Host

Intel NUC (NUC7i3BNH)

I moved from a Raspberry Pi3 to an Intel NUC, with 8GB of RAM, Gigabit Ethernet and a Samsung 850 Evo SSD.

System Load with HomeAssistant, various Docker Containers, autossh bridges and other services is moderate. All time laod average is below 0.6.

VENV / Services

I am running HomeAssistant in a virtual environment. The initial basic setup is documented here.

• Fibaro Z-Wave WallPlug
• Ikea TRÅDFRI
• Sonoff POW R2 with Tasmota
• Delock Wifi Plugs
