Success! 🥳🤯 With help of the amazing guide by @PivotalPlebTech & inspiration by @altair_tech I’ve modified an APW12 Bitmain PSU to run on 120v for home pleb mining! Just slip it into your chassis & remove the 240v & your hashing. The 120v limits you to about 50% of the ASIC capacity but it’s native 120v without the need for any LOKI adapter kits! Anyone need one? image

Just got back from vacation & back to work building some SLIM19 LOKI heaters for any #Bitcoiner in #Vancouver looking for one. Bitcoin Slim19 Heater preassembled Slim19 Antminer S19JPro (BHB42601) | 28.5TH/s | ~750W | 26 j/T | 120V | 52db | Base Price: $650 🇨🇦 local only - Bitcoin preferred (sorry don't want the hassle of shipping) What's included: ---------------------------------------- 1x Slim19 Antminer S19JPro (BHB42601) 32TH/s 1x Loki Lite kit (for 120v) 1x Bitmain APW3++ PSU (12 - 12.5v) unmodified 2x 4AWG power cables for use up to 1200w (suggested maximum for 15amp) About this item: ---------------------------------------- The Slim19 is a retrofit that recycles the stock Bitmain aluminum housing and a single hashboard paired with APW3++ PSU so you can operate on 120V. The airflow design only requires 2 fans operating at 50% to achieve that target hashrate. This results in a compact, sound attenuated, Bitcoin miner that can serve as a space heater safely on North American residential outlets where a standard load already exists. EXTREME 30TH/s 930w HIGH-POWER 28TH/s 790w LOW-POWER 21TH/s 592w Colours available: ---------------------------------------- Black, Navy Blue, Translucent Orange The inserts are 3d printed with BambuLab ABS high temperature filament rate for heat deflection to 87c. The translucent Bitcoin Orange is PETG rated to 69c. ABS is recommended if planning to run at 1200w. Optional Upgrades: ---------------------------------------- +$50 - Spare set of stock fans +$50 - APW3++ PSU modified to 13.6v for more TH/s up to 1200w (recommended maximum) +$50 - PSU Noctua NF-A6x25 FLX, Premium Quiet Fan, 3-Pin (60mm, Brown) +$80 - GELID fan upgrade from stock +$100 - WiFi adapter +$150 - S19J Pro+ 122TH/s board (40TH/s) +$200 - spare BHB42601 hashboard (for future use) @BTC Sessions @npub1th5g...mnel

Well, I never thought I'd see this day coming as a #HeatPunk My wife, who is always cold especially during winter in 🇨🇦, says our home is too hot! Here I am building more S19 series LOKI heaters & she is too hot at only 150TH/s solo mining 🤦‍♂️

@SatStackingPleb @Toine @IxTech @Solosatoshi.com 🇺🇸 Decided to do this rather than from the fan port for the 12v power to the Vonets wifi adapter off the control board. These Vonets handle between 5-24v depending on the model but usually range 5-15v without the need for a step-down adapter. Feeds power directly from the 6-pin socket on the bottom. What do you think? Anyone see any issue with doing this on LOKI builds?

Uggg, #Bitcoin #HeatPunk life. Accidentally ripped a pad off my Loki Lite @PivotalPlebTech kit trying to test a different board. Guess that socket was a little snug - this has never happened before. Guess I know what I want for Christmas 🎄 😅 to fix my bench testing unit. image

Added a new washable 1” air filter to my #Bitaxe Gamma. Keeps the gamma pristine with a minuscule reduction of airflow. White PLA helps easily detect cleaning cycles Adding additional filters to my other solo miners today.

Next AntMiner S19J Pro+ #Bitcoin LOKI heater incoming for this 🇨🇦 #HeatPunk Printed with @BambulabGlobal Navy Blue ABS filament paired with White Arctic P12 Max fans. I have to say, this navy blue build looks refined & stylish compared to my regular black boxes. A few more hours of printing, some cable work & PSU upgrades & it’s ready. Another 25-30 TH/s of solo mining incoming. Thanks to @tylerkstevens & @SpaceDenver crew for the encouragement & inspiration.

Newest #Bitcoin AntMiner S19J Pro+ #HeatPunk LOKI space heater! Built custom for my 85 year old dad to upgrade from his S9 space heater. He wanted something small, quiet & powerful. Printed with #BambulabGlobal ABS filament. Tuned down to only 650w (since his home has limited power & amps) but making ~19 TH/s (still tuning performance on LuxOS Thanks to Altair & PivotalPlebTech for the parts & @Toine for the inspiration.

Just rescued this little @npub16xch...tgyj #Bitaxe gamma 601 from a local pleb that didn't want it for only $91 🇺🇸 - didn't have the heart to see it wasted. Added another 1.2+ TH/s to solo mining to my @Umbrel ☂️ #Bitcoin node tonight & finally solo (lottery) mining over 50TH/s Zero TH/s = Zero Chance image

Bitcoiners, It’s at the point now that we all need to consider the following: #1 self-custodial spending wallet with both sats & BTC like @AQUA Wallet @Wallet of Satoshi or @BULL BITCOIN (even better with in-app atomic swaps to LiquidBTC & USDT). #2 small travel wallet like @Tangem - a common form factor (card) that isn’t noticeable or trigger questions from Immigration officials (unlike common dedicated mainstream hardware wallets). Low key OPsec but still protected. #3 known KYC hardware wallet that all exchange purchases, sales & activities which are subject to capital gains tax & reporting. (address declared & known to authorities) #4 completely segregated non-KYC wallet that never has sats or on-chain BTC mixed from your other wallets. This is a mining hardware wallet, a peer-to-peer bitcoin receiving wallet. You should enforce plausible deniability on it. Have a decoy number of transactions & balance without a passphrase - just seed. Under duress people can access the limited (sub 0.1 worth of bitcoin). On the same hardware wallet & seed phrase a hidden passphrase wallet with your bag Just stuff I’m thinking about. As the value of Bitcoin climes & tax authorities coming knocking, you don’t want to mix KYC & non-KYC sats IMO. What do you think?
