I think it is overkill--but I did it anyway--so I've been running Raspbian with weewx with the Cumulus plug-in and the CPU is idle. I don't believe heat would be an issue in this config however I am using an RTL-SDR that runs very hot so it skews things. No case or fans presently. My

Is a Raspberry Pi 4 not massive overkill? I'm running the default skin on an Orange Pi Zero with 256MB of RAM. Does have a quad 1.2GHz CPU though. -James Muirhead. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group. To unsubscribe from this group

Well, does it? Pi's are power managed in that they draw what they need based on what they're doing. Sure, the Pi 4 is capable of drawing more, but will it do so for the workload needs of WeeWx and related SW? For one thing the Pi 4's new SoC is on paper 2-3x as efficient as a Pi 3, so things
