As much as i love bitaxe, nano 3s is the best option right now in terms of cost/th ratio if you’re interested in a small miner. This runs at 6 th/s and the price is about $300. I also ordered avalon mini 3 recently which runs at 35 th/s and thr price is about $1000 bucks.

Damn so best $ for th/s is the Avalon mini 3?

No there is another beast which is avalon q. Runs at 90 th/s on 1500w and the cost is about $2000. Very silent but imo running 1500w for 90th/s isn’t a hobby anymore for home mining.

Damn $150-$175 estimated monthly cost on electricity.. I’m gonna really think about it, it might make sense tbh

yeah if you have low cost electricity, it makes sense!

Wow you must have really expensive electricity!

I got two of these babies and the electricity is costing me $11.09 Canadian per month each..

The problem is, after the first month, I already got a FILTER error.

I removed the slide-out filter on the back and blew a fan through it and then put it back in. I blew air through the front vent too. I am still getting the FILTER error on the screen on both miners. Can you help me with this?

i've been running two nano 3s and one mini for a few months now but haven't had any issues yet. when you say you got a filter error, is it just a warning or the device stopped working? ive got similar warnings and each time i just reseted from the app without doing anything on the device.

The screen changes and turns into a filter icon and the word FILTER appears on the screen. Bothe devices top working (showing has on screen, but status disconnected in app). This was after less than one month on both of them.

Ok I will try to see what I can do with the app. Thanks.

ok I was clearing the filter warning from the app and resetting the filter usage cycle from the option there, however I had some wifi network issues which prevented the change from registering at first. Everything ok now after a few reboots of WAPs and the miners.

Do you happen to know of a USB Ethernet adaptor that is compatible with these things? I really hate wifi lol

Don’t you need to register your machine when running an Avalon miner?

no i solo mine to my own pool
