22° F & 82% humidity. #BlackBox install finished. S19a Pro 110Th ticking like a Swiss pocket watch.
No duct work necessary, just run power & Ethernet. ~40dB from 15ft away. Carpet padding & soundboard liner inside.
Thank you @SGBarbour & the team @upstreamdatainc
The interior was unlined when I received it as the ideal materials are still being determined.
A Whatsminer M31S ran at about 82dB with no liner and the lid open. When the lid was closed, the #BlackBox attenuated the noise by about 24 dB.
I settled on a layer of carpet padding with a layer of sound board on top. On the exhaust side I added a layer of foil tape to the flammable sound board for good measure.
Drilled through the side and mounted a watertight junction box on the outside and an interior junction box on the inside with bolts going through the wall to hold them in place. I used a cork gasket on the outside wall & mounted the outlets on the inside.
I'm thrilled to be the first recipient of the #BlackBox :) Hope this gives you all some food for thought and I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with.
