Why the Avalon Q Wins
1. Three Power Modes = Three Use Cases
Most miners force you into a binary choice: industrial power or nothing. The Avalon Q gives you flexibility:
- Eco Mode (54 TH/s, 800W): Plug into any standard outlet. Perfect for testing or locations where you can’t run dedicated circuits.
- Standard Mode (72 TH/s, 1,300W): Single 15A circuit. Most home miners’ sweet spot.
- Maximum Mode (90 TH/s, 1,674W): Needs a 20A dedicated circuit. For operators ready to scale.
You start in Eco, scale to Standard as your electricity situation allows, then max out if you add a circuit. No hardware change needed.
2. Efficiency That Matters
At 18.6 J/TH, the Avalon Q burns less power per unit of hashrate than nearly every competing miner. This matters when bitcoin is in a bear market and electricity costs kill margins. Lower power consumption = longer runway in a bear cycle.
3. No Tariff Overhead
We ship from Colorado with no tariff pass-through. Most online retailers add 25-35% to cover import duties. At $1,499.99, we’re $100-200+ cheaper than major resellers.
4. Solo Mining Ready
The Avalon Q is engineered for operators who want to mine solo blocks and earn the full 6.25 BTC reward, not share with pools. It has native support for Stratum V2, the new mining protocol that gives solo miners real advantages against pools.

Power Mode Comparison: Find Your Setup
| Mode | Hashrate | Power Draw | Circuit Needed | Noise | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eco | 54 TH/s | 800W | Standard 15A outlet | ~45 dB | Testing, no circuit upgrade, living rooms |
| Standard | 72 TH/s | 1,300W | Dedicated 15A circuit | ~55 dB | Home miners, basements, dedicated mining rooms |
| Maximum | 90 TH/s | 1,674W | Dedicated 20A circuit | ~65 dB | Multi-unit farms, commercial operations, scale-ready |
Pro Tip: If your breaker box isn’t equipped for a 20A circuit, the Standard 72 TH/s mode gives you 80% of maximum hashrate with a standard 15A setup. Most home miners operate here.

Real-World Performance & Profitability
Hashrate vs. Electricity Cost
Your profit depends on two things: your hashrate and your electricity rate.
- At $0.10/kWh (US average): Standard mode (72 TH/s, 1,300W) = ~$40-50/month profit in current market
- At $0.07/kWh (cheap region): Standard mode = ~$80-120/month profit
- At $0.15/kWh (California, expensive): Standard mode = -$10 to +$10/month (break-even or slight loss)
The Avalon Q’s 18.6 J/TH efficiency means you’re burning fewer kWh per TH than competitors. Over 12 months, this adds up to $500-1000+ in electricity savings.
Solo Mining vs. Pool Mining
At 72 TH/s in Standard mode, you’ll find a solo block roughly every 45-60 days (depending on network hashrate). When you do, you get 6.25 BTC (~$280,000 at current prices) minus pool fees ($0). Compare that to pool mining: same hashrate, $40/month profit, but no block rewards.
Bottom line: Pool mining is steady income. Solo mining is lottery-style, but the payout is massive. The Avalon Q is built for miners willing to play both games.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will it work in my apartment/home?
A: Probably. Eco mode (800W) plugs into any outlet. Standard mode needs a dedicated 15A circuit (like for a space heater). Maximum mode needs 20A. Check your breaker panel. If you’re unsure, start in Eco and upgrade circuits if needed.
Q: How loud is it really?
A: Eco mode is 45 dB (whisper-quiet, like a refrigerator). Standard mode is ~55 dB (like normal conversation). Maximum mode is ~65 dB (noticeable, like an office AC unit). Basements and dedicated rooms are ideal. Bedrooms, not so much.
Q: What’s my breakeven point?
A: At $0.12/kWh electricity, Standard mode breaks even in roughly 18-24 months if bitcoin price holds steady. At $0.07/kWh, you’re profitable in 12-14 months. Below $0.06/kWh, you’re cash-flow positive in under a year. Use a mining profitability calculator (link below) for your specific situation.
Q: Can I solo mine with this?
A: Yes. The Avalon Q supports Stratum V2 and can point at any solo mining pool (or your own node). You won’t win blocks every day, but when you do, you earn the full 6.25 BTC reward. Most miners run it solo, knowing the variance, but you can switch to a pool if you want steadier income.
Q: Does it work with existing mining software?
A: Yes. Avalon Q uses standard SHA-256 mining. You can point it at any Stratum-compatible pool or solo mining endpoint. It comes with the Avalon Family app for simple setup, but power users can run cgminer or custom mining software.
Q: How is it shipped from Colorado?
A: We ship via FedEx/UPS with insurance. Most orders arrive next business day in the continental US. International orders ship DHL or UPS. Fully packed, protected, and tracked.

Setup & Accessories
What Comes in the Box
- Avalon Q miner unit
- Power cable (16 AWG, standard NEMA plug)
- Ethernet cable
- Quick-start guide
What You’ll Need to Add
- Power Supply: If running Standard or Maximum mode, hire a licensed electrician to add a dedicated circuit. ~$200-500 depending on your panel distance.
- Cooling: Eco mode generates ~800W heat (manageable). Standard mode generates ~1,300W (need good ventilation or exhaust ducting). Check our Avalon Q Exhaust Shroud for directing hot air out a window.
- Network: Ethernet is best, but Wi-Fi works if your router is close and signal is strong.
Recommended CryptoCloaks Accessories
- Canaan Avalon Q Exhaust Shroud (6″ or 8″) — Duct hot air out the window. Keeps room temps manageable.
- BitAxe Stand — Mount multiple units vertically to save desk space (if scaling to multiple miners).

| Canaan Avalon Nano 3 | 6 TH/s | 140W | 23.3 J/TH | $234.99 | Budget option, low profit |
*S19 Pro specs are theoretical from 2019; actual units often run 16-18 J/TH due to age and wear.
Why the Avalon Q is the right choice in 2026:
- Newer generation (current Canaan tech, not 5-year-old used hardware)
- Three power modes = flexibility most miners don’t offer
- 18.6 J/TH efficiency is competitive with modern gear
- Lowest price online (no tariff overhead from CryptoCloaks)
- Bitcoin accepted, Colorado-shipped, next-day delivery
- Solo mining ready (Stratum V2 support)

Ditto as far as my comments on the MINI 3 but this thing really puts out some heat. Some bitcoin would be nice to offset the upcoming electric bill that I’m somewhat fearing.
