How hot is your Pi?
13 NovA few of my Raspberry PI projects have been based on Pi Zeroes put in small glass jars showing pretty LEDs. There isn't much airflow or room for cooling in there, so it's worth checking how hot they are getting.
Some quick notes on how to get a Pimoroni Led-Shim widget working on a Pi3 running Kali Linux.
Making a Pi Build Server
07 MarUse a Pi with some blinkenlights to run Jenkins and do continuous builds of stuff from git/svn. The lights provide an immediate indicator of the state of the builds and Jenkins.
After the PiGlow, the next Pimoroni add-on I tried for the Pi Zero was the Scroll pHAT. A little board with a block of 5 x 11 white LEDs.
Big brother to the Blinkt, small brother to the Unicorn HAT, the PHAT version is a 4 x 8 matrix of RGB LEDs.
At £10 it gives you twice as many LEDs per pound as the Blinkt (a 1 x 8 strip of the same LEDs costing £5). But what am I going to do with the extra ranks of multi-coloured shiny sparkles?...
