Don't cheap up on the racks, you don't want your farm to up in flames because you used wood.

Btw, do I see an Owl on one of those wooden pillars?

Thats the power company mounting those Transformers, standard power line poles is what they use many times as seen here..  Thats just the way they build, cant do anything about it, but there is nothing wrong with it, non conductive, treated wood.. (and the Plastic Owl is to keep the birds away.. )

The inspection date got bumped up a few days.

A few more pics:



Here are the transformers outside our building. 4 MWs of transformers. They transform the power from 13.2 kV to 480V.



Here's a close up of our cable trays. See the individual cables if you look closely. Each cable has seven conductors: three pairs, with each pair powering an outlet, and a ground.

I think $.10 is pretty standard pricing for miner colocation these days....    

http://coin-mining.mystarpoint.com      

Our pricing has been like this since the beginning, datacenter has been here in Chicago since 2004,  
but you buy power for half the price!  Wish we had that pricing!  $.06 per Kwh here.  

 ?Gonna be exciting to see your launch!  You get those Transformers humming yet?

Wow great looking building - arnt you worried about btc continuing to drop? Just seems like a big investment.

Great for bitcoin that people are still making investments like these

We're not too worried. Our electricity is very inexpensive, those few cents that we're cheaper than everyone else amount to close to $30k in profit each month.

So basically you offer $0.12 price for power + colocation which is nice considering $0.1 regular price for home mining at many places.

If you'd like to pay a year in advance, I can do better than 11 cents/kwh.

Q : which hardware u gona use ?

That's up to you! We're not mining for ourselves (expect for the personal miners I have in my house). We do colocation: you send miners to us: we host them Smiley.

I see Jared is aboard as well.

What edge do you have over Daves mines and the Wenatchee location that you copied the idea from: https://megabigpower.com?



Well if you want to get technical, Dave's mine is in East Wenatchee. He's paying more for electricity over across the river than we are.

We have the small advantage of no lethal exposed hot conductors.

Also, I'm not sure how we copied his idea, since we do hosting and he doesn't.

He's been there for over a year and a half, hence you moving out there to copy his model.  

They started offering hosting last march.  

"lethal exposed hot conductors" - ha ha! Nothing is safe.
