This is a Public Service Announcement.
Please do not install ASIC miners in your house without consulting electricians.
Sure, if you have the low hash units like the Jalapenos, Blades, Cubes, etc, you don't have to talk to your local electrician, unless you have more than 10 of these units.
All the new, upcoming miners require kilo-watts of power. Take the example of the Terraminer: it requires you to pull power from 2 separate circuits and will probably require you to upgrade from 15 Amp to 20 Amp. KNC Neptunes require similar power draw and upgrade.
How many people are going to install these potential fire hazard without proper care and understanding? Quite a lot, I'm afraid.
