The Loki Kit by Pivotal Pleb Tech has introduced a new option for crypto miners looking to run various configurations of Bitmain S19 ASIC miners on 120V power. This means home mining for these devices is now possible in the US and other countries using this voltage. The Urlacher, named after LuxOS engineer David Urlacher who first built this configuration, is a triple dashboard Loki Rig with a fully functional Antminer S19k Pro that runs on 120V power at a lower hash rate. The device offers a more straightforward modification that can be quickly applied without disassembling the entire miner or building custom cases.
How The Urlacher Works
The Urlacher functions by running a regular S19k Pro miner with all of its mining boards at a lower operating frequency, allowing for a high hash rate and high efficiency for home mining. It comes with the option to purchase the complete miner with the modification or just the modification kit to apply to an existing miner. Users can also build their miner using a Loki Kit, a Bitmain APW3++ PSU, and other necessary accessories. The Urlacher has a hash rate of 56 TH/s at 1200 Watts power usage and a noise level of 53 dB.
However, different results can be achieved by adjusting the settings within the power capabilities of the power supply. With The Urlacher, crypto miners now have another option to use the 120V power supply at home. The modification offers convenience and ease of use, allowing miners to quickly apply the changes and return the miner to its original form if needed. The device provides a solution for those looking to mine crypto from the comfort of their own homes without the need for specialized equipment or extensive modifications.
