Mike Baier(@Mike__Baier):Each Prufrock carries 2.6 million watts of electrical capacity. That’s the same as: • ~4,000 corded power drills • The continuous draw of more than 2,100 American homes • 1,444 hair dryers running at full blast We typically only use about half of that at current mining speeds. The rest is pure headroom for going faster. Three 13.2 kV substations power every machine. All three designed in-house by our electrical engineering team. We’re hiring at every level.
