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.

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
Yeah that’s true, but am trying to fight against the “boy from cheap online shops” mentality. We’re fortunate that amazon isn’t a thing in my country, although they do ship here. But I’ll look around to see where I can get some good ones, compatible with what I want to do.
I understand the logic, yet you are just buying from a reseller. There is no need for the middleman in that case. It’s not all bad.
