Hi Peeps.

Ive been questioning the possibility of building a solar farm for years! But I dont have Thousands to invest. All I am looking for is the pure profit that Solar would give after the investment has been paid off. I was looking at a modular setup of smaller rigs, each stand alone.

100 Watt Panels are very cheap on Ebay, around 100 dollars. I know I can get small rigs such as a Gridseed for less than 150 dollars, so then the question is, would it be worth putting as many of these together as possible, keeping each panel and gridseed blade 5-6MH/s as an individual circuit. Total cost with battery around 300 dolars each.

My thoughts are :-

Low Wattage is Safer, I wont be killing myself or any local cats.
Low Wattage does not require any legal CERTIFICATION from the powers that be.
I can build when I can afford, adding to the number of miners
More redundancy
Cheaper Batteries - as this seems to be the problem for any solar setup in terms of cycling and maintenance.


My question is, over a period of time, could such a set up be profitable enough?

Sorry if this question has been asked before.

Thanks
