218T Computing Power Monster Unboxing! Avalon A15 Pro noise 75dB, did the neighbors think I was running a plane at home?

Unboxing Review | #Avalon A15pro Real Test Experience: The Aesthetic of Violence Beneath a Calm Exterior!

To be honest, the mining industry has been full of ups and downs over the past two years, with all kinds of new products emerging one after another. As an "old miner," I have seen many flashy models on the market, and my enthusiasm for new equipment has waned. But everything changed when the Avalon A15pro came into my hands.

First Encounter · Industrial Feel Heavy Armored Warrior

Just unwrapped the package, the A15pro immediately gives Editor Li Yi a sense of "this machine is not simple"—the silver-gray metal shell plus the classic Avalon logo conveys a stable yet tech-savvy aura. The overall dimensions of the machine are 301×192×292mm, and with the power supply packaged together, it weighs only 15.9 kg, making it not too difficult to carry. The package also thoughtfully includes a power supply (thumbs up!).

The front face dual fan design clearly aims for "cooling violence"; the two 12050 large fans genuinely tell you: this is not here to look cute, it's here to work!

Power On · Start the Mining Engine Amidst Roaring Waves

Powered on, connected to the network, deployment completed, everything goes according to the process. At the moment of startup, the fan spins loudly, the hum reaches the roof, the official claim is a maximum of 75 decibels, and when measured by editor Li Yi with a noise meter, it is indeed around this level. It is recommended to place it in the machine room or on the balcony, not in the bedroom, unless you really like "white noise" to help you sleep.

Performance Test · True Steel Beast

The actual measured stable hash rate is 218T/s, with little fluctuation (basically within ±1T), which is quite stable. Moreover, after running continuously for 6 hours, the power consumption data has consistently maintained around 3662W, resulting in an energy efficiency ratio of 16.8 J/TH as officially claimed, which is almost in line with the official data.

What deserves a thumbs up here is the cooling efficiency—under a room temperature of 28°C, the overall chip temperature is maintained between 70~75°C, which is excellent. The fan is noisy, but it's not just noise; the airflow is smooth, the output volume is large, and the heat is dissipated cleanly and efficiently.

User Experience · No Frills, But Stability is Key

After using it for three days, Li Yi's biggest feeling can be summed up in two words: reliable. This A15pro does not have a fancy smart screen, nor does it have a complex stack of functions. The UI interface is similar to traditional Avalon servers, clear and straightforward, easy to use. The configuration is simple, deployment is quick, making it suitable for users who pursue "plug-and-mine".

Compared to some "PPT servers" during the same period that often experience calculation drops, crashes, and temperature control failures, the A15pro really feels like a solid old brick—nothing new, but particularly durable, capable, and productive.

Summary · A Main Model Worth Holding for the Long Term

Overall, the Avalon A15pro is a high-performance server with a clear positioning, stable performance, and solid workmanship. It is especially suitable for the following groups of people:

✅ Users who want to set up a stable server room

✅ Professional miners pursuing high computing power and high energy efficiency ratio

✅ Not a fan of "flashy things", just looking for stability and profits

If you're torn about which big pancake server to get, why not try this "Construction Site Brick Mover" A15pro, it may not be the most stunning, but it is definitely one of the most reliable.

Additional Reminder: The machine operates with a high noise level, it is recommended to use it in conjunction with an independent machine room or soundproof cabinet; pay attention to controlling the ambient temperature and maintaining good ventilation, which helps extend the lifespan of the equipment.

If you also want to get into mining or upgrade your mining rig, consider adding the Avalon A15pro to your list. Getting it is like hiring a diligent and reliable employee. #btc#
