From zero to full automation of lights, security system, and HVAC in 2 hours, thanks @home_assistant! (Got a Yellow, added on NVMe SSD and Z-Wave radio via GPIO). Video coming soon!

@geerlingguy Is a Yellow that much easier than a Pi4 DIY?
I gave up on the Pi4 method because for some reason the machine would always be sleeping or shutdown or something when I went back the next day.
I tried Docker but their managed container thing was confusing and messy.
So have mostly given up despite loving the concept.

@Casper042 Yes it is; it was well worth the price to just have it all bundled in one box. Plus adding on Z-Wave via Zooz GPIO module was dead simple, and it's all been quite reliable for me.
