Yeah, 10-12 cents sounds about right for the U.S and of course isnt acceptable to mine with at the moment. The 7 cents that they offered you for the winter isnt bad at all! Although even at that price you will probably have to struggle with your bill. Embarrassed

I was thinking of buying some of the insilicone 47th/2100w miners, which seem to be about the only ones that can still make a profit but Ive never purchased from them before and not sure that they even have them in stock.

Have you or anyone in this pool ever bought anything from these guys?

Yes, even at 7 cents, I am losing money - but I am using it for heat so that helps offset it in my mind a little. I have not bought from insillicon but it appears that this is pre-order. It also seems that they are from China, so if you are in the US, be prepared to pay 27% above the $2,279 price. By the time March arrives, the BTC price may continue to decline or difficulty may go crazy again, so it may take years to get your purchase price covered beyond the power. Also, there is a slim chance that they may never deliver a quality product (or any), so be prepared to throw your BTC away.

Most of the people on this forum usually wait until someone has actually received a unit and tested it out. Of course someone needs to be that person, so if it is you, please share your findings!

Yeah, heating the house is good, I heat up mine a little when needed. Unfortunately it isnt needed much where Im located so it would be nice to make some miners heat up the water, since that costs a lot too. Ive heard that Russians heat have transformed some of their farms to do just that in Moscow, I think.

And yes, Ive heard about the 27% and I know that it would take forever to get the ROÍ anyhow but at least the miners arent as expensive anymore. For example I payed for all my S9s like $2300 each!!! And now they are like $400 with the power supply!!! That was a horrible deal! But thats how it goes, you win some and you loose some. Undecided

Im not sure about that T3 model, I think there were a couple more miners that put out lots of TH and use little electricity. My brother sent me a link like a month ago with the list of them but I cant find it anymore. Embarrassed

Found it!!!

One is Ebang Ebit E11++ which supposedly puts out 44th at only 1980w

And the Asicminer 8 Nano which puts out 44th at 2100w just like the T3

If anyone had any kind of business with one of these companies, please let us know. Thanks!
