What setup for 10.000$ and (very) low power price

[XE14]

Hello everybody,
I’m new on the forum but like many others I’ve been stalking for longer. I searched for similar topics but I found nothing. I assume another topic could already exist as I have to wait 90 seconds between each search. So basically, I would like to set up a smalll mining production. Here are the important infos :


—————————————————————————
Starting capital : 10.000$
Cost of power : between 0.01 and 0.04$/kWh (no error here)
Max power : 15kW
Climate : Oceanic-Western Europe
Location : garage
—————————————————————————

After many searches, my choice is going to T9 as they seem easier to get and for a better price than S9 for the same hash rate, and still profitable as power cost is low and has a smaller impact on charges, and 1 to 2 A4 lintecoin miners to get diversification in case of market variations. The idea is to fit a max. of units to reach the 15kW capacity while optimising profit.

I would much appreciate any feedback; link or presentation of your current configuration.

Agree. So far the T9 has no reports of any issues vs constant chatter about the s9's. Personally, I've not had any serious issues with the s9 and have 11 of them ranging from Batch-1 up to the latest shipped last month. However, many other folks  -- not so lucky with their s9's...

I can personally state the S9s have a 15% failure rate based upon running hundreds of them myself. The T9s I have so far have had zero issues. I would 100% recommend the T9 over the S9.

you may consider A three prong attack:

The t9 from bitmain
about 11.5 th  it uses about 1500 watts that is about 0.00578 btc a day


the avalon 741 from cannan -------  nice gear I have three working very well.

it hashes at 7.4 th and uses about 1175 watts   that is about 0.00367 btc a day


the last leg is 1 gpu rig  using  nvidia 1070 cards.   4 cards  will do about 1800 h for zec  mine at niches and auto convert to btc.  power is around 600 watts for this rig it is earning about 0.008851 btc  for those 600 watts


I would consider mixing my gear up if I were you  since your power cap is 15 kwatts.

I am a lot like you as I have a deal with the owner of a solar array.
power is cheap but  8kwatts in the winter and 12 kwatts in the summer are my max numbers.

Given that you are considering mining LTC, you should look into the Antmain L3+ that came out just today. Granted, it is new, so no history on reliability.

If you want to spend a lot on X11 asics it could also be a good idea, Baikal recently released its cube miner for 700ish dollars, and although it seems to be out of stock right now it could be nice for mining. Doesn't use much electricity so the cost of electricity is negligible even if you pay a dollar a kilowatt.
