Antminer E3 output 180mhs with electricity draw of 800watts, it won't matter even if it's patched, that 800watts will drain 99% of your profits and you will be mining at great loss unless you have free electricity and I believe there is no such thing as free electricity

Not everyone pays high power rates

I have 3 here running and they run 197-210mh each @ 768-779 watts each depending on the power rate you pay they are profitable.
If you don't mind can you tell me which country you are from and how much you paying for electricity at kwh ? I'm just curious because 768 is too high I believe, also ETC algorithm is already patched to support 4gb or 3gb VRAM miners
Some countries like US are paying less amount of money for electricity for real but I don't dare try mining with 800w in my own country, in fact it's better to mine with solar power and battery backups, this antminer E3 is obsolete completely, there is no need to keep mining with this rig
