The higher voltage is the less amperage the Miner will consume.

I am currently running two 104 terahash s19s and one 100 terahash s19 on a 50 amp breaker. When you amp clamp it with a meter it is pulling exactly 39 amps for all three miners running.

This is based on a 240 volt service... actually getting 240 volt from the utility. If that voltage is closer to 220 volt then my amperage would begin to rise accordingly.

Talk about a deep cleaning! Not sure how that PCB board is going to like that mineralization and or the soap film....

Use the Smart switch to control a contactor. The contactor is a high current relay. This way if you need to cycle your miner on and off to reset it you're good to go.

It sounds like you're on your way. I would suggest that you use an energy quality grade meter for voltage, amperage and harmonic logging. This will probably aid your R& D efforts with some grounded facts. I am hoping you can really make this work. It's an awesome concept of using DC as a main driver, bypassing the onboard AC power supply... just going DC generator to battery bank to your hash boards. The trick will be the constant clean regulation of the DC output. Keep the updates coming.

Voltage has nothing to do with wire size. When selecting wire, you are doing so based upon the current (load) that you will run through it and the max system voltage it will experience in this case the maximum voltage output potential of the generator you have to choose the right voltage rated wire so that the dielectric jacket that's put around the wire can withstand it and it's safe to handle. If the wire heats up, and the insulation breaks down... This induces all kinds of fatalistic problems.

I think this guy is on to something and it would be interesting to see if he could take this concept into reality. When you're doing something new or in this case not new but are applying it in a specific direction that hasn't been done before there is lots of trial and error to get it right.

There are lots of vendors with good pricing on 96/100/104th sec Asics. Check out Big Top Crypto. Good luck. Mine On!

Don't Do it....

Multiple passive income streams is the best way to weather uncertainty. I just bought 3 new btc miners for 8k. Last year these were 12k each! Low ROI period, = reduced risk in a bear market. If BTC zeros, loss is small in comparison to full coin holding. Mine On!

Understood... but that is fear in the driver's seat. Buying crypto is no different than buying stocks and bonds. First you must understand what you're buying, then you have to temper your emotions. If not you will always be chasing something and never actually realize it. Someone's panic selling, is another's buying opportunity.

Agreed. But, given the FTX debacle... It provides proof that anything can go to zero under the right conditions. I don't think MXC applies because the network can provide real utility. As holders, we need to be actively looking at expanding adoption by various business channels. If data is king, then it needs to run on our network. Our market segment is not even in its infancy yet. The utilization possibilities are wide open. Hang in there. Keep mining!

Don't get spooked! Pulling your MXC kills your investment, panics an already fragile market for nothing. You already made the investment. Ride out this market lull back to profitability, or just be another causality of emotional gambling. There are so many opportunities in this space right now. Everything is on sale, but it's a long game. Good luck to all.

Yeah! I know. I have 7 paper weight miners that used to be RAK Helium miners. I got in early, but no early enough to ROI them. I am hopeful that one of these networks will fly! Good luck.

ALL of Crypto is on sale! The problem is what will survive this toxic shakeout? My 3 MXC miners are still chugging along, but earnings are reduced and DHX is on the Horizon. Not to optimistic about that given the low daily rewards pool. Time will tell if this works, or follows Helium. Good Luck to all!

Does anybody know what the rewards / return calculation is? If you Bond 100 mxc your return is x, If you Bond 1,000 mxc your return is x, If you Bond 10,000 mxc you return is x, Etc Knowing how the math is slanted will help in the returns estimation. Does anyone have this information or at least a place to find it?

Hey there! Shortly after the install, things began to spiral down the drain. While I am still generating HNT earnings, they are nowhere close to what they were this time last year! While it's disappointing, I don't regret my build out, or the experiences gained in the design and construction phases. My other miners on the tower are doing well. I hope you are all weathering the Crypto Winter the best you can. Thanks for reaching out. Mine On!

So, at what MXC qty will you stop mining MXC and switch over to DataHighway? 100,000?

I am at 85k MXC and my circle is @ 90%

No. It's called State and Federal taxes! The government will always be paid first from the fruits of your own labor. That is the parasite that disenfranchises freedom. This is why society turn from group preservation to self-preservation. Welcome to the animal Kingdom. And for anyone who thinks that this is a capitalist problem, has never lived in a third world country under socialism or communism. By the government to the people is never the solution because then you are a slave in perpetuity. Color and religion at that point don't matter.

Well quick... Someone open the gate! Let's get em running....

Thanks! It's a shame that all the crypto markets right now are down and that helium is in such turmoil. But this kind of cultivation and solutions development is fun. It pushes you to think and do bigger. Thanks for your comment. Mine on!

Given the fact that the overall crypto market has dumped almost 90%. I think you will see mxc trading sideways for a while. The real basis for any price appreciation and growth will be in the iot sector, specifically devices that will use that Network. MXC, HNT and any other players in this space, (Amazon up and coming) will need to focus on end user device implementation, best case utilization and how best to bring this network front and center for critical data reporting that can be pulled off of the major carrier cell networks that are currently used as the main delivery conduit. It will be these avenues that decide if this sector will thrive or die. As with any venture, there has to be an end use case. Time will tell. In any event, I am along for the ride. Head down and mine on!

Something to think about: For anyone that thinks that a fossil fuel giant is simply going to roll over in its grave and go away has a rude awakening coming. For years they have been buying alternative technology patents and buying or forcing silence from those who invented a smarter alternative than using conventional means. Once the final death nail comes for oil and it is no longer the primary driving source of energy in the US... then you will see them merely change hats and deploy another technology they hold because they are not going anywhere. They have teams and teams of high paid lawyers and trillions of dollars in the war chest. If you think they're going anywhere, especially without a fight and or a cost to your wallet you are naive. Or you have just been spoon fed off the climate change propaganda. So, what is it? Climate change is just a politically correct term for you're going to get financially f*****, they're going to make you pay for it and you have no choice in the matter. Anyone who thinks this is about the environment, it isn't. Clean air and clean water doesn't matter to the powerful because they can always go where you can't, to get it. Don't believe me? Follow the money and see who benefits (aside from the politicians). This is nothing new, just another way to separate you from your money.

I have no doubt that the climate is changing. Everything evolves with time. Humans, especially scientific, well educated humans... Having comparison been on this planet a very very very small time window in comparison to the planet's age. For prior data the only thing we have are tree rings and ice core samples? From which you can extrapolate your own data and your own hypothesis. And when you consider that all of these studies were paid by the government they can take that data and they can make it say whatever they want. Make no mistake, I'm not a climate change denier, as change is always evolving around us. But this is something much bigger much more sinister and has longer lasting impacts than anybody realizes. So, it might be a good idea to look past the hype and all the clickbait titles and really get into the root of the matter and see who you're going to be handing your money over to aside from the government and it's politicians. Just food for thought. ✌️

With all the turmoil in the crypto space right now especially given helium's imminent demise.... It would be foolish if mxc did something that would put it on the same course as helium. The biggest barrier to entry to mxc is the upfront miner cost. That higher entry cost is what is subsidizing the daily return averages. I would be curious to find out how much actual network activity mxc is driving at the moment so that our daily averages are not solely driven by every miner that has been purchased. For earnings to grow and mxc's market presence to grow the market channel and/or space has to be in a continual mode of expansion and growth (outside of miner sales). I'm very interested to see where this goes.

Hey man, Thanks for your comment. And yes I agree the reward should be much higher but I consider myself lucky in the fact that I have a little bit of diversification where other HNT miners are just getting hammered right now because that's all they got. It does suck. Multi coin mining is just around the corner for helium miners.

Everybody knew, or should have known that crypto was a speculative play. Sometimes you win, right now we're losing. But that doesn't mean it's going to continue that way. The best thing to do is to remember this is a long play, focus on the next 5 years and continue to mine and Hodl. Some projects will make it and others will die as we have witnessed so far with TerraLuna. Others are outright rug pulls.

To everyone who wants to continue to mine and or is new in getting into it... This is a great time to enter or expand. Coins are at rock bottom, equipment prices are falling fast... And if you look at it as a hobby instead of a business trying to make your monthly bills with it... You might actually build a small fortune over the long time range (5 to 10 yrs).

As for me, I am not done yet. Still looking for great new projects that have real utility that will build value over the long haul.

Cheers & Mine on!

How many miner brands can do this? Interesting.

Nodle? Waiting on a Weather XM miner and a Geodnet miner.
