hey fox - been running a solar mining shed for a few years. tips i offer are: buy USED panels and go with ground mounted solar racks, build your own frames using dimensional lumber to keep costs low. You can use deck blocks with 4x4 posts if you cut patches out in grass and level/place compacted gravel under each concrete block, you can guy down the frames against wind on the backside using lawn anchors and a small turnbuckle to tighten. build a shed or buy a cargo trailer to house your inverter/battery buffer and put your miners in a grow tent with an exhaust fan and a large passive filtered inlet. Don't get too carried away on your battery setup - just get enough (say 10kwh or so) to keep the system running without rebooting a bunch for a few hours on those cloudy-intermittent days. If you're in the midwest or canada - just forget about making any real power from about mid-late november until late january. forget small wind its a waste of time, just over-panel your setup for the cloudy days and tweak as you need. You can probably get something like this going for around 15-20k if you do the work yourself. Cheers.
I'm heavily invested in Warthog and AI (Salad). I have 3 traditional 8 GPU rigs with the 3060ti and 3060 rigs on Xelis and my 6600XT's on Ravencoin as well. In total 140 GPU's.
4:18 LFG solar !!!!! Going solar like you, optimizing my rig to run multiple VMs on some vGPU, scripting it all to mine when not rented, and if not enough energy, keeping them in C State to be available to rent =D
The Solar Energy thing is a great idea to minimize your cost cost of Electricity. I’m ok with running nodes but not staking Crypto & to be locked down in long term contracts. Like Buying US Savings bonds for a year & then being forced as your interest shrinks away & even the USD looses in Value. For ne its time to get especially all my crypto gear packaged bc i will be moving in California within the next 2/3 months. Because my Building is to close to a massive PG&E Substation feeding the Bart Rapid Transit system. The problem is that thejr technology, especially that of the substations is outdated & not sufficiently shielded for EMP & Tri field Radiation which is harmful to my IT Equipment. Especially for Motherboards whose Bios gets nonstop corrupted & even my Wireless Printer gets affected.
Love it, great plan man! Keen to hear more about your solar setup as you get it going. I've been wanting solar for years, but been in an apartment 🥲 I guess I'll keep living vicariously through you for the moment haha 🔥🔥
Happy New Year and Thanx for the link- I had been considering doing a reoccurring bitcoin purchase. Also, let us know when you are getting ready to sell off some of your old inventory!
Im doing much of the same, I off set solar to bring my rate down into the sub 10c range and run a few rigs. But, I also went very hard into depin last 2 qtrs of 2024 and plan to double down even more next 2 qtrs. Depin is really paying off. Geodnet, Hivemapper, Helium Mobile all did excellent returns and runs on almost zero power. I have them loaded up at all my relatives and business places possible, Dimo as well. Just give them a little cut of the profits.
That's wonderful dude. I have my wingbits geodnet hardware on order. Excited to dive deeper into that. I've been using Dimo, Helium, Crankk which have been fun to mess around with.
Sell all 20 and 30 series ( keep 3070, though ) and sell all 1660 SUPER and TI ( keep regular 1660 ) and buy as much 4060 ti 8G you can get ;-) I am on Solar for 2 years now and - you need Power efficiency to make the most out of it at least during spring and partially summer it is key to have several tiny rigs to switch on and off as you go. With little rigs you also want to make sure you have efficient mainboards and CPU's. Solar becomes very frustrating over here from October to February :-( Also it is worth looking into CPU mining Rigs R9 7950 ;-) . CPU's tend to earn more $ per W.
Did you calculate the efficiency comparison between converting paycheck to BTC, versus converting paycheck into electricity/GPU's, and converting Alt's into BTC? Is the extra effort and all the conversions from one state to another state really cost effective?
What is funny with crypto is that everything always feel like a "Déjà-Vu" lol Although i have to say that cycle is weird compared to previous ones, also lot of incentives from a lot of parties. Choose your poison wisely beautiful people, never forget "FIAT" is the issue just like "CAPITALISM"...
Let us know the nodes you are running or plan to run. I am running Flux Nodes with good returns, low power, staking investment not terrible. What are some other network nodes I should look at?
4090s and 4080 supers all on AI(salad) everything below that is on NH to btc. Coins that I mined during Bearmarket sell/xchange to btc when /if they pump. Maybe sell some cards if the price works. Get ready for the next Bearmarket.
I have 9900Wp PV and a 10kWh battery installed at my home. My power supplier charges 17.8 €c/kWh for demand and pays 2,8 €c when i feed back into the grid. I have an automation on home assistant that turns on my miners when battery charge is above 80% and stops when below 70%. Only mining with my "old" gaming gpu's: 1070ti, 3070ti and a 3080ti. Not realy worth it but happy to not give free money to my power supplier :)
that's the way ... honestly i am actually working on this type of automation ;-) What you get paid to feed back to the grid is a joke, same here actually ... which makes perfect sense ... we actually have more Power we need when the sun is shining while we all produce zero when sun does not shine - obviously .
@@normana.8559 Where I live it's getting realy stupid: electricity prices are based on gass prices. Past year the distrubutors imported more energy than they exported. That imported energy comes from neighbouring countries nuclear plants that have cheaper power than our domestic gas plants. So we pay as if it were gas powered but its actualy cheap nuclear... viva la revolution 😀
The solar electricity isn't "free". Even after the solar panels are payed for, they have a limited life span before replacement. Also, what percent of daylight-days will actually be available to generate electricity? Even if you supplement with wind, there may be days and weeks that are cloudy and calm.
You act as thought the average lifespan of 25-30 years isn't long enough? The 20 panels I have are warrantied for 30 years from manufacturer. Return on investment is exactly that - once the system has generated the same value he'd have otherwise paid for, the system is essentially free. Anything generated after ROI is just the cherry on top. Even if the panels go to 0 value as scrap, you've already made your money back. Of course there will be rain/clouds, any good system auto fails over to pull from the grid as needed. He can easily program a controller to spin up or spin down the solar powered miners based on incoming or outgoing energy.

Keep it ON! Cheers!
Great Video!
Thanks buddy!

hey fox, please document your entire solar journey - i want to do something similar, but just done have enough resources
Yo! Happy new year!!!
Happy new year buddy!
BOUT DAMN TIME ... FIRST VID OF 2025 LFG!!!

I've been mining and paying the electricity out of pocket, plan to expand perhaps later into the next cycle, and cash out some in this cycle
I agree... I wish I converted more of my crypto profits to btc instead of some of these altcoins that did absolutely nothing price wise!

If you don't mind sharing, what service/business are you using for solar panel installation?
A local installer in my area.
Bro, have you researched ICP?

Nice dude. My 3090s finally picking up some decent salad jobs the last few days.
Im not really familiar with staking. It kind of worries me from a tax reporting perspective.

@RedFoxCrypto Just clicked on your video to start watch it and just wanted to say you got a very cool skateboard. Later
Haha thanks buddy. I love skateboarding. And crypto.
