I was just browsing (as you do) and bumped into these semi industrial ice cube machines..

If you could dispose of between 230 lbs 1,880 pounds of ice in 24 hours using these machines..Could you make money or would power meter melt profits?

The most significant cost components of ice are energy, depreciation, and transportation. You could probably make money (or save money by not buying ice from a vendor) if all the ice produced by this machine were consumed on site or somewhere close by. Otherwise, ice from a large industrial ice plant (common in the RP) transported by trucks, tricycle, boat, etc., might still be the cheaper way to go.
