PI1 is now down to a single Compac F (1 of the 2 is now showing 0 chips...)
P12 has 1 Compac F and 4 2PAC's (I had mislabeled them as new pacs)

Username: kkmonte_5
Device type: S9_custom
Normal speed: 1100 GH/s

i'll have one more, _6 coming at some point in the next week, then once the bitaxe shows up from china, that will be the end and my miners should be stable and just work away!

Thanks, have update the list.
Did you user the s9 as a heater for your home?

Have sean that kind of heater some times, but the power cost in germany is terrable for that, cant do it.

Best regards from the cold germany

Hi Willi, you can update kkmonte_4, kkmonte_5, and kkmonte_6 to be S9 miners.  They are running one hashboard so output 1.11 th/s.  I did a bunch of power tests, playing with voltage and mhz of the board to determine the most efficient and cheapest miner for solo mining using my old s9's that I had.  The past 4 winters, I used them to help heat my house, I had them set up around my basement (which is insulated and sealed well) and they made the basement 70 deg F in the winter, which then, the heat made its way up into the main floor.  I ended up saving about 400 gallons of heating oil, which is about $1200-$1300 USD in oil, a small savings with using electric for miners but I was earning btc. 

As you said, for this solo pool miner, it's best to use least amount of electricity, and sacrifice some hashrate since our odds are basically the same whether my miner is running at 1100 gh/s or 3300 gh/s, odds are more or less the same.

Thanks, maybe 2024 will be our lucky year!  have you done any block parties lately?

I run the Blockparty runs every one / two weeks. The last was done yesterday and we start organizing the next one this or latest beginning next week.

I can post the link here or have a look at the cksolo pool topic.

UPDATE: here is the next Blockparty number 57 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5237323.msg63523593#msg63523593

Best regards,

Welcome and cross our fingers for a big big bestshare to crack maybe a block in the future

Amazing how many miner come inter the small idea from me. It makes fun and if you have time, take photo and share it with us how your mining setup looks like. I love that Kinde of pics…

Best regards,
Willi

[kkmonte]

Hey Willi, here are two pics of my setup.  The S9's were old and the previous person who owned them ran them hot and didn't clean them, they were so dirty when i got them, I had to task them all apart, and the control boards won't work with more than 1 hashboard connected so as you see on the left i had to use 3 control boards to control each hashboard.  But having them in one enclosure saves me on the number of fans being run (control board 2 and 3 are set up in immersion mode) and I just let one control board run the fan at 8% speed (that is enough).  I also am using two modular 1000w power supplies that I had, that are completely silent.  Both of these miners don't make hardly any sound, but produce a little bit of heat.  They are only pulling about 680 watts at the wall.

hello, I am new, I have just acquired: mars lander (bitcoin merch) with 3 gekko science key (BM 1397)

I should provide between 925 and 960 GH/s.

I will have a question, as I participate if there is a gain (I would see it on the PI zero Wh which manages the mining software has an oled)

how I would be paid, because the mining address is that of our team (I have a personal BTC address). Thank you for your answers .

You will need to mine to the BTC address listed bc1qeuupt2tgerfum8jclt8aklu9cdmzzkwml9lg7c as seen in his example on the first page of this thread:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5478927.0
Example:

User "Willi9974" with 2 miners

configure the first miner with: bc1qeuupt2tgerfum8jclt8aklu9cdmzzkwml9lg7c.willi9974_1
configure the second miner with: bc1qeuupt2tgerfum8jclt8aklu9cdmzzkwml9lg7c.willi9974_2


I can personally attest to Willii9974's honesty and trust.

[Marslander]

thank you for your return, I have correctly put the BTC address provided (I currently provide 941 GH/s) it is necessary to leave a few hours for stability (GH/s)

Welcome Marslander,

i have nothing to add, Sledge0001 has all explained, thanks for that.
But i have one wish, we would collect some pictures of our miner here. if you have time take a picture and link it in a posting, so i can add it on our first page.

Thanks and best regards,
Willi

[Marslander]

I have a picture, but I don't know how to publish it (the picture is on my PC).

[kkmonte]

I whispered to all of my miners today, that I only want them to submit work that results in at least 1T+ best shares, so we'll see if they listen...
