I know what you guys mean with the price of the device but should last about 10 years according to the manufacturer.
If it last that long it should cost between 350 - 400 USD per year.
So if it save you 33 USD per month, it is worth it.

It's just an idea, I'm not planning to do that. Mining is not profitable since a long time.
Only Chinese are mining because they have the cheapest electricity.
I was just wondering how to get cheaper power or more efficient mining.

Who knows, maybe electricity will be very cheap in the future, so buying a 3,5k machine isnt worth it to store electricity.
You need a huge contract from your electricity provider if you want a cheaper rate. China doesnt have the cheapest rates, they just own huge mining rigs and get a very cheap electricity contract from the supply for the huge consume.
Mining at home isnt actually profitable, its just fun trying to set up something and contribute to the crypto network
