See…this is the type of stuff I’d like to get into as a foray into solar power.

Is that white box the miner?

Mind providing links to the miner and panel?

(For example, we are on a well still connected to the grid but I’d love at least as a backup to have a solar panel I could connect to it or even my generator)

Messing with electricity is a bit out of my current skill set!

Also I hate the idea of getting things permitted (meaning paying the fees…I’m all for standard codes so I don’t kill myself LOl)

…so something like you’ve got here is portable and I could move it outside or keep it there and if someone said something I could move it and indicate it isn’t permanent so no permit required!

Hello, yes the small white box is the miner. Be aware that this is super small scale though, you won't have revenue with this. It's pure lottery mining.

That said:

The panel is a 6W panel with a USB plug that I got from Amazon. I checked today but the link doesn't work anymore. I am sure there will be similar offers though.

I know zero about electricity so I needed plug & play for this. 😅

The miner is an ESP32 chip in a small case with display and fan. It does around 56kh/s and takes around 1W.

I got it from here: https://nerdminer.de/en

The rest was a mic stand, a bit of wire and some double-sided sticky tape 😆
