Exactly! I try to do everything right and still I got corrosion. I’m going mad trying to work out what it could be.

How about your room temp.? Maybe you are living on a cold place that is why it still getting corrosion.

The ideal temp is around 60 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit if you get lower than 60 some components will always fail.


I’m in London, UK. Outside temp is like 8c during the day and 1-2c on some nights. Inside temp is only 3~5c higher.

Its probably the humidity this time of year in the UK. Always damp in the air and if you are drawing in cold air directly from outside chances are thats whats caused it. I'm from the UK and contemplated mining in my garage but it would be roasting in summer and a nightmare for keeping them cool, then winter would be the same problem you are having now. Thought better of it and just downclocked my miners (only a couple of old s9's) and put them in a spare bedroom with the heating turned off, small windows open and a fan blowing hot air out. Seemed to work ok. Well until electricity prices forced me to sell them as they weren't profitable.
