The reason I want one is because I have a 300w inverter on my 200w solar panel array.  I have the deep cycle battery capable of running one of these for about 6 hours a day without going below 50% of the cell's capacity.  Right now I'm just using a gaw fury, and I thought about one of those stick USB setups but they want  80 bucks for 500mh/s (the moonlander).

If I ran this with just a single 2.6mh/s 40chip PCB, that's only about 50 watts.  I was thinking I could just rest the pcb on top of the antminer heatsink.

If you look here:

^ All I would have to do is set up a fan or something to blow against the heatsink, so I think this is the direction I'll go.
