I'd put heatshrink over the soldered conx. The fan is just going to add more heat into the box - depending temp diff with the outside of the box, why not make a hole for a heat conductor... maybe have the Pi turn on a peltier connected to the conductor if things get real bad in there?
I’d put HA in as non critical systems. Digital switching likes lights, air, fans, humidity control etc. Look up CZone to see how is use it instead of a black boxed system.
The SD card may become corrupted, leading to system crashes. Since you've already copied data from the faulty SD card to the SSD, my suggestion is to begin anew by flashing the OpenPlotter image directly onto the SSD.
Hi, Here are a couple of YT videos I recommend for you. The first is a review of NVME boards: th-cam.com/video/Xz-4AoYrx1g/w-d-xo.html He does a good review of the technical specs and capabilities. The second covers the proper steps to set up an NVME card and how to switch the Pi over to use the NVME drive: th-cam.com/video/IUxP31rNRY4/w-d-xo.html From what I've found, if you do things the way you did, then it is highly likely there will be problems. Granted, the video creator is not using the best NVME hat card, but the steps provide for a better result. Also, he details how to change the Pi settings to have a faster connection to the NVME drive. Lastly, have you seen any of Smart Boat Innovations videos? He does a lot with Home Assistant. www.youtube.com/@SmartBoatInnovations/videos He also has a lot of preprogrammed modules you can download. Just something to check out. All the best.
This is nice but we want to see the 13 motor test 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤

I'll look into this. Thanks for sharing!
Great idea! Thanks.
I'm curious why you're going to dive in the home assistant. What was lacking an open CPM?

Fresh install on SSS for the Pi 5. SSD soon for the Pi 4 for HA.

That second video would have been helpful before I did this! Thanks for sharing and I have seen some of the Smart Boat Innovations too.
Thanks for sharing. I’ll look into these!
