Sights of summer trickling in. Another scorcher of a day ahead in April, hoping this means we’ve got a packed summer of this weather!

Aaaand we’re back in business! Dusted off the old ClusterHAT 2.3 and been tinkering with some Homelabby SOC this evening. Also migrated my PiHole instance to it as a first ditch play!
It’s also hooked up to a Tapo energy monitoring plug 🤓. Super cool!

PoE Raspberry Pi!!
Quite impressed with this cheap PoE HAT from Amazon. Let’s see how long this raspi survives with this. Currently drawing 3.8W of power sat running Prometheus via docker!

Cleaning up / reassembling a RaspberryPi ClusterHAT. Lovely bit of kit that’s been shelved for too long!
This shelves a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ and 4 Pi Zeros to form a neat little lower power cluster.

Reconfiguring some Ubuntu servers I run locally this evening. Got two Dell Wyse thin clients for various tinkering gubbings. That’s the technical terminology definitely.
Great little PC’s for mucking around!
