I just sold all my 9 S1's 2 weeks ago on Craig's List. I had them undervolted using only @170 watts each but the $50 I got out of each was more than they would have mined before they went in the red on electric cost.

With temperatures dropping in my region, it's a cheaper form of heat, so yes, it still makes sense for me.

Not if you have natural gas heat.  Sad

Same situation for me, it is pretty cheap to use ants for heat geneartors.

I turned mine off awhile back. Power cost more than my average BTC mined. I was losing .88 cents a day on average per S1.

any advice would be helpful.
Look at what they produce over the course of a week. Does the requisite electricity cost more than the coins?

I was going to upgrade them but decided it wasnt worth it.  I have a s2 and 2x s1's should I just sell my two s1's on ebay? as they dont seem to be making much compared to electricity. Especially with drop in BTC price.


any advice would be helpful.

Mine is still running. I undervolted it, got it deep in the basement and it's mining because I don't feel like pluggin it off Smiley. Well, maybe it is time to put it on ebay but hell, I just like the idea of home mining.
