Where could someone source a antminer s9 with PSU?
I'm moving to a new place that could really benefit from a 1000-1500w miner heater

In case anyone is thinking of buying this heavily promoted garbage, The HeatBit:

Looks like their older model. I wonder if the same complaints are valid for the new model. It's definitely not profitable or anything but more of a show piece
Wow those are way more efficient than an s9
I haven't seen any long term or independent reviews of the new model. Given the history, I have no trust in the company.
From what I remember the Bitcoin is not mined directly to your wallet, but held captive behind their web portal. KYC? Counterparty risk. Not open source. Parts availability? This was more than enough to make it a no for me, dawg.
There's also this, which may be the most efficient. It is closed source firmware, proprietary mobile app required, probably cloud services dependency..

That's crazy!
A friend of mine runs one of these, I was going to ask him about his hands on experience with it so far. Might be a decent option
FWIW the "Avalon Family" app requires Google Play Services, but has no known trackers according to Aurora Store.
