I’m about 10years behind the times with my Home Assistant tinkering, maybe in another 10years I’ll be tinkering with one of those AI agent server things

Swapped out the s9 in my ventilation system for a NerdQAxe Hydro rev 6. Pretty simple swap, just used the same duct adapters from the s9 either side of the radiator. Now getting the same heat input but over 5x the hash rate image

Right, nerdaxeq++ rev6 hydro purchased. Hopefully that sorts out the foibles of the DIY PIV unit making it quieter, a bit less sketchy and way more efficient hash rate wise. Here’s a diagram of how PIV works, I’m just using a miner as the heating element instead of an off the shelf unit that uses a ceramic heater… the idea is to increase ventilation and reduce humidity/damp/mould in my old stone walled house. #heatpunk image

A belated Happy New Year nostr! I’m starting off the year with a heat punk experiment, attempting a DIY positive input ventilation system with an S9 for heating. If you haven’t heard of PIV systems before, it’s basically a fan blowing air from the loft into the house creating positive pressure. In theory this helps reduce damp issues in old houses by reversing drafts and reducing humidity. The water heating project with the S19 is on the back burner while I find a heating engineer

Trying out some plastering today. Sticking the boards to the wall was the easy bit, skimming it tomorrow is gonna be interesting! image

It’s amazing how lucky we are in the UK, you can pay £15k for solar pv and a battery and you’ll be privileged enough to pay the same for electricity as you did all those years ago in 2021

Just acquired an S19. Plan is to use it to add some kWs to the heating system. Any heat punks on nostr #asknostr

GM, soaking up the rays today and contemplating how we’ll ever financially recover from this devastating 10% drawdown #catstr image

If you liked the Dune films, there's a new HBO series out Dune: Prophecy and it's awesome. First episode is the length of a short film and a great start to the story, looking forward to the next one!
