[FUN]Heatbit Is the First Space Heater That Mines Bitcoin

[TalkativeCoin]

Buy Antminer or whatsminer or what ever you name it put this on the ceiling   you get heater with actually profitable mine   the noise might annoying but the hot is real   or just buy cheap heater like stompix said



i think the real idea of this heater add "bitcoin miner" is to get more sales and they thinks it looks very cool

Is this your setup or? Where are you funneling the heat to?

No its not i got it from the internet but there is dozen setup like this, and usually the funneling out from the exhaust fan

Ohhh, I see 

I was wondering if they're maybe pushing the heat to some air exchange in their household/whatnot, so it gets dispersed further around.

a) They are extremely loud, so I reckon you won't have it where you're spending most of the time, especially with a couple of them in the same room

Room heater sound level (30-45) Deci-Bel.

Is that their (Heatbits) specification or? If so, yes, then that would be OK for room use noise-wise.

Heatbit website claim their heater has <42db noise.

In fact, judging by the tests on the videos posted on the heatbit website, the noise slightly exceeds the 42db declared by the manufacturer and is 53.2db, but I think this is within the norm. I didn't think that the device has such an impressive size, judging by the photo heatbit is quite large.

53 dB is A LOT more than 42 dB, the dB scale is logarithmic, but I think that's still decent generally speaking.

I checked one[1] of the review and the sound itself isn't bad compared with other home appliance. So while it's loader than their claim (could be because chosen mining speed or distance), IMO it's still within comfortable range.

Their claim is ambiguous, to say the least. They did say it was at full power, but the testing method is unknown, even "full power" can be misinterpreted too. I think most companies do this nowadays so that's that. Not a big deal unless you really want to find something so quiet.

Here, too, it is necessary to take into account how the testing was carried out, there is, for example, a video where the noise is measured Compare HeatBit and Bitmain Antminer S9 using an android application, I think that in any case the noise level there is much less than that of an Asic miner, starting from 5.24min

53db is just too much for a heater!

I watched the video, and the guy at 4:00 says that he's surprised the sounds come only from the air being moved just as a normal fan and he can't hear any mechanical noise. WTF!!! What kind of mechanical noise would you expect from a miner other than the fans? Pickaxes chipping away bitrocks?  

Also, the heat test is just nuts!
He compares a 1.4 kw machine with a 2KW heater and surprise surprise, the results reflect the power draw.

You want a heater that mines some coins and does not cost $800?
Just go with this solution:

They mine at the same hashrate, they radiate the same heat (d'oh), and you're left with $1000 you can buy some coins now!

It's an S9 in a box, put an ASIC miner in a sound proof box and you're going to get the same result!

Kind of makes you wonder. If you really want to make something like this would you be better off designing something that used a standard size PC case and chips that were mounted on cards that were then hooked up to industry standard liquid coolers.

Eliminating all the other crap, something like what Butterfly Labs promised with their monarch cards but with more up to date hardware. And not run by a company that cuts and runs with the money.
