+1 to Gabrics' statement.

A major issue for most people running profitability calculations is that they don't consider total cost of electrical: the $/kWh rate listed on your electric bill is probably not the full picture.

And even Gabrics didn't mention another major issue: cooling costs.  One of my S9j boxes throws off 1350W of heat...which is like having a hair dryer running full blast on hot...all the time. Multiply that by even 10 boxes, and you're talking about a TON of heat that you have to dispose of.

...and that's not counting the noise. Smiley
