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?
reply
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).

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.
