After months of planning, stressing, and budgeting my mining operation is finally up and running! The electrician just installed three 30 amp 240v circuits/outlets, and I'm using heavy duty tripp lite pdu's to distribute power to all 19 miners. My makeshift hot/cold isle is working nicely and keeping temps in a very acceptable range. I'm using insulated tarp to keep the hot exhaust air separate from the cooler intake air so the exhaust can be vented out of the window, and I'm using a 14,000 BTU AC to assist in the cooling process. Let me know what you guys think or if you have any questions.
Is 14000 BTU AC enough for cooling 19 miner?
I could easily purchase another one and it would definitely help, but one gets the job done. The hottest miner of them all runs at 62c and the coolest one of them all runs at 52c. I suspect if I added another AC and put it on the other end of the room the coolest would run in the high 40's and the hottest would run in the low 50's. It's something I may do in the future but for now I don't feel the need to spend $500 for them to run ~10c cooler, 50c-60c is very much an acceptable temperature for them to run at.
