This is ideal for me. I don't use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, so this $100 allows to pay for what I need and not pay for what I don't. I want one of these for a PiHole and maybe pfSense. Mahalo from a subscriber in Hawai'i! Aloha!
I just found this video. You got a subscription from me. I do like the way you explain things My 2024 project: I just got a Rpi5 to replace my Rpi4 , which is my daily driver computer. Before my RPi5 replaces the Rpi4 , I am experimenting with Ollama on it. If it works out I plan to buy a 32G Orange Pi 5 or better to run/ build it on. I also plan to buikd a NAS unit out of a second RPI5. I will look for unconventional ways to add nvme drives to it. I started concentrating on low power devices when I was living in a region of Western Canada that is prone to wild fires. I wanted tech as low power as reasonable, that I could power from LifePo4 batteries. In the event that I needed to evacuate, I could take it with me and still be productive. Now that I live in the big city again I don't have to worry about wild fires, but still enjoy creating with single board computers. I even get my internet from a 4G router with its own built in battery, and a sim card with unlimited data. I mentioned all of this in case it gives you ideas for future videos. I encourage you to keep creating.
Thats sounds super interesting, I really like how necessity helped you create solutions. I have recently being testing various models with Ollama and the performance is impressive. I haven't used the 32GB Orange PI5, just the 8GB model but I imagine its performance is impressive - would love to hear how you get on. p.s. thanks for the sub 😀
Excellent Orange Pi5 overview video. Do you have a video on the Orange Pi5 GPIOs. The PWM servo motor control and the I2C pins are very interesting. 🦖 Thank you.
Thanks, I don't have a video on this currently, the Orange PI certainly is a very interesting board that in some areas really excels over the Raspberry PI. Again thank you for the lovely comment.
I mostly didn't use a fan or heatsink when I tested this board, however when I was testing the performance I attached a random 5v fan above the SOC to add some cooling. If I was running it long term I would probably recommend a heatsink and fan to make sure it maintained maximum performance.
Very well done ma'am, thank you for your hard work. Very good video.

Aloha from the UK, Indeed the board is great, and if you don't need WIFI but want the CPU performance its a good choice. Thanks for subscribing 😀

Do you need anything besides the board/hardware to boot the OS? Like do you need fans? Heatsink? Anything?
