So I got me some Raspberry Pi to use as a pump controller in a hot, dirty environment. I’m pretty pleased on the whole, a complete Linux box for $35 is pretty sweet. Actually I paid $80 with the case, HDMI cable and 4GB flash plus shipping.
I’ve had it for about 2 weeks. I have seen one hard crash in that time which is kind of worrisome. What kind of reliability are you seeing with your Pi?
They are very reliable IMO.
They do need a robust 5v supply. I got a few cheap powered USB hubs and all is well :-)
I’m waiting for my new BeagleBone Black to arrive... it looks like a fun toy to play with.
I just love this stuff :-)
