The S5 runs 24/7 but the S3s are off during peak electricity cost (~50c/kWhr)
50c/kWhr!? What the hell! That's insane!
He said it's autumn there, so I assume that means he's quoting the price of electricity in AUD not USD. The exchange rate is like .7 AUD = 1 USD so his 50 cents is roughly equal to 35 of ours (us being we USA-ites).
And that seems about right. According to this chart:
Electricity prices around the world in $/kWh
http://shrinkthatfootprint.com/average-electricity-prices-kwh#more-3858
The average Aussie pays .29 usd /kWh while the US average is .12 cents -- I pay .08 $/kWh because Pennsylvania is frackland and the natural gas glut is currently keeping our electricity unusually cheap.
In fact, I wanna buy an abandoned factory with utility grade power and start a mining farm.
Then I could stop commuting 90 miles to NYC every day for a living... anyone want to bank roll that? I got just the place all picked out... :-)

Interesting, I have 4 S5's in the basement and it was in the 80's last week, but the basement wasn't too bad. I don't think the S5's heat up as much as the S3's...but I have 4 S5's compared to the 8 S3's I had in the past. And as long as bitcoin is profitable, I'll continue to run those S5's....until the next gen comes out of course.
I have 2xS3 and 1xS5 that are still running.Interesting, I have 4 S5's in the basement and it was in the 80's last week, but the basement wasn't too bad.

The S5 runs 24/7 but the S3s are off during peak electricity cost (~50c/kWhr)
The S5 is usually blowing cool air out of it - they default the fans way higher than needed - so I had almost no problem with it during summer.
The S3s fans are slower and also warmer air coming out of course.
has anyone tried to change the fan speeds in software?
My S5 is basically mining so that the miner payout (the 99.1% transaction) includes more than enough to pay the payout txn fee - so I don't have to add extra inputs to the payout. I simply reduce my miner payout BTC amount in the transaction by the amount I want to be the fee - so as long as that's more than the tx fee that's all OK - it's currently about 20x the fee with the pool around 2PHs and all my 3 miners running most of the time
(the lowest it's been was once around ~5x the fee - i.e. ~20% of my mining payout)

Let's keep this luck running! Rental prices finally dropped this morning I am ready for some blocks! Price jumped back up but orders still active. Someone keeps making orders with 10-20 BTC keeping the price high with no limit orders.

My S3+ arrived yesterday, got it set up last night and it has replaced my S1 in this pool (+250gh), glad to see the luck is still here.
Congrtas on your s3 if your in the market for more I have 18 I would like to sell. I have kept them in my basement all winter but it's starting to get a little warm here in Northern Illinois USA. I have some s3s and some s3+ . $75 s3+ or $65 s3 each + shipping to USA only.

Heh, it's autumn here - daylight savings just ended last night.
Will soon be deciding if there's one (or two) of my varied old hardware worth turning on to heat the place soon
P.S. Yeah prefer people to not use the thread for sales
There's another section of the forum for that.

Cool beans. I aimed all my rigs to this pool now. Upped my rig rental prices so unless someone pays me above average pricing for rentals, I'm all in.
Got about 12TH going now. More to come.
