Probably due to my embedded background.
Speaking of that, the owner approved my project to build something for UPS monitoring. Going to order that RaspberryPi 3 kit later (probably tomorrow) and get this going.
Awesome. Will be a lot of fun.
Once i have this under my belt, I may seriously look at redoing it with a cheaper board and parts for wider roll out. THis is the best thing I can think of for a first project though.
Don't forget to make a thread on it. I know I'm interested.
As for something smaller and cheaper. I really think that the ESP8266 or the new ESP32xx would work nicely.
Again, it's uC vs full blown Linux on ARM
You will need to implement everything yourself on a uC, from reading a RTC to controlling single bytes in the UARTs Tx and Rx buffers. I'm not even talking about persistent storage here (reading/writing to an EEPROM or a flash card for example) or communication with the UPS, which will all be handled by some Linux packages for you.I can see little to no benefit for this project in using a uC vs a single core ARM which can run Linux.
Ho-kay,.. maybe I have a better picture now.. uC vs ARM-
This may work,..
That is still $37 prior to shipping to get the pieces, assuming the $3 case and not the $12 one.
yea... more expensive,.. but - they are showing 100 of them so unlike the PiZero,.. you can get them.
