All the analysis reports on the pi4 say it draws more power and runs much hotter, some even advocating active cooling. As always, reports are sometimes not worth the bits they're written on, so I was curious for real-life folks doing similar non-intensive things. But still it looks like a pretty solid box for well under $100 end to end. The real Gbit ethernet and usb3 enough gets me interested, once the Fliirc case (https://flirc.tv/more/raspberry-pi-4-case) is available I'll probably grab one. Those cases are excellent on the pi3 and pi3+ and look pretty good too. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
