Hey everyone, I am curious to find out what hardware everyone is running . Been debating on moving my setup over to a Pi and been looking at https://www.crowdsupply.com/nabu-casa/home-assistant-yellow#products for a base to work with.

I went ahead and pre-ordered the Yellow with PoE. I finally was able to find a Computer Pi 4.

I love this thing https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01K0P8GJQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If you have a lot of radios (zigbee, zwave, Bluetooth, etc) it gets them off of the built in ports on the RPI.

For me, I prefer a powered hub like this one - https://www.amazon.com/Splitter-Charging-Individual-Switches-Extension/dp/B07G8CMR18/r where I can inject power, and the current draw doesn’t have to come from my PRI

That’s nice!

I like how many ports it has.

Plus the individually addressable power switches.
