The Antminer Z9 Mini is outdated. Newer models make Zcash far more cheaply.
The Antminer Z9 Mini produces 10 kSol/s of Equihash hashrate and consumes 300 W, giving an efficiency of 30 J/kSol.
The Antminer Z9 Mini measures about n/a and weighs around 2.1 kg.
The Antminer Z9 Mini is air-cooled with fans. In the UAE we run air-cooled machines in immersion tanks instead, which keeps them cool in desert heat.
We can host the Antminer Z9 Mini in UAE (6.5¢/kWh, 99.3% uptime, immersion), Nigeria (4.5¢/kWh, 73.6% uptime) and Argentina (6.5¢/kWh, 98.7% uptime). The Zcash it mines goes straight to your own wallet.
