Hiya, so I have a spear RaspberryPI 4b, and want to selfhosted HomeassistantOS on it, heard there were some advantages of running the full OS and not just the docker container. However I currently don’t have a casing for it.
So: Is there anything I should know before buying one? Does the rpi get very hot running HomeassistantOS? E.g. Do I need one of these cases with a fan built into it? Or is it OK without?
Appreciate any tips or suggestions! however I will not order anything from Amazon or Ali Express or any of those type of websites. Feel free to recommend via them though as I might find the same case elsewhere, perhaps.

Nope, never heard of it either. Care to elaborate?
Ohh, so its for building DIY TV backlighting, seems cool!
Yes! And it’s very good. If you already own a pi, the rest doesn’t cost a lot. Look on aliexpress or whereever you can get cheap parts from china.

Thanks, I’ll see around where I can get lights to an OK price. I’ve never thought about having ambient lights around my TV before. I might make another lemmy post on that, ask lemmies if they have ambient lighting or not and what they think of it. I personally always thought it was one of these marketing points from TV companies, but looking around now and it does seem a little cool haha!
Good idea, looking forward to that post.
I think it’s great. The LEDs only cost a few bucks. They are mostly heavily overpriced unless you buy directly from china
