 It’s always winter somewhere 😉

Then there’s also always dehydrators, water heaters, dryers, etc. we have a long way to go, but I think there are many applications yet to be capitalized on. 
 I can see immersion and water heaters. The air cooled ones will drive me crazy 😆 
 Def need to swap out the fans. They are crazy loud on the stock fans. 
 Guy, you need a HeatMine to pause and resume your s9 space heaters, based on your temperature setpoint.

 Oh snap! I'm working on a thermostat to integrate with my Whatsminers!

How did you get this to work? Got a breakdown of this and how it operates? Would it work with my Whatsminers? 
 Ahhh.  You're using whatsminers.
We have developed this HeatMine to work with stock antminer firmware or braiins (preferred).  I don't have a whatsminers to develop with.
We basically just figured out what apis are available with each firmware and write logic to take advantage (via esp32). 
 Ah damn! Well if you are interested in trying to tackle it let me know. Would love to work with someone to bring this to fruition faster than I could by myself. 🫡 
 Do you have a Home Assistant instance running (spoiler: if you don't, you NEED to)? If so, you can integrate and automate control with this HACS integration.

 I've got a couple converted S9s in @cryptocloaks space heater cases. Got a referral link for HeatMine?
