Raspberry Pis

This is a living document as my Pi deployments change regularly, so it may change frequently.

My current Pi count (estimate) is 17.

Raspberry Pi 5

  1. Bought one of these to use as a Docker host for a bunch of applications: some to test, some to use. Active cooler and 500GB NVMe installed. Current containers hosted include:

    • Portainer - Effortless Container Management for Docker and Kubernetes
    • Nginx Proxy Manager - Expose your services easily and securely
    • Homer - A very simple static homepage for your server
    • Hamclock - invaluable resource for Amateur Radio operators
    • Home Assistant - Open source home automation; not currently using
    • Immich - Self-hosted photo and video management solution
    • Jellyfin - The Free Software Media System
    • Mealie - Recipe Management For The Modern Household

Raspberry Pi 400

  1. Originally used as my Shack PC, but I "upgraded" it to an old laptop which was much quicker. So at the moment it's not doing anything. #AmateurRadio

Raspberry Pi 4

  1. Shari Node
    This one is being used in my car as a portable Allstar node. Thinking of downgrading this to a Pi 3B purely because I can put the Pi 4 to better use.

Raspberry Pi 3B

At least one of these will be a 3B+

  1. MotionEye
    Acts as a hub for my CCTV system, using two Pi Zero W's as cameras

  2. OctoPi
    Acts as the controller for my 3D printer running OctoPi

  3. FR24 feeder
    I'm feeding ADS-B (flight data) to FlightRadar24 and OARC Feeder with this.

Raspberry Pi 3A+

  1. DMR Hotspot
    Acts as a DMR/POCSAG hotspot for my shack #AmateurRadio

  2. YSF Hotspot
    Acts as a YSF hotspot for my shack #AmateurRadio

Raspberry Pi 2B

  1. G7RPG microHUB
    Acts as an Allstar node for my shack #AmateurRadio

  2. I believe I have another one of these kicking around somewhere

Raspberry Pi 1B

  1. I believe I have two of the original 2012-02-29 run Pis, bought from Premier Farnell
  2. and RS Components on the day of their release.

Raspberry Pi 1A+

  1. Originally came with my DV Mega, but I upgraded it. Now sitting idle.

Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W

  1. Portable MMDVM hotspot
    Built a YSF/DMR/POCSAG hotspot for portable use, with a built-in battery.

Raspberry Pi Zero W

  1. CCTV cameras ×2
    I have two of these operating as CCTV cameras for the house, running MotionEye, like the hub.

  2. as above

  3. PAT server
    I'm running this one as a PAT server so I can access my Winlink email from anywhere
