Question about mining
I live in very large house where my landlord also runs a salon in it which guzzles up more electricity during the day than at night (seen his bills).
My rent is also inclusive of all bills as well so no fluctuations on how much I pay.
Realistically, how much energy does mining use up if I were to attempt to mine a decent amount of ethereum per month? dont really want him to catch wind of what I'm doing
I also only own a laptop but have been thinking about purchasing a desktop. Would I be better off getting a mining rig or get a desktop pc? I don't play any games and I work from home sometimes which only requires me to use excel so I wouldn't use it for anything else other than mining. worth getting just the rig and selling it off if he catches me?
Thanks

I produce about .25 ether for day for 96 kWh per day (4 kWh draw continuous).
Your landlord will notice two things: a giant power bill AND a really hot salon.

you could mine only at night which will reduce electricity costs. (electricity is cheaper at night)

I live in military accommodation and own a laptop. No electricity bills.
Can I capitalise on this?

what type of miner are you using?

literally google "ethereum mining calculator power" and you'll be able to select from a few congfigs and see the draw in mW. Then multiply by your cuckletricity supply costs, and you'll know how much it will cost him.
You can get away with a 5 gpu card rig ez, but anything more than that will probably attract suspition. Electricity is cheaper at night too.

A bit too late there buddy. There are literally no AMD GPUs on the market right now and the ones that are are being sold insanely overpriced.
You can try getting some new nvdia cards but they're shit at Ethereum mining.

Hi! I have an iPhone, can I use it to mine some EHT? The electricity is free.

30 Mh/s on my 1070 ain't bad
Just taking advantage of the gaming rig I built last year for an extra $60 a month, I'll take it.
