Close your eyes and imagine a container with mining equipment. What do you feel, what is happening around you? 🎧 Probably the first thing that comes to mind is noise. And, of course, you'd be right. We are already preparing a separate post about how deafening miners can be, but now we suggest switching to other sensations. 🌡️Most likely, you will remember that ASICs produce a huge amount of heat. It's never cold in containers, even in the chilliest of climes. In winter, this is the most comfortable place to work. 💡What else? Perhaps you imagine the constant clicking of toggle switches and the flashing of multicolored light bulbs that light up day and night? 🌬️Have you thought about it also being very windy inside containers? In addition to the main fan cooling the room, the ASICs themselves create a rather serious airflow. The Antminer S19 alone drives about 700 cubic meters of air through itself per hour, while WhatsMiners lag a little behind. They pass about 560 cubic meters per hour. 🌪️Given the number of miners in each container, it's not difficult to imagine how strong the wind is inside. So now, when you think about the situation inside the container, you will know that it is certainly far from being a wind tunnel, but a place where you'll have to hang onto your hat.
