What's your favorite board? Also, Seeed Studios (no affiliation) still has one model of CM4 still available for sale, FYI. Be sure to subscribe to my 2nd channel, Geerling Engineering-my Dad and I will test out the BliKVM on it soon! ukposts.info/the/sd6hP-zzIkCpw8XGw7Osyw.html

Brought to you by the man responsible for the CM shortage

That PiGear NANO might solve a problem using the Pi in astrophotography gear. There never seem to be enough USB 3 ports for all the fiddly bits (focusers, cameras, mounts) and cooled astro cameras are heavy power eaters. 2.0 ports just don't win when your single image size is > 40M. I am using the WaveShare board for my CM4 astronomy setup for the simple reason that it has 4 well-powered USB 3 ports. A board with ports AND fast storage would be most excellent. Also, lots of folks (including myself) have used the Pi HQ camera for astro-photography. There is even an INDI driver for it that works reasonably well. It is "OK" for planetary and wide field, but not amazing...though it does work. Great channel, by the way. I enjoy your process and humor.

i never knew this small a formfactor had such a buzzing hardware scene -- haven't felt this excited about hardware in at least 7 years

If we are attaching PIs to telescopes let's not forget some stepper motors!

Well, the idea to have 2nd channel is great. But i suppose all the engineering content will perfectly fit in this channel (imho of course). Great stuff, Jeff! Thank you very much for everything you do! Stay safe and greetings from Siberia!

Thanks for taking the time to share so much knowledge! Your channel is amazing!

Love to see you are getting more and more partners and development boards. Keep it up man✌️👍😊

Always a treat to see more CM4 content! 🙏

The Pi boards, and the CM4 in particular, seem to have become to computing in the 2020s what the Apple ][ was in the 1970s; a starting point for all sorts of inspired devices.

I didn't realize the CM4 was so small! always looking forward to seeing what you're working on

Great roundup of parts, enjoyed this vid thoroughly

You have my sub man ! I like your way of making Videos and your sympathic character.

Great work Jeff.

Looking forward to geerling engineering!

best regards from Poland :) appreciate Your work!

Thanks for the video. Ordered the uugear-board which turns out to be from a Dutch company, so native for me!

That PiGear Nano looks awesome. I'm very much looking forward to the industrial Pi video as I've been wanting to put a Pi/s into a Eurocard frame for some time.

Some very interesting pieces of hardware!

great content, so many possibilities

Thanks Jeff

Thanks Jeff.

Nice Nice Nice. Love to see how the market is coming alive with the CM4's.

Superb Jeff 💞

Just Subbed a few days ago after watching a lot of your videos, I got a Pi400 to learn and tinker about on as Home Assistant looks very powerful after seeing your ZigBee videos Great watching your Videos, i hope you can get your hands on the relay board seeing what it can really do, as it would go great with home assistant i think

Nice job Jeff

Jeff Winfrey is my favourite talk show. You get a flash drive! You get a flash drive! You get a flash drive!

toasty... that's a deep cut. Well done my friend.

Thanks for mentioning motionEye.😀

Most of the technical stuff you talk about... I cannot get my head around. But you always inspire me. Thnx for yet another great video!

My dog LOVED that buzzer, thanks.

Really cool, thanks

We might have the same interest. I am looking at making a Pi do telemetry for a broadcast transmitter. Everything is there some closures to remote control it and analog ports that can read the meters. Just need to tie it all together.

So how much usb do you need? Yes! Love all those Boards and the very different usecases

This is Awesome ❤️

Lots of fun ... thx

Always love watching your Pi-videos :) Any idea when the Radxa Taco will launch? I heard you mentioned it will come bundled with a case, a CM4-module and more? I'm planning my new ZFS ownCloud / Nextcloud server. What would be a good competitor to the Taco?

The most by far intresting one was the sata+ethernet one. Perfect for home Media/File server+router/wifi, basicly own home internet mainfame type of thing.

my favorite board is the one that gives candies! That is why I love my Prusa!

You had me rollin when said Toasty!

It's pretty amazing that I love this channel while only understanding about 20% of what's said.....

Didn't expect to see Krówka here 😂 brings back childhood memories!

The PiGear Nano has really an impressive feature set for serious IIoT use cases. On the normal Pi or for example on the TOFU board you can utilize several HATs with supercaps to initiate a safe shutdown in case of an unexpected power cut off. This is a must have in many IIoT use cases. You would have to create your own solution to face this issue on the PiGear Nano.

For the Pi52 the best is a poe splitter. This way you power the Pi52 with usb-c by using the poe of your switch. Simple and working

The forbidden ZFS NAS setup :D

I use a pi to control my telescope all the time but definitely prefer dedicated asto sensors or even dslrs for taking the images

Great content.. to bad there isn't a CM4 to be had, been trying to get some for several months....

BiKVM ordered! About to order also PiGear Nano! :)

Looking forward to the joint video with Micro Center. That board with all the SATA ports makes for a nice NAS build!

I would love to see more raspberry pi router builds

Bummer on the PoE not working with the Router Board, but I still have an extra CM4 sitting here that I'd like to throw in one of them. Thanks for the vid!

good videos. two meta questions I keep having: - when will CM4 be back in stock? surely at some point these videos become pointless without it - mebe you could tell us a bit about the ecosystem? why are these boards getting made? who is buying them? how do you get a custom one made? decoupling compute from IO is the name of the game, so why can't I spec my own IO?

Steve Buscemi nerd? Im loving it!!

I love your videos! Are you aware of any CM4 baseboard with an SFP port? Would be amazing for a FTTH router!

pozdro z wykopu, MirkoPC :p

"Yo DOG... I heard you like USB. So we got you...a lot of them."

7:26 Nice old school Mortal Kombat reference...

The PiGear NANO whould be amazing for a VERY capable router because it whould be a nice PiHole DNS Server, a print server (both 3D printers and paper printers), a NAS (maybe). Also it has a slot for a 4G card, giving the whole setup redudancy

Hi Jeff, could you also review sometime Armbian for the Raspberry. Looks me really interessting!

MircoPC is superb and never to many usb ports

I have no idea in terms of Programming, Circuitry and all that. But in the end? This is still probably the coolest thing, Why? Because you can increase your space AND! connect many more things. at the cost of having a normal sounding electronic device.

Jeff my son, you always got the best gadgets for tinkerer’s of raspberry pi. I salute you.

BitPiRat is definitely made for running a full Bitcoin ledger node. Rad. How are you Jeff? Hope all is well for you. I'm still Drupalin like crazy. :P Love your channel. I have been tinkering with Pis for a few years and I love to see you push limits on the hardware. Amazing stuff.

Jeff’s meme game on point!

Such a shame they handicapped the CM4 with only a single lane of antiquated PCIe 2.0. Imagine the possibilities that would be opened up if it had even two lanes, or a full four lanes of PCIe 3.0 or 4.0. Even a single SATA3 port is throttled by the PCIe 2.0 interface; let alone multiple USB3, SATA3, 2.5Gbe or 5Gbe, NVMe, etc.

very excited for the Axzez Interceptor

This router board may well be the board i was waiting for. Compared to the other offers, it has everything, and it is not expensive. I like the fact that there is room for the GPIOs and a hat. If i can get hold of it, it may well become my new router until i deploy a pfSense box!

Hi Jeff, what a great video! It's a shame that CM4 boards have gotten so expensive recently. Any chance we get a roundup of cool expansions for the original RPI4?

Picam for Astrophotography, that's just what I've been thinking about for the last few weeks :D

I am actually waiting for some sort of update about the Pi4/CM4 "blades". I remember it was a funny name, but it had a NVMe on it and I believe a CM4, so you could essentially have some sort of mini environment for Kubernetes. I do like all the other updates though and since Christmas 2021 I now have a Pi4b myself (got it as a gift from my wife 😊).

I can't help but feel similar to all the fancy GPU reviews on other channels, love it but mostly an exercise in frustration till availability improves.

I wish I could have half you your knowledge I would be happy

More USB's is great, but to run a GPU or other external devices a PSU is needed. For gaming and so on this is not a major negative since startup costs are low. I like the Pi Gear Nano best plus with a potable solar panel I could use a Pi with a laptop style screen and go online everywhere possible with a cell connection. Good luck with your retail endeavor!!!

It's pretty amazing that the network chip doesnt just burn up or even stop working when it gets too hot. Modern tech is incredible!

That’s a cool coincidence. Axzez is just outside Indianapolis IN.

You can tell Jeff is wound up. RSJ must be waiting in the wings to explode into action, seeing all of those boards in one picture, must be like a cat about to pounce on a mouse.

Mother of god... you have the coolest things! I am so jelly. Like, really.

Subbed to Geerling Engineering and apparently i am SUB No. 100 :)

The entire Raspberry Pi market should pay you for marketing. You should try to get into drop shipping Pi expansion boards. Seriously, every one that I am interested in I can't google up... Oh Geerling did another video on expansion boards... GEERLING!!!! I look forward to that 5x SATA board video.

Those are some cool new toys. Just remember to lock them up so Red Shirt Jeff dosent get his grubby hands on them. 😁

Great !

Well, we're waiting! Start making them videos! LOL.

Lol when the toastie pop in happens when you don't expect it

EngiGeerling would have been a fun name for the channel imho. Thanks for the channel suggestion. :)

Would love to see Pis used with radios. Would also love to see a Pi run cnc steppers.

That's some serious bribery businness, mirko knows how it is

Note to self, if I ever said something to Jeff, include candy as bribery.

Have you got the 52Pi CM4 Router board yet? Any ideas on if we can get the pi to do channel -2 (2.397 GHZ) on 2.4 gig wifi with openwrt? Do any countries support that channel? That's the part 97 ham radio bands.

I am waiting on the CM5. The raspi 5 release is overdue IMHO.

Toasty... ROFL 🤣🤣🤣 flawless victory

Looks like Raspberry Pi is king, so many people develop for it, hardware and software.

Simple thing I assume you or someone has tried but does the PoE for that unit need to be PoE+ or some proprietary PoE injector? I've definitely run in to that as an issue. There are some wacky voltages out there for PoE.

Can you look into that relay control board maybe do a completely DIY smart home with it?

Perfect for a motioneyeos mega ip usb camera server

Duude when was the last time you brushed yo teeth? 😂, ive always liked your videos man, keep it up,,

Great boards, but now we need some CM4! I already have several CM4-based projects lined up and bought all the components... all except for the CM4 which are sold out all over Europe. 😭

Seeing all these boards, I'm bitter that all of my electronic sellers here don't import them. Heck i can't even get the Pi due to the shortage. I think I'm content with single SSD as NAS for now lol.

Before I invest time watching this video, is this Mirko board, like the last Mirko board you talked about, unobtainable? I see no connections anywhere that say, "buy", for either board?

i love this video even though i dont get any of the stuff he is saying

At first i want to make a simple replacment for my phone, just adding a toutchscreen and a sim module. Later i want to make a home web system (file/media server + router + wifi + simple mail server + even simpler basik http web server (isolated)) and it seems there finally is hardware now available the sata and 4 ethernet board in this video. Few other simple projects... And for first advanced project (with own pcb with pi module) i want to make a 2 module so called pocket pc with many functions. 1 module to controll and handle all the hardware, the other to just run the os and apps. Added hardware(more than in the original build) will be a yoistick mouse, SDR and finally the most challenging hardware addon... The sunclasses with built in oled display(i mean i have found some good small dize and good resolution ones but need the perfect, it can cost doble more than everything else combined). So i am playing a computer game blasting(bone induction audio) with full stereo(or be in a zoom call/class with no cam from you but see, hear and can chat with everyone), but walking outside, hand in pocket, with no headset and sound. Later on if all works fine i might make a updated version(more rugged and more industrisl looking) of the classes if a better oled is available or old needs replacment (broken) where i would want to add stereo camera(bright light and night vision), distance laser, and maybe even a dedicated stabilised(zoom camera (or prob as an attachment), directional mic and rf resiver. Basicly try to make a spy headset (it might end up looking something like a nightvision goggles or something) xD Would be cool overall, feel ad a kid again. Prob will still keep the light one still too.
