    #BitcoinWaterHeater - Replace a water heater with heat of miners - Proofing that a this uses the exact same energy as a normal water heater (or with minimal losses) - Documenting as much as possible (Data, Videos, Parts) - Open Source every code written - Get paid to shower 💰🚿

    #bitcoin Miner #Airstream heater build 🧵 Of course main question is: why even bother? 1. Heaters in RVs are propane based and can be a bit finicky (not work at all) 2. They are even on or off, creating temperature swings 3. If you are out of propane you are out of heat. 1/16

    People have been asking how to prep miners for submersion. I've just added a second S9 to the #bitcoinwaterheater, so I used the opportunity to take some photos and videos on the process for 4x S9. Step 1: disassemble the miners - yes some of them are filthy...
