The two settings that matter most
A custom miner lets you choose power and energy efficiency. These two numbers affect both your potential mining revenue and your electricity cost.
| Setting | Meaning | General effect |
|---|---|---|
| Power, TH/s | Your mining capacity | More power can produce more gross reward, but costs more to buy and maintain. |
| Efficiency, W/TH | Energy used for each TH | A lower value reduces the electricity component for the same power. |
Create and compare a configuration
- 01
Open Create new miner
Sign in, start the new miner flow and choose Custom. The exact location or label may change as the interface is updated.
- 02
Choose a realistic power level
Set the TH/s amount you are actually considering. Avoid starting with the highest possible number just to make the daily reward look larger.
- 03
Compare efficiency
Move between available W/TH options. Note how the purchase price and maintenance estimate change. Lower energy use can cost more upfront.
- 04
Record all current inputs
Write down power, efficiency, price, current hashprice, BTC price and the discount percentage that applies to you.
- 05
Check the calculation independently
Use our rewards calculator with the same inputs. The net result should equal gross revenue minus discounted electricity and service costs.
- 06
Save a comparison link
Select Share calculation. The page creates a URL containing your values, so you can save or compare it without taking a screenshot.
- 07
Review the final purchase screen
Before paying, confirm the miner price, the precise efficiency and any promotional terms in the app itself.
How to compare two miners fairly
Keep BTC price, hashprice and discount identical when comparing configurations. Change only power or efficiency. This isolates the effect of the miner choice instead of mixing it with a different market assumption.
Compare the extra purchase cost with the expected reduction in daily maintenance. A more efficient miner is not automatically the fastest route to recovering your purchase price.
