Topic: Best Way to Power an ASIC / Free Power ? - page 2. (Read 1285 times)
It takes years until the cost of solar power is back in. So no, its no free power. And you would need a solar farm to power a chunk of overclocked bitburner xx...
What are the best ways people have thought of to power their ASICs?
Running an ASIC with free power would basically make it always worthwhile to run. It would never hit a GH/electricity cost limitation that way. This would be perfect.
Does anyone have this figured out? Aside from straight stealing electricity which I don't want to do. I want to be ethical about it.
Solar power seems to be a good choice as it would offer free electricity, but I don't know a lot about it. If I were to invest in some sort of solar power device then my ASICs could be powered for free from here on out. I did a little research but it looks very expensive to power things with solar. I couldn't find a solution that put out enough watts and that was inexpensive enough to make it worthwhile.
I estimated that my electricity costs will be about $60 per month to power my ASICs and after a year that is $720 of electricity costs. My electricity is abour 14 cents/kwh. (I live in Florida)
Anyone have any better ideas for this??
