I've got a few S9j boxes running underclocked at ~700W. It's a standard setting on a number of the custom firmwares out there. (I use Hiveon because it's easy and mostly decent.)

That shows you some of the prebuilt setups they have.

As people have noted, they are not even REMOTELY as profitable as newer miners: at best, you're looking at 77.3 J/TH vs 22 J/TH (or whatever). That said, they work great as space heaters that pay you a little money.

I'm running a number of the boxes in these shrouds: https://www.cryptocloaks.com/the-future-of-space-heaters-s9-bitcoin-asic/

Next steps are to tear apart 19-series boxes and use Loki hacks to get profitable space heaters that run on 110V: https://pivotalpleb.com/collections/all

Good luck!
