How to Use This Calculator

How the result changes with Number of miners

Number of miners: Total mining units to be hosted at the colocation facility.
Power per miner (W): Wall power draw of each miner in watts.
Hosting rate ($/kWh): Hosting facility's electricity rate per kWh. Typical hosting rates: $0.05-$0.08/kWh.
Rack units per miner (U): Rack space each miner occupies in standard rack units (1U = 1.75 inches).
Management fee (%): Percentage fee on electricity costs for facility management, monitoring, and maintenance.
Setup fee per unit ($): One-time setup/installation fee per miner.
Contract length (months): Duration of the hosting contract in months.

Monthly hosting cost ($): Total monthly cost including electricity and management fees.
Cost per miner/month ($): Monthly hosting cost allocated to each miner.
Total power draw (kW): Combined power draw of all miners in kilowatts.
Monthly electricity ($): Raw electricity cost per month.
Monthly management fee ($): Monthly management/maintenance fee.
Total setup fee ($): One-time setup costs for all miners.
Total contract cost ($): Total cost over the full contract including setup and monthly fees.
Effective rate ($/kWh): All-in cost per kWh including management fees.
Racks needed (42U): Number of standard 42U racks required.

Identify Input Parameters
4 parameters
Number of miners = 10, Power per miner (W) = 3250, Hosting rate ($/kWh) = 0.065, Rack units per miner (U) = 4 = 7 input(s) provided
Calculate Monthly hosting cost
Monthly hosting cost = monthlyElectricity + managementFee
1597.05 = $1,597.05
Calculate Cost per miner/month
Cost per miner/month = monthlyTotal / numMiners
159.7 = $159.7
Calculate Total power draw
Total power draw = (numMiners * powerPerMiner) / 1000
32.5 = 32.5
Calculate Monthly electricity
Monthly electricity = monthlyKwh * hostingRateKwh
1521 = $1,521
