Cheers mate. It’s an inline fan with a max draw of <40W, so I’m hoping the inrush won’t be to bad.

Thanks for the feedback on plugs. Great to see people being happy with so many brands!

Interesting! Thanks friend!

Cheers! A bit pricier here, but looks to fit the bill

Cheers mate. Aquara I can find, so I’ll have a look at it!

Thank you for the advice! I’ll read up on them!

They keep coming up. Must be decent, I reckon. Go for gen.3 or wait for 4?

Cheers!

Cheers mate! I’ll read up on it. Matter over WiFi is fine, I just don’t have a Thread router yet

Yeah Shelly and Meross seem to fit the bill quite well, and can run local only. Leaning towards those two.

Cheers!

Sadly I can’t find the inrush current on it, but I’m hoping it will be fine. If I burn one, I’ll look to build some sort of soft starter myself.
This hobby has turned into a deep rabbit hole long ago anyways….

Thank you for the advice!

I need to read more up on athom. Seems like a cool store! Cheers

Shelly seems popular and is available in black. Happy wife, happy life, ey…

Cheers mate. On the short list!

Appreciate advice on what to stay away from too, so thanks for that!

Sadly I can’t find these locally, but I appreciate the advice!

I found this locally, but only in white sadly.
It’s on the short list nonetheless. Thank you!

Cheers! Good advice on inrush current as I don’t think it has a soft start built in

Not the advice I was looking for, but good to know nonetheless !

This is the way!
N100 running all my containers including Jellyfin with NFS to the NAS and HAOS. It works beautifully. Never experienced as much as a hickup. 8W idle and <20 W under load.

I know I’m late to the party, but if OP goes for a N100 NUC, he should repaste before starting. Factory used way to little and cheap paste.

I do it from home and do just fine.
My «trick» was to only download complete seasons and movies larger than 14 GB to get loads of freeleech to build ratio and just keep seeding them.

I’m at >10 ratio on TL and stopped caring about sizes as the pool of old files outseed anything new I download.

But I get your point: seedboxes have made it a lot harder to do effortlessly from home

I was heavily on your side untill the comma, man. Margherita is delicious and the ultimate test of the chef as there is nowhere to hide mistakes.

Does it qualify if I add basil after the cook?
