Running Jarvee from Laptop 24/7/365 - risks?

[augustwu]

It’s really hard to create account nowadays

People with vps are either lazy/ uninformed or computers in their country is very expensive.
My 64gb ram,ssd 2.4ghz 8 core can run 1500 accounts. PC cost me about 550$.

I do it 24/7 with FL and my 3 biggest accounts all from the same home IP. I turn off my laptop only when I travel and that’s for 1 month from August till September every year. During this period I don’t bot and only schedule photos.
I use Asus so I turn off my screen by using the “fn” key + “F7” key.

It’s quite a powerful laptop so I don’t have any issues even if I run multiple bots.

Regarding all other 300+ accounts, I use a VPS.

Following. Haven't tried out jarvee like a mining tool before

My research into proxies resulted that all datacenter proxies are now high risk or impossible. And 4G proxies cost 40 - 50$ a month.

For just one account, running Jarvee from home seems to be best.

I see my best bet on buying something like a Lenovo Thinkpad 420 with 8GB RAM and an SSD to run it from home via my own IP.

Have you been doing this?

1. Is there a risk to let a laptop run 24/7/365? (what do you do when you travel?)

2. How do you turn off the screen without turning off the computer?

3. Is Windows 7 best?

I think Windows have at battery settings something like this "What to do when the screen is turned off" - 1. Standby 2. Nothing

And at all IMO you don't need to use 24 / 7, once you'll would like to look like as human, is better dont make interactions the entire day.

I'm using proxies just fine running about 50 accounts 1/1

How many IG accounts can you run per one residental connection without much risk?

If you run 5 accounts, then its ok, but if your run 200-500 accounts, you need powerful PC/Laptop - for example I use Dedi server with dual Xeon and 32GB ram, paying ~60$ for it each month.
Now imagine how much cost to buy such laptop? I guess ~1500-2000$ one time payment. Sure its more smart in such case to buy server PC or something - but it will cost ~600-1000$ one time payment. + Electricity and Internet cost. You will need ~1-2 years running non stop just to save money back. If you project wont be stable and longterm it will be just waste of money.
Also dont forget that dedi servers and VPS comes on RAID and if your ssd/hdd burns you wont loose anything. If you laptop burns after 6 months nonstop working you will loose much time and data to restore it all.

So if you do this as a game, you can use and play on laptop. But in all cases its better to use virtual or dedi servers.

I have my eyes on a Lenovo Thinkpad T420s or T430s with an SSD cost between 165 and 200$ and connected to my Wifi.

As far as I know the limit would be 3 accounts per IP.

 

[Master of Instagram]

Don't run the bot 24/7, do some rest days (1 or 2) and add night rest.

How much Accs you plan to run on it? if its less then 50 you will be good.
Btw its old laptop - i had the same one and sold few weeks ago it had some troubles with overheating, its old i5 there. btw why you want "laptop"?
For 24/7 work look for some gaming PS and remove graphical card or some old tower server. Laptop price comes for portability and screen - running bot 24/7 from home you dont need these things at all.

It's been a year now that I run 2 accounts on my computer and no problem so far

The computer is almost on 24/7/365 (with rest time, of course)

I think a better approach is to setup a free VPS on Amazon AWS (1 year free) and set up a vpn to your home using a raspberry pi zero w (25$ for the kit), so your amazon vps will use your home address as the proxy, safest thing and on the cheap. Setup for the vpn is a little complicated if you are not a techie but is a much much cheaper option and you don´t need the laptop working 24/7

 

[kelembu]

IMO just buy an cheap customizable VPS. (for only 1 jarvee acc you need about 2 cores and 2 GB RAM... So about 15-20€ monthly)
Buy yourself an Raspberry Pi.

Configure your Raspberry as an Proxy.

And then Connect your VPS to the proxy. With this setup you could use your home IP without the hastle of harming your laptop.

Laptops are not designed to run for ever, they will get heat damage or it will suck some dust and make other problems.

I´m running the free amazon aws vps with 1 core, 1gb of ram using Jarvee with 10 accounts and no issues.

there is hyonix vps for 6.5$ monthly i think they are in UK? im using my accounts with gmt2 on my PC,im affraid of those VPS's. 24/7 is not smart at all! i run profiles no more then 10 hours a day,im also making random pauses during the day to imitate hyman behavior.

Risk is the computer dying, that's about the only risk.

1. You can run it from your own machine but I don't see a logic reason to do this? you have to maintain the internet and you will use a lot of bandwidth @ your ISP

2. Many people still using Datacenters IPs. It still doable however, Not safe like 4G.

3. If you are traveling you will not start to deal with your Laptop to miss with jarvee. This is one of the advantages of using a VPS. I don't see a logic reason to use your machine for jarvee.

Goto start > (little search box) and type power options, click the result. select maximum performance, then goto options and adjust Hdd > tun off never, Power lid options on closing - Do nothing.

 

[rettopback]

have you tried Follow Planner?

i wanted to give it a try, but now they are not answering questions, and their post is temporaly closed.
The adventage I see over Jarvee is that is web based, so you dont need a computer, it works even on your phone.
