Hi all.
I have been mining altcoins for quite a while now. I have 3.9KW of solar poweron the house but no battery storage, so I manually turn rigs on based on when I am generating extra power. I get this info via a Wattson meter that monitors incoming power and solar output.A few rigs stay on permanently and make a few pennies every day.
I'd like to know, from those of you who mine on solar, how you overcome the sudden switching off of the rig. If you're on batteries, then do you trigger the shutdown of the rigs when approaching low capacity?
Finally, I may build a new system to test things out using some 250W solar panels and build abattery powerwall later on. Any suggestions for hardware that is currently a good buy and efficient? If it helps,I'm based in the UK and any electrical workandsetting up ofcomputer hardware/software are no problem.
I read hbpowerwall's threads on solar mining and his setuplooked impressive.
@hbpowerwall - Do you still run that solar miningrig and what would you buy now if starting from scratch?
Thanks in advance.
