Buy Antminer Z9 ?

[Master85]

Hello,
I've been thinking about buying Antminer for a while longer.
After my piggy bank now gives a little more, the question arises again and again what kind of model?
I've spent hours in Ebay, but I'm not conclusive what a model.

What do you think of the Z9? And the Z9 mini? What exactly is the difference?

I have saved a few offers and I have come to the decision that it in the direction:
https://www.ebay.de/itm/401570976339 something should be

Can you recommend the model, or rather something else?

Edit: I keep a mini in my eye, what's the difference between the normal Z9 and the Z9Mini? Unfortunately, there are very few in the net. I did not make it out ?? https://www.ebay.de/itm/401570983594

I assume that you are ignoring other things such as ASICs miner risk, flexibility and so on. I was on almost the same thread before, when someone has a plan to buy some ASICs miner, and almost all of the reply said that was not a good idea (including me of course)

Then lets comparing between Antminer Z9 and Z9 mini.

	Products	|	Price	|	Hashrate	|	Power Usage	|	Power Efficiency (Hashrate/Power Usage)
	Z9	|	$3319 (as shown at shop.bitmain.com)	|	40.8k Sol/s ± 5%	|	1150W± 10%	|	35 sol/s per W
	Z9 Mini	|	$850 (as shown at shop.bitmain.com)	|	10.0k Sol/s±5%]	|	300W	|	33 sol/s per W

I think that's enough for comparing both, and decisions are yours.

Anyone know of any new Equahash ASICs being devloped?  I can't find anything more efficient then the z9s, but the Z9s have been out for a while now.  I know Inno has the A9+ but its too expensive and its equal to two z9s.

no nothing new for now...best deal would be a used A9 i guess (more efficient than bitmain in the long run)

yes, but also twice as expensive.  I have .046 kwh electricity and I'm trying to figure out which is a better option.
