My EarnHoney Roku Setup $2/device/day
EarnHoney has recently started allowing Roku players to display ads and generate a revenue from them. They were advertised as being the most profitable thing to run the EH platform on. I have seen iffy results with them. They should pay for themselves in a month though even with low earnings.
I have set (5) Rokus up the best way possible. Have all of them connected into a RCA splitter / HDMI splitter. I used standoffs to connect all of them together in a brick like fashion. Removed all of the cases and outside components to allow quick heat dissipation and added heat sinks on all heat producing components.
TvGlee channel on the Roku needs resetting every 2 - 6 hours. Luckily, one Roku remote can control them all simultaneously so it's only a few clicks to reset them all. Considering setting up an Arduino with IR control to do this automatically every 4 hours or so.

I am not sure what it is you are trying to say. However, regarding heat dissipation; Roku's were not made with the idea of them always streaming content. They were manufactured to be used for a few hours and then in standby the rest of the day. They get very warm considering they are passively cooled and there are no vents on their enclosure. I have found that they tend to over heat and reboot with prolonged use. I found the best way to combat this is to remove the outer enclosure, pop a few heat-sinks on and place it in front of a fan.
Yes, You will need some computer that is on to run the calligraphy automatically. I personally use a raspberry pi running linux because it's always on and uses barely any power. You most likely will want to look into running cron jobs via Windows and run it on a beermoney computer that you leave on 24/7.
A quick google search brings up the power consumption of all the Roku's. And I don't know what you pay for electricity.

No. Because Earnhoney has stopped allowing Rokus to be used on their platform.I quit using EarnHoney because it wasn't even making me $2 a week running 24/7 using the website on my laptop and the app on a couple devices. Now that I'm reading this, I may try it again. I only have one Roku device tho. Think that would make me enough money to make it worth trying?
Thanks for letting me know. I didn't think I had seen it when I was using the website but I was going to go back and look again to make sure. EarnHoney sucks for me. I've quit using it in my routine. Same with YooLotto. I keep it downloaded on a few devices, but it's pretty much hit or miss.No. Because Earnhoney has stopped allowing Rokus to be used on their platform.
What do you use instead of Yoolotto or Earnhoney? I have found both of those to be somewhat profitable in my area (central Indiana). I am holding onto my Roku's hoping that one of the platforms brings back money making on them.Thanks for letting me know.

I am in a small town of south Georgia so that might be part of my problem with those two apps. I profit the most from Perk and Swagbucks but those also require the most attention during the day. I am mostly a stay-at-home mom so I have the time. I only work out of the home 1-2 days a week. I do really well boosting my daily Swagbucks by just taking a few of their surveys every day along with running the videos and meeting the daily goal list. It doesn't take much time to do the surveys, but I realize most people on here are looking for passive income and I totally get that. I only have 5 total devices plus my main phone so I just try to do the most profitable things I can until I can get more devices. I have also been doing well running Rewardable TV on them at night since that app doesn't need as much babysittingWhat do you use instead of Yoolotto or Earnhoney?
