This is the BEST WAY I've Found to Mine BItcoin at Home!

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

Are you Crypto Mining from Home? If so, what creative method did you come up with to handle the heat and noise?

[@michaelbutler7230]

I my self don't have the money for mining at this point....once I do ? underground Concrete seller maintains it own temp year around you may need to add a little help for that, and notice it's below grown you may not hear it very much

[@JoshuaBelke-fy2ry]

Start with repasting the chips - pink/dry paste deserves a redo; the temps will hold better for sure

[@MarcosReviews]

Great video, but I have to disagree with the idea of submerging ASIC miners in oil as they aren't really designed for that. The thermal paste used in most ASICs, including Bitmain’s models, is specifically made for air cooling. That’s why Bitmain released a dedicated immersion cooling model. Using traditional air-cooled ASICs in immersion setups can lead to inefficiencies and problems over time. It's just not cost-effective and can be a waste of money and ROI. If you're serious about immersion cooling, it's better to invest in machines that are actually built for it

[@lunchbox7557]

You could have dropped a few plastic wrapped bricks in the fog hash to replace the displacement of the broken miner, cheap and easy.

[@jrosesftv]

And that's why I don't do asic immersion. After I built a water cooled gaming pc I had enough with the immersion. No thank,. in the end it costs more.

[@blackmennewstyle]

Kinda useless to buy those expensive immersion setups if you can not even take advantage of the extreme cooling capability and overclock your miners 👎🏾

[@Dan-ASICPlug]

Definitely can do so effectively. I have 6 S19K Pro's running in an older FogHashing unit, hitting 165-170TH a unit.

[@redg8gt]

@@Dan-ASICPlug can i ask what firmware you are using and what the stock th is for your model s19j pro's? i just bought a used s19j pro 104th and will be trying to squeeze everything i can out of it.

[@Dan-ASICPlug]

@@redg8gt S19K Pro stock is 120th. This model is uniquely suited for this as they are extremely efficient for the S19 variants with 23J/TH. These are running on Braiins.

[@digitaltanish]

whats better than having nicehash quickly switching for most profits, selling compute power and getting BTC? thats what i think, tho i am a newbie here in mining, please correct if i'm wrong, looking forward for a comparison video, cheers

[@WannaBeQuant_SUB]

chips degrade over time due to voltage. increasing the voltage on a chip will increase degradation, power and heat.

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

Yeah sadly cost of doing business the way I see it. Ashame but will run the XP with 2 boards for now.

[@michaelbutler7230]

I have no idea if Douglas products in liberty Missouri still anything with htf fluids or not but you could always call and ask and the main mechanic Cory is a genius...

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

Thank you!

[@Lunam_Creates]

Is it true that you can upgrade software on existing machines

[@Iamspeedhunter]

BT Miners is awesome! I like their customer service how you can call them and talk to an actual human. Plus they cover tariffs for U.S. customer which can be super expensive.

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

Couldn't agree more!

[@MrCDub]

Oh my, looks like the fluid went everywhere... hope it wasn't too much to clean up! Thanks for another fantastic video.

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

It was a mess. Still finding it and cleaning it up.

[@DontMindMeMining]

I think you can place a plastic bottle just filled with the any liquid to make up for the volumes just make sure plastic can hold up to immersion fluid. And keep one unit running this way. Just a thought. I have c6 tank and I was running only 2 ASICS to begin with until I got others in.

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

Creative Idea! Thanks!

[@TechManTY.]

Is your pump variable? You can increase the fluid flow to help. Everything has a limit, slugging chips with too much voltage will always cause failures eventually.

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

That I do not know. However good point!

[@daveyio87]

I’m currently using braiins os on my 2 s9 i have one reduced power and the other i brought to work (auto technician) and that one sits on my box and will keep me warm in the winter time. I have an idea to use some of the heat from mining and using air to liquid method with a liquid to liquid heat exchanger to dump the heat in the pool. I know i could use air conditioning to dump heat into the pool with a special heat exchanger. Could be a fun project. Its just an idea for now. I have a pool heater.

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

Thanks for sharing. Good Idea!

[@ronmckay9037]

I have the single unit (identical) I guess it's nice to know where I stand only had this less than a year

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

I replaced my fluid only because I was going to have the unit down for months at a time and removing the S19XP. If not I would of just let it run. How are you liking yours?

[@RadicalRocks]

Sorry, I had to laugh when I saw the oil spraying all over😅

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

@@RadicalRocks I laughed at myself afterwards too, what a mess.

[@jean-francoisaubin]

I use vnish to undervolt my s19

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

@@jean-francoisaubin vanish is a good option too!

[@tianinc]

I got clickbated again. The BEST way ? Are you serious ?

[@polli3578]

i thought i got a teams message while watching this.

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

haha! Sorry! DING!

[@mariomoin7111]

pls test braiins os ❤

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

On the List! Only downside of BraiinsOS i found is that they WANT you using their Bitcoin Pool.

[@MrSkinny602]

lol oil everywhere thats funny right there I dont care who you are thats funny. Its too late now but I wonder if it would have been a good ideat to replace all the thermal paste on both miners before restoring them to the oil bath. Maybe the oil is breaking down the paste and thats what causing the chips to go bad possibly user thermal pads instead of paste?

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

That I do not know. I did connect with other larger scale immersion miners. They don't get concerned about the thermal paste replacement because in oil you don't have to worry as much about thermal paste like we do with air cooling.

[@kinmantam5080]

Sounds like once a miner is used with immersion cooling, it cannot just be used with air cooling again without some additional work on the hashboards.

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

@@kinmantam5080 correct

[@haroldsmith6640]

just buy another board.
