Hi all,
I'm planning to build an outdoor mining rig. Basic idea is to use a waterproof garden storage box, equip it with fans for air in/out and perhaps include a dehumidifier.
I live in a wet, maritime climate with generally cool summers and mild winters. The weather is fairly humid and there are considerable amounts of precipitation.
Any feedback on how to handle 1) fluctuating temperatures, 2) humidity and 3) dust? Well, I guess dust should not be a main concern if I use filters and a closed box.
I was thinking to just have the air inlets and outlets and some temperature and humidity sensors to get an idea of how 'box climate' evolves over time.
Any dos and don'ts?
I am a complete newbie, but plan to document the whole project step by step. See

I would not go outside with gear even if protected from dust if that wet condensation can get in and destroy your mining equipment. Salt or regular water maritime climate you will need to separate it from your gear completely as even just a little can kill machines.
I know this is old gear at this point but it show's corrosion and what it does to miners - Old SP20 thread
