I PURCHASED A THOR P2 BITCOIN MINER TODAY. I WILL REVIEW SOON

[philipma1957]

SO A few months ago I was sent 4 hammer miners from the builder in China

I reviewed them here on bitcointalk.

I like them.

I like them so much I decided to pay for a newer model on my own and review to show how good it is.

I did buy the  Thor P2 bitcoin miner from altairtech.

I have been a support for altairtech as a USA based seller of gear.

but this will be an honest review on gear I paid for on my own dime.



There is a screen shot of the purchase made today.  About 465 price usd with shipping

I paid full price other than a 1 percent coupon.

I really want to let both altairtech and hammer miner that I support them and here is hoping the bm1373  chip p2 is as good as the bm1370 chip gear was.

I purchased the 2 chip unit because it uses an eth cable which is a big deal for me.

I will leave open for comments.

 I forgot to moderate and killed the first thread.

I also got this because the price has not risen so if the rally goes up these will go up bigly in price.

I think This unit can tweak to 8th and 80-90 watts if so it can be a fun dca miner.

[philipma1957]

This comes today. I will post later today.

it is here.  quick screen shot.  I have it pointed at viabtc and not doing solo








settled in at 9.5 th and 13 watts a th at 720 freq

[philipma1957]

spacer
with some time it has moved to 10.9th
and 134.6 watts
this is 12.34 watts a th

and it may go better than that






here is a custom under clock  freq 400 volts 201

I am playing to see if I can get under 10 watts a th




success I can do 9.1 to 9.4 watts a th


https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=348927.msg2230422#msg2230422

So I own the Thor p2 miner came to my home today.

I am playing with custom clocks and can do under 10 watts a th see below


here are the custom settings
 freq 400     ....   normal setting is   freq 470
 volts 1.95  .....  normal setting is  volts 2.02
 fan 40%     ....  auto




this is the most efficient unit I have ever used.

THOR X1 -299 USDT
THOR P2 -499 USDT
Prices in Russia, Direct deliveries from China.
I've been eyeing these devices for lottery mining for a while now. They have a 3 nm BM1373 chip, the same one the manufacturer uses in the Antminer S23.
I'm really into the 10 terahash model for solo mining, but I'm too lazy to spend $500 right now

The thor p2 is the better one as it offers eth cable or wifi connection  which is better than just wifi

It has two... settings

overclock at 720 freq
Normal  at 470 freq

Or custom I am doing custom setting  and it is under 10 watts 9.1 to 9.6 watts  which is amazing.

Do you combine your solo miners to increase the overall hashrate in the pool, or is each ASIC configured for a separate address?

I always compare solo miners to the Bitmain Antminer S9, which I can buy for $25 with a board kit and mine 9TH/s with 700-750 watts of power. Do you understand why I'm so stingy with the $500?

[altair_tech]

These miners will go all the way 11T, out of the box at 800mhz (freq hard cap)
No power or cooling upgrade required.

I already showed this can do 12th

and if i want i can mine 9th at 95-100watts. give me a few minutes and I will program it.


for easy math lets say I do 100 watts and you do 700 watts.

100x365x24=876,000 watts burned in a year or 876 kwatts

you burn 7x876=6,132 kwatts

so i save 6132-876=5,256 kwatts

at 10 cent power 5256x.10=525.6

525.60 power savings in a year.

at 20 cent power 5256x.20=1,051.2

so 1,051.20

now even at 5 cent power

.05x5256=262.8

262.80 in power saved over your cheap s9


so the only way you can argue for an s9 is 1 cent or 2 cent power.

give me a minute I will program the unit to show 9th

so here it is doing 9.1th at 113 watts which is 600 watts less than your low cost s9

600x24x365=5,256,000 watts or 5256 kwatts a year saved vs the cheaper upfront s9






I have not tweaked it and found if I can go to 95 or 100 watts vs 113 watts an hour.  but a 5200 kwatt savings is a lot

at 4 cents it is 0.04x5200=208 dollars a year
at 5 cents it is 0.05x5200=260 dollars a year
at 6 cents it is 0.06x5200=312 dollars a year
at 7 cents it is 0.07x5200=364 dollars a year
at 8 cents it is 0.08x5200=416 dollars a year

at 9 cents it is 0.09x5200=468 dollars a year
at 10 cents it is 0.10x5200=520 dollars a year
at 11 cents it is 0.11x5200=572 dollars a year

at the 25 cents in my home it is .25x5200=1,300 dollar a year saved in power cost

So basically at 9 cents power and up it is a no brainer to use this unit.

at 6 to 8 cents is is a bit gray

at 4 to 5 cents I could argue for the s9

at 1 to 3 cents the s9 is likely better.





But if you have 1 to 3 cent power get a s19 mod it with altairtech's epic controller

and do 60th for 1300 watts at viabtc.com do not solo mine

you make 2 bucks a day and burn 93.6 cents or 1 dollar a day profit for a profit of 365 a year.

Basically don't solo mine if you have 1 to 3 cent power


back to the Thor p2

it can do under 10 watts a th if under clocked I paid around 470 for it

The Bitmain Antminer S9 is a very old ASIC, but it's profitable to mine it if electricity is free.
If you do the math, it's better to get the Bitmain Antminer S19 with one board and minimal power consumption.
You can get 25 TH/s with 650-700 watts, which translates to an energy efficiency of 26-28 J/TH.
$100 for the ASIC and $200 for the ePIC UMC controller with shipping-that seems more cost-effective to me.

where you live with 3-6 cent power the s19 modded is a good option

here in the USA in homes the Thor P2 is good as 50 to 110 watts is not a lot of money

50x24x365=438,000  438 yearly kwatts on lowest setting
110x24x365=963,600  963 yearly kwatts on higher setting

at 20 cents it is .2x438=87.6 a year in power
up to 0.2x963= 192.60 a year in power

but 700 watts is far more

700x24x365=6,132,000 or 6132 kwatts at 20 cents   1264 a year in power

so many in the usa are 20 cents and over this Thor P2 is the way to go

We're all from different countries here. The average salary in the US is $5,400, while the average salary in Russia is $1,000.
However, electricity costs vary greatly.

In the US, it's probably cheaper to buy a solo ASIC for $500-$1,000, but for me, it's easier to upgrade an old ASIC, but pay a little more for electricity per month.
