Canaan Avalon Q
Quick answer
The Canaan Avalon Q is a Bitcoin miner rated about 90 TH/s at roughly 1,674 W (about 18.6 J/TH). An industrial-class unit — loud and power-hungry, best suited to a dedicated mining space, not living areas.
Professional-Grade Miner
This miner draws 1,674W and produces 45 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 1,674W, this miner outputs approximately 5712 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.

| Period | Revenue | Electricity Cost | Profit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily | $2.88 | $2.81 | $0.07 |
| Weekly | $20.15 | $19.69 | $0.46 |
| Monthly | $86.34 | $84.37 | $1.97 |
| Yearly | $1,050.50 | $1,026.50 | $24.00 |
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.
