StellarStoic on Nostr: The last 2 weeks my #Bitaxe miner hit the high temperature levels, stopped hashing ...
The last 2 weeks my #Bitaxe miner hit the high temperature levels, stopped hashing and then waiting for me to reboot it. Then it worked through the night and somewhere in the midday stopped hashing again.
The reason was not in the firmware nor the miner but the heatwave we have at our place right now.
The default frequency and voltage was overheating when there was ~35°C outside, and around ~30°C inside where the miner is stationed.
I lowered the frequency and the voltage to minimum as I could and now it hashing constantly without getting overheated.
I'll get back all that lost hashpower in the winter months anyway ❄️ 😆
