After the unexpected interest from the photo I posted on X / Bluesky of my collection of Raspberry Pi SBCs, I thought I'd quickly throw together this little video to show you the collection in a bit more detail and explain why I actually have them.

This tutorial will walk you through configuring Home Assistant to send your heat pump entities to emoncms.org. It’ll also show you how to install and configure emoncms locally as a Home Assistant add-on and how to send your data to that installation instead of in the cloud. I’ll then show you how to configure your data feeds in emoncms, whether that’s locally or in the cloud, and how to configure the My Heatpump app to share your data to heatpumpmonitor.org. Finally I’ll also show you how to achieve a hybrid approach of storing your data locally whilst also synchronising it to the cloud for displaying on heatpumpmonitor.org. Add-on Repo for emoncms: https://github.com/Open-Building-Management/emoncms Sample configurations for emoncms.
