FRI have been beta testing Heatbit Mini… I have been beta testing Heatbit Mini for the last couple of weeks, and I also own the original model. I like both devices, but Mini is clearly a better quality heater with better materials, more thought-out design etc. It is also a great air purifier. I am surprised the Mini price was lower than the first generation and I LOVE it. I still think there can be some improvements in the app for example, but as a beta tester I got to talk to the product team, and they make updates and improvements every week. Overall, if you are a tech enthusiast, this is a great gadget for you

CAHeatbit delivers what it promised Heatbit is a good product. It does what it promises which is generate heat and mine bitcoin. User interface does need some improvements and hopefully that is forthcoming from the development team. There are also some minor setup and wifi connectivity issues that could be ironed out, but in the end, it does deliver. For new users: In particular it takes about 30 seconds to "boot up" which is something that is not mentioned anywhere, so at first it appears like it doesn't work, when in fact it is simply initializing.

GBLong wait, now pleased with the Mini It took a very long time to finally receive the Heatbit Mini. Very. I had the Heatbit One unit, and actually was okay with it, until it stopped working. I returned that original device and got on the list for the Heatbit Mini, where I remained in limbo with many others for months. I was skeptical until the Mini arrived at my door, which it did in March. It is a much more visually pleasing and technically sophisticated device. The differences between the One and the Mini are substantial, pretty much all good. Living in an area that will see increasing numbers of wildfires and air quality issues, I am glad to see an air purification function added to the Mini. How it works, changing/cleaning filters, needs to be explained better. Or, period. I found the setup to be difficult and frustrating, however. I honestly don't know how it eventually connected to my wi-fi and the app, but it was not the seemingly simple process outlined on the website. The app itself has been improved, and provides useful information about device status, ambient conditions, and mining activity. I do wish that there was more control functionality between the app and the Heatbit, but I am assuming that that will come with more time and refinement of the software or firmware. Probably my biggest gripe is that there really needs to be an owner's manual available online. The controls on the device provide more functionality, but I shouldn't need to do a search to learn what that functionality is. The Mini can do a number of things—those should be documented. Summary: the new hardware seems well-thought out and robust (though my experience has been relatively brief...so far, so good). App is better, but needs to be better. Device documentation and support needs to exist and be maintained with any changes that occur over time. Finally...I am earning satoshis at the advertised rate, and am happy about that. I hope that everyone else has their machine really soon.

GBGreat Heater This is a great heater for anyone to use especially during the winter time when temperatures really drop! It may look small, but the Heatbit Machine will keep you nice in warm while saving you some money on your heating bill! For those concern about noise with their heaters, this heater is nice and quiet so you won't have to worry about it's sound one bit! Another exciting thing about the Heatbit Heater too is it may make you a little bit of money in Bitcoin if you're into investing in Bitcoin as well!
