

My question is which are the best hardware miners right now on the market, except SP50 since Spoondolies does't respond to emails? Also please provide the websites of where I can buy these miners.

Thanks,
Okw

well, if u dont know that ... i doubt u even know how to set up a miner ... u should do your own homework buddy ...

[klondike_bar]

so you plan to power miners for only about 8hrs/day?

that assumes no sunlight at night
that assumes some days are too cloudy to produce more than 50% capacity

You dont seem to have planned this out very much at all, and will lose money due to down-time and possibly damaging your power supplies when clouds roll in and your voltage/amperage falls below the equipment requirements.

Am always amused by these posts, hardly a Day goes by without someone new popping up who is going to set up a large mining operation usually asking very basic questions completely at odds with the size of the investment needed. 

OP as has been said, what about Night Time & Overcast Days, or do you plan on an enormous battery bank?

Well Im planing to buy more S7s and right now Im hashing about 10Ths btw.

Not only about 8hrs/day. I was wrong saying that only from solar panels because there is a river where Im planing to make the site and Ill invest in batteries too. Right know Im just asking for some advice about which is the best miner at the market right know, about the plan about how the site will work its something else so I just want to know where and which are the best miners at the market.

So if I am reading this right this is now going to be a Solar Powered + Hydro Electric Powered with a Battery Bank Farm? Now that sounds like a lot of work and yet you are asking about Miners?

Anyway on the Miner front at the moment you only have a choice of S7 or Avalon6, come the New Year there may be the BW.com B-Eleven.

Are you running your 10TH of S7 on Solar at the moment?

Yes you're right! Right now I have three S7s and they are running on solar and hydropower which's power is stored on batteries for night time. I live far from urban area and here is the right place to expand my site. I have solar panels which are on a 150sqF area and hyrdropower from the heavy river.

where are you in europe or usa?

[papadrams]

I wish you best of luck..Antminer s7 batch 8 looks pretty good for the money..
Northern europe or south?? You should consider some cooling units if you are planning on getting lots of minners..

So the Solar + Hydro with Battery Storage is up and running? How much Solar &  Hydro Power can you generate?

Perhaps he will cool with water and with the boilling water he will run engines to produce electricity?

[chek2fire]

in europe there is one legit seller and i think he is official reseller of bitmain. You can contact him

hahahahahaha Its all about green power!!!

Right now I'm generating around 5kWp with solar and about 1kWp with hyrdo.

Thanks! - South Europe. Im going to cool the hardware with flowing water, this water will be used to warm my house and the warm air will be used to warm the greenhouse which my brother will manage, that's how I wrote on the project paper .

Im a "she". Please see above for the answer.

Thanks chekfire, but S7 B8 is cheaper on bitmain.com, about 800$ including shipping and customs charges.

[vortexz]

What ? S7 is 800 $ ?
Where did you come with that number ?

[papadrams]

800$ cheaper than http://asicminer-shop.de/.. Not 800$ to buy it. 

[Okawari]

What ? S7 is 800 $ ?

800$ cheaper!

[vortexz]

ah, I got it now
Sorry for the confusion

[RichBC]

800$ cheaper!

http://asicminer-shop.de/ does seem expensive, he must have ordered some Batch 8 before the recent reduction?  $800 can go quite quickly in VAT, Shipping, Handling Charges etc. Have you allowed for that?

Rich

Well I have calculated it. Including shipping and VAT fee is about 800$ cheaper if I buy at Bitmain.
