Excluding the miner you're salvaging hashboards from, you can build one for ~$500.
Jua Kali is an open-source project designed to run Bitcoin ASIC hashboards on direct DC power, such as from solar panels or batteries. This project provides the necessary hardware and software to create a more resilient and off-grid Bitcoin mining setup.
- Direct DC Power: Run ASIC hashboards directly from DC power sources like solar panels or batteries, eliminating the need for AC-DC power supplies.
- Modular Design: The system is composed of distinct hardware and software components, allowing for flexibility and customization.
- Open Source: All hardware and software designs are open source, encouraging community contributions and innovation.
- Web-Based Monitoring: A user-friendly web interface provides real-time monitoring of your miner's performance.
Short ~podcasts discussing the project:
I run a lucky miner and Avalon Nano3 off DC 24 volt solar system.
It doesn't require any complex circuitry.
Just a 24-12 volt converter for the Lucky miner and a PD3 converter for the Nano3.
