It’s an ‘electric space heater ‘ that mines bitcoin to make heat. 😀

It’s like 1/2 of a S21 ASIC but almost silent and can run on a household circuit.

Amazing product.

Do the math, I guess. Hard to beat a paid for machine.

I think it’s a good move, esp if you need the heat.

This product is built well, it’s very quiet and it’s putting out serious heat.

I would like to see a bitcoin furnace from Canaan. 🤔

This is the best heater miner I’ve seen so far.

Wow surprising - my impression is that the power cost is high in EU. The heat offset is the key to profitability with home mining.

Once you’ve replace the heat you needed the profitability is more difficult to achieve.

If you need the heat, easy win.

Eco (54.19 TH/s, 843W)

Normal (80.71 TH/s, 1403W)

High (90 TH/s, 1674W)

My home has a 30 year old electric forced air furnace, a small wood stove and a fireplace.

I cut the power consumption in half by switching to an ecobee smart thermostat.

I tuned up the fireplace fans and replaced the gaskets, much better now.

I added a 8” inline fan to the HVAC to circulate the air across the 3 floors this past summer - this allowed a modest AC to cool the whole house. ( harmonized a 4-5C temp difference)

Hobby mining has been great for passive heat ( 3 nanos and a gpu rig) on the lower level.

The Avalon Q is maintaining 24C in the 3900 sqft house for the last 48hrs on eco. Granted it’s a mild 12-15 C outside today.

I’ll add a 20A circuit and use some 3d printed shrouds to pipe the heat into the HVAC with the 8” fan boosting it.

I’m thinking a bitcoin sauna might be a fun idea. 🤔

Still on eco 24hrs later - still 24C in the whole house.

I think as long as you’re comfortable covering the $2.50 - $5/ day cost of running it it’s great.

If cashflow is a struggle you’ll need to sell some bitcoin along the way.

Grok tells me the ROI is about 1.5 yrs depending on use case / power cost.

My wife LOVES the warm house.
