    Been solo mining with S9i's and Braiins for over a year :) At 300 watts you don't need 2 fans, and definitely not at 100%!. In fact, don't use those fans at all, use Noctua industrial PPC fans. Even at 600 watts I use 2 of them at 60%. If you run 300 watts you'd probably only need one and of course, Noctua's are WAAAAAAAY quieter. :) My miners run 3 feet from me and it's totally ignorable, NOTHING like the fans that ship originally. As a bonus, the OG PSUs on these work at 120v so just plug them in wherever you need heat, don't need 240v at all. :)

    • @juggernautz
      @juggernautz 5 місяців тому +1

      Agreed, Noctua for peace of mind and a quiet home. I use them for my Jasminers. Beforehand I put the X4-1U under the house, cool & quiet.

    @writebhback 6 місяців тому +5

    Hey Hobbyist, great video! If you want to have even lower electric use, you can unplug two of the hash boards (data wires and power wires) leaving just one card plugged in. Allow Braiins to tune it again and you'll have about 1 terahash for about 100 watts, based on your numbers. Myself, I run 1 hash board (S9, Braiins firmware) based on a 700 watt target (so about 230 watts for 1 board) and get about 3 terahash for solomining and not much electric. I also use 120 millimeter quiet fans in place of the noisy Bitmain fans since it doesn't create as much heat with 1 underclocked board. It is quiet, my present PSU is louder.

    Apparently Heatbit has a new, updated mini unit. From the images they post it looks like a custom PCB with 5nm chips and not just a miner stuffed in a decorative shell. You could review that one.

  • @juggernautz
    @juggernautz 5 місяців тому +1

    Is it possible to flash the sha-256 software and upload a new program to mine other crypto ? That would repurpose the S9's which sell for $75 or so because the great thing about aisc's is they are a single purpose device and perform tasks well. Solo mining is fun so at 300 watts is worth the expense for 6.25 BTC. Bear in mind BTC halving is in April 2024

    I actually just bought 2 s9's and built my own space heaters using the Crypto Cloaks kit. Using the same amount of power as my electric space heater and offsetting the cost with 13TH worht of Bitcoin. The idea behind the Heatbit was good, but the execution and price was terrible.

    been running a S9j for about 2 years solo mining. Brains got it down to 4th at only 280 watts at the wall. Fans run at only 3% so basically silent. I will let it run until it just doesn't run anymore and then replace with a T15 i have that's getting 13th at only 510 watts on brains. Run them slow and low for solo mining :-). Let brains adjust those fans make that bad boy silent.
