Might be too much considering there are only about 5 of us active in this thread, how many can I put you down for? - 40?

Tried a bit of other side of mining as well renting a rig myself on MRR and mining some Bytecoin. It would have been cheaper to do it myself but for the sake of experience 0.00043920 BTC is not much, that should earn me about 500 BCN in 3 hours worth 0.000295 BTC. I will have a look at using NiceHash to mine as well. Just having a look at the infrastructure from different angles and getting more informed to better utilise my resources.

It's almost New Year, so I thought I could reference an article I just read.
How to heat the house with cryptocurrency miners  https://thenextweb.com/hardfork/2017...hereum-heater/

Since I've had mine running we've noticed that some rooms in the house have become noticeably colder as the heating isn't turning on as much any more due to the living room (where the thermostat is) being warmed up by the rig
 I need an asic machine to heat the bathroom now

That's a pretty neat heater-miner
 It reminds me of this article I read a while ago: https://news.bitcoin.com/ukraine-hot...bitcoin-miner/ There you go MJ, that'll heat your bathroom!  My house is toasty warm now (a little too warm if anything), despite having the heating switched off and near-freezing temperatures outside ... all thanks to about a dozen GPUs and 4 Antminers (soon to be 5).

Yeah that'd work
I'm sure it would be possible to make something similar from an Antminer type machine too - one big waterblock per board, plumbed in to a common water system, then you can move the heat wherever you want it.I'd like a couple of R4s to heat kitchen too, but they never come up for sale at sensible prices. I've been wondering about watercooling the Vegas but they're doing ok in the airing cupboard
