I did not calculate it, I hope you can give me some ideas.
$$lim_{nrightarrow infty}left( frac{1}{3-1}+frac{1}{3^2-1}+...+frac{1}{3^n-1} right). $$

    Wolframalpha told me the answer is related to the q-digamma function, which is not elementary.

  • You will find an answer, of a kind, here at Wolfram Alpha. But it doesn't give the derivation.

  • $$sum_{ngeq 1}frac{1}{3^n-1}=sum_{ngeq 1}sum_{kgeq 1} 3^{-kn} = sum_{mgeq 1}frac{d(m)}{3^m}$$ is a trascendental number (Tachiya) which can be effectively approximated through the Mellin transform (Riedel). It is $0.6821535ldots$
