Very very solid setup my friend. How do you make same if you are stupid in electricity ?

you need to have basic knowledge about electricity, there is no control z in electricity, one mistake can cause you your life or put something on fire. unless you have basic knowledge about wiring you should hire someone, you can use my set up as a guide to show to the electrician, but by all means do not attempt this yourself.

I added a few photos for my other mini farm, as well as a bit of wiring and set-up information.

Wonderful setup. Hope you are up and running on all your miners now. Did you end up adding another exhaust fan? and also would be great to see your panel box with 3 phase connection if possible.

looks nice! is it making good profit? (I don't want to know the margin like stupid guys, just yes or no will be great).

Yes

Currently, the mining firm is costing a lot more expensive in your firm, and now how profitable it is? You can estimate how many coins you make every day
If your mini-firm is still running, what do you think should I look at if I want to make a mini mining farm like you?

you should look for a cheap power source, generally speaking anything above 6 cents per kwh is bad.

think of mining as a group of people who buy airplane tickets at different prices ( sourcing miners) , then they all go to the top of a hill where there is a lot of money on ground, and then they all need to walk towards the cliff while collecting money from the ground, the walking speed is the electricity rate, the more you pay for power, the faster you have to walk to the cliff, and once you fall, you might not have collected the ticket price ( the miner cost) if you walked too fast.

I do not feel comftable revealing how much profit do i make, although i would if it had any benefits to the members, but i know it is useless simply because

1- the power cost that i have is nothing like yours.
2- the maintenance fees.
3- the strategy i follow to use the mining generated profit which some of it goes back to more hashing power

i can make a longer list of how irrelevant these information are, people have different electricity rates, different everything adding to this the nature of the crypto market , profits will vary drastically from month to another. you simply need to make your calculations based on your own factor, as of how much I or anybody else make from mining is really of no use to you at all.

use these mining calculators, they are fairly accurate.

if you have any specific question i'll be happy to answer it.

nicely done! I can see how the wall might be beneficial in a large area - my area is not that large so I vent my miners directly outside - they are placed about a foot away from the inside wall with a 6" dryer vent pushing the air outside - I have dehumidfier to help with humidity and a fan pushing about 2500 cfm (used to use an ac unit but found it could not keep up with needed airflow as I added more miners. Also the fan seems to cost less to operate as well.

i am already consuming well over 150 amps. the link you sent me only applies to USA old Electrical infrastructure.

for the the rest of the world ,it's a whole different story.

3 phase means this :

you get 4 wires ( 1 neutral and 3 hot/live )

between every N and L you get 220v
between every L and L you get 380V

so in my case I have either

75amps on 380V.
or 75*3 on 220V.

depending on how you deal with the cables, you can have both 380v and 220v.

so what i did is this.

I bought 3 main circuit breakers
each has a hot wire attached to it.
N wire is shared by the 3 phases.

just in case my explanation is hard to get > read this > https://hotkilns.com/what-difference-between-220-volts-3-phase-and-380220-volts-3-phase-overseas-applications

they refer to this standard as being used in

it's 3 phase , i have roughly 75amps on each phase so more or less 225amps in total

No, you still just have a total of 75 amps but with a 3rd leg feeding the panel you do get to pull 1.732x more watts from the panel.

How many amp do you have access to, and how much is a KwH there? My poor house's 100A feed is maxed.

CLEAN non GPL infringing code made in Rust lang

Oddly enough you might need some of the heat to control humidity, makes for a fun discovery after taking so much effort to isolate the hot air...
Still, very nice setup!

You have a very difficult place for a farm Shocked

. I think air cooling will not cope. at 35 we started to fail the power supply. last summer we used a closed water cooling system. if interested, send a link to a video with a water container. Wink

We are not retail.

Just remount the gable to some plywood that fits over the entire open area, cut out of course for the fan. Essentially your removal will be more efficient.

Hello, I will give you a more simple explanation. If you were to drink a bottled soda ,which are the easiest way to drink it, sucking it with one straw inside the bottled soda OR sucking it with 2 straw with one straw inside and one straw outside of the bottled soda ?
[/quote]

sorry for approaching like this, probably I understood you but made it complicated a bit. If "I" have the maximum amount of pressure so 1 or 2 straw is pointless? But I guess you are mentioning two different holes, two different fans?

would you please explain how will covering the open area around the fan will increase suction? i think fans are rated at x amount of cubic unit they can suck, so regardless , they will only suck what they can , some of the hot air will go through those spaces which supposedly slightly better with than without them, i am a newbie when it comes to air follow/pressure/ventilation. i only do trial and error and have almost no solid numbers based knowledge, so i hope you can explain. thanks a lot.

please seniors, this is very new to me, how do you compute the mine cryptos?what type of crypto do you mine?Does mining mean you have enough resources of crypto?please explain to me all these things, thanks

Very nice set up man but hey you must cover those small opening under the exhaust fan for a better suction of the hot air. Be sure to cover any open wall and windows inside the hot air room.

That's very very sexy rigs you have their!

I wonder how profitable is it with all the rent and space costs
