In this video, I walk you through how a meter box inside my mining shed started smoking, overheating, and actually caught fire, nearly melting down the entire operation. If we hadn\u2019t caught it when we did, this could have ended in a total loss \u2014 miners, shed, wiring, everything.<\/p>\n<p>I take you step\u2011by\u2011step through what happened, what caused the failure, how close we came to disaster, and what the electrician found when we tore everything apart. More importantly, I break down the critical lessons every home miner needs to know about electrical safety, load balancing, and why \u201cset it and forget it\u201d is a dangerous myth in Bitcoin mining.
