Anybody try using it to heat your water heater?

Lol how would you do that?  have it exhaust out on the water tank?


Something like a watercooling system

I think that would be a challenge as you need to put cooling heatsinks/tubing on the asic chips -> water heater.

Just submerge them in mineral oil, pump and heat exchanger to the water heater and you are done.  Not only are you done but you've extended the payback of your miner because now it heats your water (which you are paying for anyway)  and mines coin.
