have 77mh/s. Want to solo mining. Any advice?



Why do you say solo mining isn't worth it now?  Diff is in the 300-400s which is high, but not insane.  At 77Mh 2 blocks a day would likely eclipse the profits found in a pool, right?



Mining JPC today at 12MH returns about $3 in coins.  Using 1500 watts for 24hrs, is 36 KWH (kilowatthours).  In most of the country, that costs 20-30 cents a KWH, or $7-10.  A net loss of $4-6 per day.  

Even in Central Washington State, where power is cheapest, at around 6 cents a KWH, that still runs around $2 a day.  

I pay 10cents a KWH, or about $90 a month extra on my power bill.  $3 a day is just breaking even, and using up my hardware's life.
