“Regardless of the Pi 4 itse;lf (which was a super useful device), I just want to say the service has been fantastic as Royal mail delayed delivery for 2 weeks and declared it lost but the guys here sent a new one and refunded the old one straight away). I would consider using the more expensive postal service they offer if you don't want the hassle I had :)
I used the Pi 4 as a virtual usb server between a motion simulator and a PC setup via "virtualhere" and it was easy to do and been great so far! I'll probably get another PI at some point for a home automation system or a classic arcade emulation as they are so versatile! :)”
“Great little device. Only negative is that they reversed the position of the USB and Ethernet ports meaning it doesn’t fit in the case I wanted to use!”
“Usage - HyperHDR Controller (TV backlight)
Performance for task - Amazing
Summary:
I'll be honest, I was on the fence between this and a 2gb version but I've no regrets about going for 1gb.
The goal was to make an ambilight equivalent using spare parts I had and anything else to be as cheap as possible. I needed a Pi4 to utilise the USB3 and higher clock speeds to process the video capture.
The 1gb performs perfectly, temps hover around 60c with no cooling/heatsinks after a 2 hour film.
PiHut (as usual) got this to me in just over a day via Royal Mail with the basic postage. Happy with everything!”
“brilliant piece of kit, hoping to implement in many future projects such as drones and smart mirrors, currently building a raspberry pi laptop and will use it to help with learning python, great bang for your buck and is great for learning”
