How much power draw?  I wonder at what point going solar is cheaper.

[terrapinflyer]

Last month was 4000kwh Im down from what I was pulling last year by 100kwh a day.

Would be really interesting to crunch some numbers for a 5kw solar system and switch to the tiered pricing where night power is cheaper.

the hosted miner would be better.
try colorbit 1T hosted miner price is only 2.85btc, the total host fee 0.25btc/month(include electricity ).
mining is so easy ,the miner start to work for you within 10 minutes.

 you can check the detail of the miner through the following link
http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/131gBm2SsBjWBLePCVQpSB4gYwbA7e9vS1

and see the worker detail by clicking the tag "toggle display of worker details"

if you want to buy one such miner, just tell me which worker you want to pick and give me your btc address, then we will point it to your btc address on eligius pool
