Months of rewiring the bus chassis is finally done.
All built in ignition shutoff safety’s have been bypassed/removed.
Before I rewired it all, I had a phantom drain and the batteries would die in 1-2 days; now she fires right up after sitting for 4 weeks.
🚌 build progress.

It’s so wild to me that I’m essentially building a luxury apartment on wheels that will mine Bitcoin.
Fuck a bug-out bag, Ima have a bug-out house.
We dubbed it “BlackBird Skoolie” and I maybe finalized the “logo” today for it.
Serious progress on solar reconfig: system back online and 4/5 arrays connected tonight.
840AH of battery and 4kw of panels.
Gonna be glued to the numbers tomorrow I already know it. Well that’s a lie, I’ll be too busy ripping windows out of the bus.
The love of my life asked “can I steal the new miner for the salon today?”
The answer was yes ofc. It got cold last night after shutting down 2 of the basement installed [heaters] last week and she needs a warmer room to process hair color correctly.

S19J Pro with @CryoByteLabs block installed and utilizing 2x 240mm rads all mounted on a modified mine4heat.com aluminum extrusion and powered by a 120v modded APW12. /// Yes it is quite the quiet circuit breaker ///
Bus updates from yesterday.
Small picks at electrical while I have the dash out again and my love does some body work to the rear door surfaces that will remain exposed.
