Finally a sunny day with extra power for some hashing!

Using the extra solar power at this off grid yurt to evaporate the liquids in the composting toilet outhouse

Recently expanded the solar power system from 975w to 1275w so even with the 630w draw of the miner the batteries can still gain charge.

There have been a lot of guests staying at the yurt and a lot of cloudy days, so there hasn't been much hashing going on lately. Today the conditions are perfect!

Off grid hashing, now with double the hashrate!

I changed the angle of the solar panels to see if I could get more power.

Plugged in two of the three hashboards on the m29 miner (wmm20 hashboards in s9 enclosure) instead of just one which all in draws over 1200w

With the panels angled more towards the sky, the system was able to produce almost 1100w which is a couple hundred watts better than I was getting before at the lower angle.

The batteries were taking a beating today getting down below 25v but when I unplugged the miner the voltage was able to get back up above 27v before there wasn't enough light to charge anymore.

When there aren't guests staying at the yurt, the solar power system is hashing and helping to evaporate the liquids in the composting toilet collection tank. The compost system had the option for electric heaters to evaporate liquids. No need for electric heaters when one has a Bitcoin miner. Even better if it can run off the sun!

Absolutely brilliant.

Very cool system! One thing I'd recommend is adding a screen to keep bugs out the miner, better yet a screen followed by a dust filter. It'll help keep it cleaner for longer and from overheating when debris buildup can block air flow inside.

I am working on a design for a clip on screen which would accept an 1in washable filter media. I'm definitely putting some wear and tear on the machines with what time doing.

That's awesome! Using a washable/resusable filter is a great idea. I've done a little testing with the black prefilter material commonly used on indoor air purifiers and it does increase the fan speed since it is restricting airflow to some extent... So using more electricricity initially anyway, but then again after the hashboards are all dirty without a filter the fan speed may be even higher.
