FFMiner DS19
Quick answer
The FFMiner DS19 is a Blake256r14 miner rated about 3.1 TH/s at roughly 980 W. An industrial-class unit — loud and power-hungry, best suited to a dedicated mining space, not living areas.
Heater-Class Miner
At 980W, this miner outputs approximately 3344 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 | $0.10 | $1.65 | $-1.55 |
| Weekly | $0.69 | $11.52 | $-10.84 |
| Monthly | $2.95 | $49.39 | $-46.44 |
| Yearly | $35.87 | $600.94 | $-565.06 |
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.

Home Mining Assessment
The FFMiner DS19 is a Blake256r14 cryptocurrency miner manufactured by FFMiner. It delivers a hashrate of 3.1 TH/s with a power consumption of 980W, achieving an efficiency of 316.1 J/TH.
Measures 130 x 170 x 330mm.
With a home mining score of 22/100, this miner is best suited for dedicated mining spaces for residential use. It produces 3344 BTU/h of heat output, making it suitable for supplemental space heating.
At 316.1 J/TH, the FFMiner DS19 sits in the legacy efficiency tier, so it is most economical run as a space heater or for hobby and learning setups rather than for pure profit.
Its waste heat (around 3344 BTU/h) can be ducted into a room, turning money you would otherwise spend on heating into hashrate.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the current mining economics for the FFMiner DS19?
At $0.07/kWh, the FFMiner DS19 currently shows an estimated daily net cost of $1.55 before pool fees and hardware cost. Lower electricity rates, network changes, BTC price changes, or useful heat recovery can change the result.
Can I mine Bitcoin at home with the FFMiner DS19?
The FFMiner DS19 has a home mining score of 22/100. With 0 dB noise and 980W power draw, it may require a dedicated space like a garage, basement, or outdoor enclosure. Consider noise insulation and proper ventilation.
Can the FFMiner DS19 heat my home?
The FFMiner DS19 outputs approximately 3344 BTU/hr of heat. For reference, a typical space heater produces 5,000-5,500 BTU/hr. All electrical energy consumed by the miner is converted to heat, making it 100% efficient as a heater. D-Central offers Bitcoin Space Heater builds designed specifically for home heating integration.
What power supply does the FFMiner DS19 need?
The FFMiner DS19 draws 980W of power. You need a power supply rated for at least 1,078W with appropriate voltage (200-240V AC). D-Central stocks compatible power supplies in our shop. Always use a quality PSU from a reputable manufacturer to protect the miner and wiring.
