I'm about to place an order for $700 in thermostat components. Weee.
Stocking up like this always makes me a little nervous. What if people stop caring about open source thermostats? What if I just spent all this money on parts that will just sit on my shelf?
On the flip side, what if I don't buy these parts? Then nobody can buy a pre-assembled HestiaPi, which means anyone isn't willing & able to make their own gets left behind.
And that's why I keep doing it. Leave no one behind! #FOSS #OpenHardware #hardware #OpenSource
