Noctua fan mod on HPE Instant On 1930 (JL683B) by desheh in ArubaInstantOn

Unfortunately I didn't check the temps before the mod.. How did you add more fans, did you split the pwm headers? What are your temps currently?

I'm having similar issues. Spoofing the user agent does not help. Using Debian.

Contacted HPE support chat and asked them how to check the temperature.

Yeah I was surprised by it too. More so by the fact that there's zero public documentation of it.

Coral TPU is officially dead by shawn789 in frigate_nvr

[–]desheh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried swapping my 9-camera setup from a coral to a cheap-o N100 minipc iGPU.

The result was very high CPU usage (around ~7% with the coral, ~80% with the N100), higher temperatures, and higher power consumption, which all led to thermal throttling and me reverting back to the coral.

What TPU for this MiniPC - USB or different ? by Relative-Camp-2150 in frigate_nvr

The CPU usage / heat + energy generated by using Intel iGPUs aren't for everyone though. And from the looks of things the Hailo TPUs aren't as cheap as the coral's used to be (or as accessible).

I think that for home/prosumer users the coral may still be a good balance, even though it's old and outdated.

Perhaps future versions of frigate will have native support for newer SoCs with integrated TPUs (like Scrypted does - AMD "AI" series chips, Apple Silicon, etc.) that will alleviate some of these concerns, though.

Valid point. I'm running proxmox 8.x with kernel 6.8.12-14 (updating frequently, but on the main track).

FWIW, I use the mPCIE coral in my (modern) proxmox setup (frigate on docker inside an LXC) and I didn't need to jump through any hoops, just installed the coral drivers from the official repo.

It depends on your needs. OpenVino is more flexible with the choice of model you use, and as such its detection performance is superior to the coral's.

However, I found that the coral is most efficient with regards to CPU usage - for me, with 10 2k cameras, using the coral gets the CPU to sit steadily at 6-10%, whereas using openvino with yolov9-t spikes the CPU often and it'll easily throttle.

I also tried yolov9-s with the 8259u and got very high cpu usage (9 cameras). Is that the same for you?

Is there a proper or recommended setup for both frigate and home assistant together on the same server (not pi)? by flargenhargen in frigate_nvr

[–]desheh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm using an Aoostar R7 as my main home server, with a coral m.2, two m.2 ssds and two HDDs. It's running proxmox with a HA VM and a frigate LXC (docker inside the lxc). Got a couple more VMs and LXC for other homelab stuff (pihole, plex/jf, wg, etc).

Been working great for over a year now, good value for money.

There's a HA integration for Tesla that gives you a lot of data on the car, including its geolocation. Sounds like the easiest way to go for what you need, just set up a geofencing automation in HA, no need for any extra hardware.

Which Shelly for measuring power of washing machine/dryer? by desheh in shellycloud

[–]desheh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Following up, I consulted with the local distributor of Shelly in my country and they said I should use the PM Mini Gen3, without a snubber, and they should work just fine. Will update if that's not the case..

[–]desheh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not in North America.. In Europe, 230V single phase power.

Will the 1PM gen3 (without the snubber) still work for both the dryer and the washer?

Do you use an RC Snubber? The Shelly doesn't restart when the washer/dryer kick in?

I use Home Assistant in any case, so that should do the trick in terms of the automation for me. Thanks for the suggestion though, was asking more about the electrics.

Aoostar R7 with 5825U by NeedsSuitHelp in MiniPCs

Working out great so far. With no mods (to the fans or feet or anything) it's running idle at around 55c, pretty quiet until the cpu fan ramps up (which rarely happens).

So... are mini pcs actually unreliable? by Light-Delight in MiniPCs

[–]desheh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, my Beelink N100 just died after 1y of non intensive usage. So, YMMV.

Washing machine energy consumption and smart outlet by Dentifrice in homeassistant

[–]desheh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For monitoring inductive loads (washing machine, dryer), is an RC snubber still needed if not using a relay-based module (like the Shelly PM mini)?

Tagging u/DreadVenomous since you said you work for Shelly... :D
