I love RMHs. Well done!

I’ve wondered about integrating an asic or two into a RMH as a way to capture heat from solar powered ASICS during the day and store it for nighttime use. It might be more efficient to run immersion and capture heat into a big water tank, but the simplicity of storing heat in solid mass intrigues me. Do you have any thoughts on that idea?

I don't see why it wouldn't work, instead of the core of the RMH replace with solar powed Asics, instead of venting outside vent to a location where you need heat the most and let the mass release some heat at night when the asics aren't running. For it to be effective, you would need to generate more heat than you needed during the day and figure out how to charge the mass with it.

Perhaps two independent chimneys. While traditional rms must push through the thermal mass and vent out of the home, the asic miner would push through the thermal mass and back into the the home.

Yes! I’d definitely want to be able to also burn wood. Love this.
