I havent looked into USB mining, but does it specifically have to be plugged into a PC or does the USB have its own wifi that you can configure? If they are wireless I would get a 12v battery and a 12v to 240v inverter (I have one thats got a USB port) and plug it into that, and hook up a solar panel to the battery. Then at least you have that cheap infrastructure you can use on something else if you want and the only $ risk is the USB miner

Edit: Just looking and they use a lot more power than I was expecting, guess it depends on which one.
