A few of my friends are looking at setting up a mining group. Do you think one Inty V (27,000) can handle 5 hulks with T2 Strip Miners? The Inty would be offloading to station in the same system.

Shouldn't be a problem at all, he'll be busy though.

Like he said it will be tight though, as 5 hulks with maxed out skills would be able to fill a can every couple of minutes.

A top end hulk pilot pulls 5,000 to 5,500 m^3 every 3 minutes. So 5 hulks would fill a can every 3 minutes or a maxed Itty V (38,433 m3) in 4 1/2 minutes. So the question is...can the hauler make a round trip in 4 1/2 minutes?

Deploy a 2nd can? That always works..

use it with Giant Secure containers (8 x 900 = 7200 m3 extra). Its a REAL pain in the ass but cheaper then the rigs and you will be able to haul for 5 hulks easily.

hmm 5 is pushing i run 4 hulks with a riggged out impel and it docks and the can is full when it gets back so it never stops so with 5 i think it would be to much for 1 hauler.

rig it up with cargo extenders and put giant secure containers in it. You should be able to make it. once the first roids start popping you get some room to get the hauling on track.
I do pitty the hauler though he is the one with the hard work while the miners only have to watch out they don't fall asleep.

Since we're talking highsec and station you're unloading to in the same system, I don't see why not. But yeah, pretty busy indy pilot

been there, done that :D
it's pretty nasty for the iteron pilot:
- dock/undock lag will kill most of his "free time" - warping to/from may be a problem if it's more than 15-30 AU
if the pilot pulls about 90% efficiency (time spent non-idle) he could do it... but I'd really hate to be him (again)

How is it possible to get 38443 m3 on an itty 5? Mine, with 5 expanded cargo II's only gets 25125 m3.

Skill level 5 + 5x Expanded Cargo Hold II + 3x Cargohold Optimization I Rigs = 38.433 m3
Skill level 5 + 5x Expanded Cargo Hold II + 2x Cargohold Optimization II Rigs + 1x Cargohold Optimization I Rig = 41.848 m3

AHhhhhhh, rigs. I had forgotten about those.
Hmmm, thats worth looking into.

Is it worth the huge price differance between the T1 and T2 rigs, for only 3000m3 extra?? I dont think it is worth the costs, if you only have the hauler as a mining slave. |

I would not think so, no. volume simply translates into time, and you would have to do a lot of runs to make it worth your time. |

Its personal preference really, if you're not worried about losing it and you can afford it then it could be useful, however 3000 m3 isn't all that much so i cant see it making a big difference tbh. -----

Offloading in a POS hangar would be faster than docking/undocking too. but the hangar will fill up quite fast, and then you need to refine it.

Only way this would be remotely possible without the cans piling up fast as **** might be to use a transport ship with cargo rigs. (short training time from the itty V) I use 2 hulks + a retriver and my itty is working like MAD |

the occator (gallente deep space transport) has less cargo space than a maxed out iteron 5 and is slower to align (iirc). only thing it has going for it is it isn't as big as the iteron 5 so won't end up getting caught bashing hulks so easily as you align to warp away.

All comes down to how skilled your hulks are, they can be as bad as some 1300 m3 per minute, up to around 2600m3 ore per minute, or 8k per cycle. And how large your system is. If it's a short jump, or even better you have 2 stations on opposite sides of the mining belt, you can do it very fast, but if it's a 130 AU jump and you have to do 180's each times, it's gonna take some time.
Also consider using cans, while it can be a pain to fill 12 cans each time, they grant you 10.8k extra cargo. If it's long jump it'll pay for itself rather quickly.

Edited by: Cloned S0ul on 30/04/2008 22:52:40 Two month ago i was in ice ming op,to get som fuel to jump bridge,25+ exumers + rorqual and two transport ship,so the rorqual use beam to get cans and we (two small hauler impel+occator)get cans near rorqual then warp to pos hangar,we at 2 haulers delivery whole 25+macinav-hulks cans to pos,i was surprised kuz in som moment we got pause:D,was nothing to do in short time period so we waiting near rorqual to get next cans...
So im siure one hauler can easy delivery cans form 5 hulks withaut biger stres,hulk with max skils,implant,bonus,mlu t2 + drone mine actuay 6500m3 +- 300m3 per cycke,but cane have 27500m3 so he need a bit time to make it full,and the cane life is 2 hours in space so is a lot time to haul all cans.

I'd put some T1 cargohold expander rigs on that Iteron Mark 5.. and 2 tractor beams. T2's would be a waste of ISK (330 mill apiece as of today.) 990 mill for an extra 15% cargo space isn't worth it in my opinion, unless you've got ISK to burn.
Also might want to look into having a character decked out in full mining director gear/skills/implant too. That'll give your hulks 139.5 sec mining cycles, 22.5km mining laser range, and a pretty high bonus to yield. Granted they'll be filling cans faster (1 every 15-18 mins if they don't have the implants, 1 every 12-15 mins if they have both 5% implants) and keeping your hauler really busy, but at least they'll mine those belts faster! :)
Good luck in your efforts,
Kev Hunter
