Bitmain Antminer S17+ (73Th)
Professional-Grade Miner
This miner draws 2,920W and produces 75+ dB of noise — it is designed for dedicated mining environments, not living spaces. Professional-grade miners deliver the highest hashrate and revenue per unit but require proper infrastructure: a 240V circuit, adequate ventilation or exhaust ducting, and a space where noise is not a concern (garage, basement, warehouse, or outdoor enclosure).
For home miners looking for a quieter alternative, consider our Bitcoin Space Heater builds or explore open-source miners like the Bitaxe that are purpose-built for residential environments.
Heater-Class Miner
At 2,920W, this miner outputs approximately 9963 BTU/hr of heat — equivalent to a standard electric space heater. Every watt consumed by an ASIC miner is converted to heat with 100% efficiency, making it a space heater that also mines Bitcoin.
During heating season, miner heat can offset part of the heat a room would otherwise need from another electric heater. The economics depend on your electricity rate, room heat demand, BTC price, network difficulty, and noise constraints.
Profitability Calculator
| Period | Revenue | Electricity Cost | Profit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily | $2.01 | $4.91 | $-2.89 |
| Weekly | $14.07 | $34.34 | $-20.26 |
| Monthly | $60.32 | $147.17 | $-86.85 |
| Yearly | $733.91 | $1,790.54 | $-1,056.64 |
Heating offset estimates the value of heat replacing an electric space heater during heating season (~6 months/year in Canada). Actual savings depend on your heating setup and climate.

Custom Power Profiles
With custom firmware like DCENT_OS, this miner can be tuned across a wide range of power levels. Lower wattage improves efficiency and reduces electricity costs; higher wattage increases hashrate at the expense of efficiency.
| Wattage | Hashrate | Efficiency |
|---|---|---|
| 1,700 W | 52 TH/s | 32.7 J/TH |
| 1,800 W | 55 TH/s | 32.7 J/TH |
| 2,050 W | 58 TH/s | 35.3 J/TH |

| 3,900 W | 91 TH/s | 42.9 J/TH |
| 4,150 W | 95 TH/s | 43.7 J/TH |
Actual performance varies by individual unit silicon quality, ambient temperature, and cooling configuration. These operating points are achievable with custom tuning firmware such as DCENT_OS; values are calculated at runtime by the autotuner, not fixed presets.
Home Mining Assessment
The Bitmain Antminer S17+ (73Th) is a SHA-256 cryptocurrency miner manufactured by Bitmain. It delivers a hashrate of 73 TH/s with a power consumption of 2920W, achieving an efficiency of 40 J/TH.
Weighs 11000 kg, measures 175 x 298 x 304mm.
With a home mining score of 22/100, this miner is best suited for dedicated mining spaces for residential use. It produces 9963 BTU/h of heat output, making it effective for supplemental space heating.
At 40 J/TH, the Bitmain Antminer S17+ (73Th) sits in the previous-generation efficiency tier; it runs best where electricity is inexpensive, or as a dual-purpose heat source.
Its waste heat (around 9963 BTU/h) can be ducted into a room, turning money you would otherwise spend on heating into hashrate.
