I haven't ran mine yet this season. I don't know if I'm going to either. I need to figure out if it's worth it based on the current price, difficulty, and rewards. 

 This will be the first I’ve turned them on since the halving. I’m working from home today so my office needs warmed up anyways lol. I have 20k sats stuck waiting for payout from last season. Hopefully they allow LN payouts at some point. 

 Which pool are you using? Braiins allows it, so does Ocean, but Ocean has a high limit. It used to be around 1M sats. I'm not sure if that's still the case. 

 1. Set up npub
2. Withdraw to npub.cash nostr address
3. Claim with ecash wallet and transfer to lightning 

 You can use lightning payouts with Ocean too. You have to set up a bolt-12 invoice. I have my sats transferred to my node every found block. 

 Yep. I used it once. Works well. 

 The S9 doesn’t do much for sats any more. But the room my office is in doesn’t have heat at all so I have to run something. This at least pulls less watts than a ceramic heater and I get a little trickle of sats. 

 If it's less watts than another heater then it makes sense to do it. 

 I woke up too warm this morning from my #s9 #miner cranking last night. I set it at too high a wattage for the anticipated overnight low temps. I'm still learning.

 But I also wish that braiins firmware didn't suck so much and could allow dynamic power adjustments.  

 It’s a work in process. There is a new Braiins Manager section which wasn’t there last year, haven’t played with it yet. 

 I haven't bothered to see if there's new firmware yet, but gosh, the control methodology is awful. It would never fly in any automotive control systems, which I am much more familiar with, and even by modern 3D printing standards.  

 Yup!! Same
