S9 will never dieā¦ as such, so they become heaters.
Update on the s9 revival. Settled on a 400w tune with all 3 hash boards working. Fans basically silent running at 1%. That was yielding a steady 4.6TH.
- After finally hitting a block with nostr:npub1qtvl2em0llpnnllffhat8zltugwwz97x79gfmxfz4qk52n6zpk3qq87dze pool my humble s9 yielded me a whole 67 satoshis.
- According to ocean it would take about 7 years for me to reach the payout threshold š.
- not feasible to mine with a pool, too power hungry to leave on as a lotto minerā¦ sad to say but I think the age of the s9 is officially over ā ļø

physicall and operationally, the thing is an absolute tank. Still hashing away after all these years without hesitation. But economically (even as a space heater) s19ās or even s17ās can be had for just a few hundred bucks and make exponentially more sense..
the only advantage to the s9 is the direct plug in to 120v with no modifications, but there are people solving that problem for the newer gen miners already and I expect those solutions to get more popular / more user friendly as time goes by.
Couldnāt agree more. Regarding tank and 120v sentiments.
I have a design to bring S19 efficiency to the North American living room. Zack Bomsta dropped Loki on the world and changed the game.
Canāt wait to get my hands on one (or many) of those Lokis haha.. Looking forward to whatever youre cooking up too!
Duuuudeā¦ go check it www.pivotalpleb.com
He released a guide to get APW12 running on 120v as well.
Hereās my test bench with 120V APW12 as testing PSU because variable voltage.
š! 
Dude This is so sick. Did you print that enclosure too?!
Designed and printed ser.
This is my take on a āLokiā rigā¦ 27T @ 650W on 120V.
This is the best note Iāve seen today š
Heās good to follow. Excited to see this thing live!
Iāve been wondering does the control board accept regular 4 pin pwm pc fans? Or do you have to get any special dams/adapters??
Iām using 4x Noctua for standard PWM control.
But PivotalPlebTech.com also make the Njord boardā¦. Plugs into CB and allows FW to control an AC infinity inline fan.
Thanks for the follow nostr:npub1jd0hhpc7ched2rgg2ej6smzdd5gzenpag48r2gea2pgynafqtevqwm0cwj! Coincidentally, I just bookmarked this thread yesterday to check out when I got the chance. Love what youāre doing with the StealthMiner. šš¤
šš» I've been building during the bear and quite encouraged by everyone's interest in what I am doing over here.
I too look forward to getting a 120V S19 for the upcoming winter. š¤
