- iBeLink BM-KS Max 3% more heat output (11,601 vs 11,260 BTU/hr)
Cost & ROI Over Time
Hardware cost is only half the story — here is how each miner's upfront price plays out against cumulative profit at a $0.10/kWh rate.
| iBeLink BM-KS Max | Metric | iBeLink BM-N3 Max |
|---|---|---|
| $1,799 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | — |
| -$7.76 | Daily net profit | -$6.84 |
| -$4,633 | Net after 1 year | -$2,497 |
| -$7,467 | Net after 2 years | -$4,994 |
| -$10,301 | Net after 3 years | -$7,491 |
| Does not pay back at current rates (negative daily profit) | Payback period | — |
Projections assume continuous operation, a flat $0.10/kWh rate, and no hardware degradation, pool fees, or BTC price change. Real-world ROI varies.
