Antminer L9Scrypt16 Gh/s3,360 W$8.40$0.25$0.10/kWh

How to choose

Compare the break-even electricity rate with your actual tariff. Then check purchase price, delivery, cooling, noise and warranty with the seller. Payback depends on future difficulty, rewards and coin prices; a present-day income estimate is not a fixed return.
