I have a technical question for experienced BTC miners.
I am planning to install a small hydro-power generator that could give me max 1000W with 220V.
What miner you know it will function properly in these 1000W ?
No other appliances will be connected to this generator.

Your best bet might be finding a hobby mining rig like the Avalon Mini 3. The only low power industrial miners in that range are 2017 era: https://hashrateindex.com/rigs.

oh cool, avalon mini is also a heater and under 1000W !
This could be a real deal for my little house in the mountains.
Thanks for advice!

I really like my little Avalon 3s. Now I have my eye on the q, but that's 1674 watts. I wish I could do hydro power. This is for the citadel?

yes. the house is almost done so I need to focus on electricity / heating / mining now.
I have that creek next to me, so I have to take advantage of that free energy and firstly heat the house and then why not mine some sats, no?
But I am limited to a small hydro generator of max 1000W because there's no such big water debit for a more powerful motor.
So I was thinking to put 2 generators, one for the miner and one for the rest of the appliances.

The Q in "eco" mode is around 800w... the ethernet connection is a big + to avoid network issues and be more compatible with common hardware (router/sat disc/etc).

Loki rigs will come in around the 800-1000w mark. Avalon Q has some power modes for under 1000w.
Else it’s just stacking nano3s or the like.
