Answer questions your thermostat can't. A thermostat knows the setpoint. HSM IV knows what the system actually did: how many minutes the blower ran today, how long each cycle lasted, how long the house held temperature between cycles, and what the indoor and outdoor conditions were at the time. Over days and weeks, that data answers real questions: • Is my system short-cycling? • Which thermostat setpoint gives long, efficient cycles instead of frequent short ones? • How does runtime track outdoor temperature? (Runtime per degree-day is your building's thermal signature — a sudden change flags a filter, refrigerant, or duct problem before the utility bill does.) • Is the system degrading over time? No electrical connection to your HVAC system. Blower detection is purely mechanical — an MPU-6050 IMU sensing vibration from outside the blower enclosure. Nothing is wired into the furnace or air handler. Nothing voids a warranty, nothing touches line voltage, and the whole monitor installs and removes without a trace — ideal for renters and apartments. Owns its data. Every event is logged twice: locally to the ESP32's flash (LittleFS, retrievable over FTP) and to a perpetual Google Sheet that rolls month-to-month and year-to-year automatically. No cloud subscription, no vendor account, no app. Survives real-world conditions. Runtime totals persist through power failures via NVS flash storage. A reset-reason log distinguishes normal power cycles from brownouts and watchdog resets. If the outdoor sensor node goes silent, its columns log "Offline" instead of silently repeating stale data. The outside node itself runs for years on battery power alone. Complete README.md README.md includes Nordic Power Profiler Kit 2 Observations of the Outside ~50 µA average current BME280 Node.

Also, I can't see any detailed specs on the CPU cores or NPU either, so hard to tell how fast prefill/prompt processing would go. I don't know of any recent MoE models that would be a good fit off the top of my head, Qwen1.5-MoE-A2.7B looks like a good option but it's old, or Gemma 4 12B is newer but dense. It would be fun to experiment with these in a RoadTest though. The real killer would be Qwen3.6-35B-A3B on a 32GB variant.https://community.element14.com/products/arduino/f/arduino-forum/56978/are-you-looking-out-for-the-arduino-ventuno-q/236031Mon, 08 Jun 2026 16:34:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:69b3f833-448d-4fc2-963c-7912cf492240balajivan1995MCU + MPU ☺ 16GB LPDDR5 ☺ Triband wifi ☺ Lots of expansion ports ☺ 64GB eMMC storage Can't believe they cheaped out on storage.

Specifically, a design challenge. I am more looking for a product like to one currently open for the road test. RedPitaya. The advantage is that this device can be used as many different ways. For exmaple, it can work as oscilloscope or VNA or other Test and measurement instrument which makes it cheaper and easier to get the functionality without buying costly dedicated instrument. Many of us are developer or maker or a hobbyist and that could save us some money. If it can than why not?https://community.element14.com/products/arduino/f/arduino-forum/56978/are-you-looking-out-for-the-arduino-ventuno-q/235790Sat, 23 May 2026 19:17:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:30f5892d-2986-448b-8698-81c9e1271836DABIf I had the time, this might be a good board to build an all sky camera system. It could also look at clouds and possibly lightning.https://community.element14.com/products/arduino/f/arduino-forum/56978/are-you-looking-out-for-the-arduino-ventuno-q/235788Sat, 23 May 2026 17:38:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:77eb4fb8-0cca-4abf-b59d-947526dc5ecakk99I have registered for notification when it will be available. I am looking for a board that has support for NVMe and USB-C Display Mode. It may be good to try something different than Raspberry with hardware support for AI accelerators. I previously took part in the development of BeagleV Starlight JH7100, so it will be nice to see how it performs in comparison to, e.g., SpaceMit K3.https://community.element14.com/products/arduino/f/arduino-forum/56978/are-you-looking-out-for-the-arduino-ventuno-q/235787Sat, 23 May 2026 17:19:00 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:9f4683fd-ceea-449c-a727-3a55a4f33b8askruglewiczI agree gentlemen, I'm excited for the expanded memory myself
