Looking for device for Home Assistant (lemmy.ml)

submitted 5 months ago by LukeSky@lemmy.ml to c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

11 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Hi everyone. I'm looking for a device to install Home Assistant on to manage a smart thermostat, a programmable light bulb (on and off), and another lamp in my house. Since I'll be doing other work in the future, I want to use Home Assistant to be ready for the future.

That said, I'm looking for a device (a Mini PC, a Pi, etc.) that consumes very little power, as I'll be using it exclusively for this purpose. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you in advance!

Any newer Pi should be fine for a basic setup. I ran HA on a raspberry pi 3 B for years with no performance issues.
