AS from the occasional power spike !! If you have that infrastructure already (for whatever reason) then it is just a small tweak to incorporate something new like this. On Mon, Feb 20, 2023 at 1:55 PM Greg Troxel wrote: > Tom via Nut-upsuser writes: > > >>That makes sense. So

g to learn something new. Has NUT been deployed on a nodemcu? It looks like these do not run traditional operating systems? On Mon, Feb 20, 2023 at 11:43 AM Greg Troxel wrote: > Tom via Nut-upsuser writes: > > > 1. Yes, I plan to use a Raspberry Pi Zero W with an I2C interface
