Patrick,
My only comment is on the RaspberryPi SD Cards
I have several Pi2=E2=80=99s running 24/7 as media centres (OpenELEC/Kodi)
=
behind
the TVs.
I don=E2=80=99t know how much reading/writing they do during operation but
=
I have
had no failures in a couple of years=E2=80=A6
HTH

Hello Chap(s/esses)
Been a while! Nice to see some familiar faces kicking around the archives!
So I'm in the throws of rewiring a renovation project, and would like to
stick some HA in whilst I'm at it. I'm currently thinking Qubino dimmer and
relay modules for lighting automation & temperature sensing, paired
with a
samsung smarthing hub (for WAF), and Alexa dots dotted around. What happens
if smartthings loses it's internet connection - this is something that I
anticipate happening from time to time? Will the qubino temperature sensing
be realistic behind the wallplate, or would I be better off using homebrew
(ESP8266 wi-fi or 1-wire cat-5 based) sensors instead?
Heating will be all-electric, radially wired to solid state relays. I'll
need to tie those to the temperature sensors somehow. I've not had great
experiences with the longevity/reliability of raspberry pi SD cards, so I'm
thinking that I'll go with a beaglebone black instead, coupled with an aeon
z-stick or interfaced to the smarthing hub via IP if that's possible?
All this stuff is new to me, do I stand a reasonable chance of getting it
to play nicely together? Are there other options I should be considering or
any gotchas?
Grateful for all input!
Cheers,
Patrick
