Watch Miner vs Ant Miner: 24-Hour Comparison

This article presents a 24-hour comparison between two mining machines featured by Crypto Miners India. The test focuses on power consumption, efficiency, earnings, and overall comparison after running both machines together for one full day.

The two miners compared are the Bitmain S19k Pro 120 terahash and the Whats Miner M50s Plus 140 terahash. To make the comparison closer, the S19k Pro is run on high energy mode in an attempt to reach 140 terahash.

Overview of the Test

Both machines were run for 24 hours. The goal was to see the power consumption of both, the efficiency of both, and how much both of them earn. The results were shown after the 24-hour run.

  • Test duration: 24 hours
  • Comparison focus: power consumption, efficiency, earnings
  • Target setup: both machines around 140 terahash

Unboxing and Physical Notes

Unboxing and Physical Notes discussed in the video

The S19k Pro was shown as a simple machine with the internet cable port and two power cord inputs. The Whats Miner M50s Plus box was described as comparatively smaller, but the machine felt slightly heavier.

The Whats Miner unboxing was also described as a first unboxing experience. A correction was made regarding cables: multiple cables were seen because there were multiple units, but each unit comes with a single cable.

Design and Connection Notes

  • S19k Pro has internet cable input and two power cord inputs.
  • Whats Miner comes with a cable.
  • Bitmain does not come with power cords.
  • Whats Miner was described as heavy duty.
  • The power supply on the Whats Miner is on the side.
  • The Whats Miner has four fans, and its design was described as sleek compared to Bitmain.
  • In S19k Pro, two cables are installed.
  • In Whats Miner, only one cable is used.

Test Setup

Test Setup discussed in the video

Both machines were installed with power meters. The purpose of the meters was to measure how much electricity each miner consumed over 24 hours. Ethernet was plugged into both machines, and the setup was prepared for the run.

The test began on June 4th at 10:35 pm. It was later explained that setup and putting the S19k Pro on high energy mode took around 10 to 20 minutes, so the effective comparison reading was taken on June 5th at 10:55 pm.

Power Consumption Results

Power Consumption Results discussed in the video

After 24 hours, the power meter readings showed the following:

  • Whats Miner M50s Plus: 85.69 kW in 24 hours
  • Ant Miner S19k Pro: 91.09 kW in 24 hours

The S19k Pro on high energy mode was summarized as consuming 3791 W per hour. The Whats Miner M50s Plus was summarized as consuming 3570 W. The difference between the two was stated to be around 200 W.

It was also noted that this 200 W difference can build up over several months and create a large difference over time.

Hashrate Performance

Hashrate Performance discussed in the video

Whats Miner M50s Plus

The 24-hour average was around 135 terahash. It was also mentioned that the machine was down for some time in between, but apart from that, it ran properly for 24 hours.

S19k Pro on High Energy Mode

The one-day average was also around 135 terahash. Since this miner is actually a 120 terahash machine and was run on high energy mode, there were spikes and fluctuations.

  • It ran at 125 terahash at times.
  • It went to 161 terahash at times.
  • Sometimes it went up to 200 terahash for a few seconds.
  • After moving up and down, it averaged around 135 to 140 terahash.

Earnings Results

Earnings Results discussed in the video

Whats Miner M50s Plus

The machine generated BTC that was shown as worth about $7 at today’s time. It was explained that the important thing is how much BTC is generated, not the dollar or rupee valuation, because the value changes with the Bitcoin price.

S19k Pro

The S19k Pro earned $6.66 in 24 hours. It was also later summarized as $6.67 in 24 hours.

It was specifically clarified that the earnings mentioned in dollars were actually in USDT, not USD. It was explained that US Dollar and USDT are different, and that in crypto, payment is received according to the USDT price.

Price Comparison

Price Comparison discussed in the video

  • S19k Pro 120 terahash: ₹115,000
  • M50s Plus 140 terahash: ₹145,000

The difference in price between the two miners was stated to be approximately ₹30,000.

Monthly Electricity Estimate

Monthly Electricity Estimate discussed in the video

The video also provided monthly electricity unit estimates based on the observed consumption.

  • S19k Pro on high energy mode: around 2730 units per month
  • M50s Plus 140 terahash: around 2570 units per month

Viewers were told they can multiply these units by their electricity charges to estimate their electricity bill.

Main Takeaways

Main Takeaways discussed in the video

The two major differences highlighted were electricity consumption and price. The Whats Miner M50s Plus consumed less electricity and earned more in the 24-hour test, but it also cost more. The S19k Pro cost less, but in this high energy mode comparison it consumed more electricity and earned slightly less.

It was also emphasized that mining is not for everyone. Buying a miner and running it does not automatically mean profitability. The major requirement mentioned was cheap electricity. If electricity is not cheap where someone lives, then mining may not be suitable unless there is access to a place with cheaper electricity or another power source such as an already installed solar plant.

Mining was described as a complete game of electricity, and viewers were told to calculate accordingly. It was also stated that there are more efficient machines available that can give more earnings on similar electricity.

Availability and Contact

It was said that the S19k Pro 120 terahash and 155 terahash machines were in ready stock, with very few units available. Viewers were asked to call immediately, WhatsApp, or talk to the team for details. It was also stated that machines are available at the best rates across India, and that the company described itself as the biggest distributor in India.

Viewers interested in mining or any mining product were encouraged to contact the team, explore which miners suit their requirements better, and then make a decision. The lines were said to be always open for calls, WhatsApp, DMs, and Instagram contact.
