The A1346 is a 2022-generation miner at 30 J/TH. For comparison, the Antminer S21 Pro runs at 15 J/TH — twice as efficient per terahash. At standard Australian electricity rates (~$0.30/kWh), the A1346 is not currently profitable. This unit is best suited to operators with access to cheap electricity (under ~$0.07/kWh), bulk farm deployments where low acquisition cost per terahash matters, or buyers receiving pricing that reflects its generation. If you're a home miner at standard AU rates, consider the Canaan Avalon Q or the Antminer S21 series instead.
The A1346 brings three meaningful improvements over the A1246. First, 30 J/TH vs 38 J/TH — a 21% efficiency gain that adds up significantly at continuous 24/7 operation. Second, 110 TH/s vs 90 TH/s — 20 additional terahashes at lower total wattage (3300W vs 3420W). Third, 100–240V universal voltage input — the A1346 works on any global power standard without conversion equipment, unlike the A1246's 220V-only design.
Two additional fans (6 vs 4) provide better thermal management for the higher hashrate, and the A13 series represents a genuinely improved generation of Canaan silicon over the A12.

Bitcoin mining profitability depends on network difficulty, BTC price, electricity costs, and other market variables. MinerHub does not guarantee mining returns. The Canaan Avalon A1346 is a 2022-generation miner at 30 J/TH — less efficient than current-generation hardware. At standard Australian electricity rates this miner is currently not profitable based on publicly available data. Buyers should carefully calculate their specific electricity cost and current network difficulty before purchasing. Best suited to operations with sub-$0.07/kWh access. All hashrate and power figures are manufacturer-stated typical values (±3–8%).
