Hello everyone!
Just purchased 6 Rx470 Rig, and i am thinking whether should i mine in the room i sleep?
How does electric magnetic field radiation works? My room is close ended, i don't open windows.
The distance within the rig and my bed are around 62 Inch / 1.6 Metre
Next, the rig is just right under my feet where i would usually use my laptop there, is that harmful towards my health or i am okay to go?
Thanks

I used to have two mining rigs in my bedroom in a flat when I started out. Mining isn't any more dangerous than any other computer magnetic radiation-wise. You can google the effects of computer generated EMF. The noise can be annoying for some or even harmful (disturb your sleep) but I didn't mind at all since it was a constant background noise.
I had a window open at all times though.
Just make sure to de-dust them frequently and of course don't plan it to be a permament solution, try to find a place for the rig elsewhere.

try to find a place for the rig elsewhere. might be the only solution left haha Although i can move it to the third floor, but im worry that the temperature there might be hot as the air ventilation seems bad there because the room is small. However, if i could get a oscillator bladeless fan dedicated for the rig, is it okay?

I would think the one of the biggest dangers would be the rig catches fire and you are overcome by smoke asphyxiation before being burned alive in your sleep. If the rig is located elsewhere in your house there is time for the smoke detector to catch it first and wake you up, but a rapidly spreading fire in your bedroom may not even give you that opportunity.
In addition to the fire risk, the constant dry air and heat in your room causing could cause health problems.

Try to use your rig for one week and you understand, what need to place your rig in other place. Dry weather and 24/7 EMF not good for human

Apart from breathing dry air and possible noise influence on your sleep, nothing really harmful ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

If the window is closed wouldn't the heat become a problem also? Ofcs if there is good AC then its ok.

Totally agree with you, the dry air and heat + noise is definitely not something you should get used too.

I put some water container in the bedroom to make the room humid.

Actually it hasn't been established yet whether or not the dust of alt coins is hazardous to your health.

It’s about as dangerous as having a computer on in your room 24/7. Whether it’s dangerous is mostly your own opinion, most reports of radiation from computers are inconclusive and imo the most you’ll be getting is noise and more heat in a room. If it does catch fire you could die from smoke inhalation, though.

If there is no way to put mining rigs elsewhere than you could make a closed box with noise reduction and ventilation.

In the winter no problems. In the summer you will need a humidifier.

Mining isn't any more dangerous than any other computer radiation. The noise can be annoying for some (like my wife ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) ) Small window open at all times. And i have humidifier. Such conditions are quite comfortable

seems that problems with wife is a common problem in all cases! i have a suggestion - leave the wife behind install more rigs in a bedroom, a man can sleep in living room on a couch ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) p.s. just joking!
