I'm trying to use a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W inside a mobile enclosure and having some antenna strength issues. In the past I've tried buying some usb wifi adapters but have been hitting issues with some chipsets not playing nicely with Linux :roll:

So two fold question here, if I was to get a ...

Re: Chrony not updating from GPS


Hi @abishur from your post I'm not sure what gps module you are using - is it a HAT?

Just for reference one of the time server builds we use, it's built around the Pi4 and the Uputronics GPS RTC HAT https://store.uputronics.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=60_64&product_id=81

Chrony not updating from GPS

I'm using a GPS module to poll for time for my raspberry pi with a pps output and have an RTC module I'm using to preserve time during power loss situations. However I'm having 2 main issues

1) GPS data is not automatically started after a reboot (must manually start cgps)
2) Chrony refuses to use ...

I just tested it out, and no you cannot log into the Microsoft account on the pi yet. Hopefully Microsoft gets around to porting the new version of their launcher to Linux so we can get a pi version sometime soon. :(

Re: Pi 4 outdoor enclosure


To supply 3 amps for 10 hours your battery must be at least 30Ah (or 300,000mAh)


You sure about that math there? ;)

30 Ah to mAh would be 30 * 1000 or 30,000. I do believe you've added an extra zero onto your math.

The power bank I purchased *claims* to do 36,000 mAh, but the last one I ...

Re: Pi 4 outdoor enclosure

nice! Yeah, it will connect through my cell acting as a hot spot. I've picked out a battery bank that should give me 10 hours when pulling 3 Amps (assuming it's being honest about its capacity), but it's also solar, so if it's as sunny as I expect I might get 300 mAH back each hour.

And have it come into direct contact with outer case with some thermal compound between them. 🤔

The only issue I forsee is that case will also transfer heat back to the pi. It ...
