i have looked into this and i think it will need to have an FCM certification to sell/use in Aus. good news other certs like the FCC one and CE on can help reduce testing. it is probs more of a concern for people to be a supplyer here.

Currently the company BerryBase from Germany has some CM4 in stock:

  • 1GB RAM Lite: 34.33 €
  • 4GB RAM 8GB Flash WiFi/BT: 68.65 €
  • 8GB RAM 32GB Flash WiFi/BT 108.70 €
thorn yacht
#

just looked, 4 and 8GB are gone already

#

hope to find some stock soon, for my own yellow, although that is ordered today, so it will be send out later this year anyway

atomic badge
#

I know it has been said most likely already but does anyone have a Yellow and can advise how it performs? I currently run HASS on a dedicated GenericX86/X64 machine which has 8GB DDR3 and a Core i7-47xx downclocked to 3.10ghz (3.60 stock) and the entire system is set to basically be as quiet as possible.

#

I was going to simply buy myself a Raspi4 and make a small HASS hub, but Yellow might be a good alternative then having to add things to the pi4 for module support additionally as I suspect it comes more kitted out than a stock pi4

#

From what I can see it looks a custom PCB that integrates with a pi4, I just wonder if its worth it over just throwing together a small micro-atx system in the foot print of a regular modem.

thorn yacht
#

It saves loads of power compared to a pc

#

But the compute module is playing a bit of hard to get

atomic badge
thorn yacht
#

currently searching for one myself. Hope to find an 8GB/32GB no wifi variant soon

fresh bough
#

Depends on the full system itself too, modern computers can easily do 15-20w at low idle

#

and will still be a lot more scalable than a pi

#

@atomic badge

#

No, but if you are considering a mini system

#

I downclocked the CPU to like 3.10ghz from 3.6 saves heat and HA is not going really push an i7 of any kind I feel not unless its polling 300+ things a sec

#

My primary system is a dual X5660 with 128GB RAM and 36 spindles plus 10g and coral internally

#

it doesn't pull more than 250w total

#

under load

atomic badge
#

nice

#

My Production machine is is 32GB with a Ryzen 5900X

fresh bough
#

So frankly I couldn't care much about the powerload, even if power prices are up 350% here the last year

#

When I have time I'll probably switch the main system to a dual E5-2660 v2 system with 384GB RAM

atomic badge
#

I would use more memory but honestly DDR5 is well too close to justify buying more DDR4 that said if I wait until ZEN4 launch I can prob get more sticks of DDR4 on the cheap an still be the same trident neos go for 64GB at least

fresh bough
#

DDR5 will probably be overpriced and not worth it in general

atomic badge
fresh bough
#

for regular users already having DDR4

atomic badge
#

I would like ZEN4 though I prefr LGA any day at least if CPU rips out socket as it does with AM4 (fingers X they fix that in the design for AM5) it won't fuck the pins and I can be less gentle about getting it off the heatsink

atomic badge
#

memory it self posts at 4000mhz lol

#

at 3800mhz I get WEAH errors due to FCLK instablity seems to effect the ZEN3 did not get those on ZEN2

fresh bough
#

For regular users, it is more of a showoff than a real performace gain tbh, it does make more sense in HPC for memory intensive loads, but memory is fast enough for 99.99% of regular users at unclocked levels

atomic badge
#

Well that is until the more direct access is available in the traces to allow the memory lanes to basically double as cache for CPU then uplift all around could happen.

#

Would not be surprised if gen2 AM5 has much better 3D stacking or V-Cache that does not come at a core cost.

fresh bough
#

We already have Optane Persistent memory, should suffice by far

#

😉

atomic badge
#

So small form factor is what I would want though for just HA, that said I could give it a ZEN2 CPU and make it shoe box size to double as a NAS or PLEX media server which I run on my main rig but I see HA can run plex inside HA

atomic badge
#

I fear the Yellow might honestly cost by time its build for AUD $ not that far of $250 which if I just throw like $150 more at it I could throw in a small formfactor AM4 build instead with much more I/O and not have to worry about Blue/Wifi none of that and get wifi6 and at least gigabit Eth.

#

I never used a raspi4 in my life either, they are in short supply anyway atm

thorn yacht
#

what are powerprices in australia doing these days?

atomic badge
#

I suspect the raspi4 will never compete with AM4 low cost desktop chip

fresh bough
#

I did consider solar panels, but I haven't bothered yet since I might buy a new house, I spend 35.000kwh per year now

#

could do half of that in solar probably

atomic badge
#

I rather use a pi3 or something to build a smart mirror then HA tbh

thorn yacht
#

you haven't had an energybill of double what you normally pay i guess?

fresh bough
#

Well

#

More than that

#

I used to pay NOK800 a month ($80), these days I pay up to NOK6000 ($600) a month

#

in electricity

#

Parts of it is state subsidized back to me though

thorn yacht
#

i think if i can save enough power in this house, my bill could be back to normal. Both yellow and netgate 2100 will add to that. especially when running on solar

latent fern
#

$600/month seems quite insane

fresh bough
#

The highest so far was $849 @latent fern

#

where $400 of it got state subsidized

latent fern
#

I used to be at $200/month and that was enough to justify solar

Lowest per month I've had was $25

One question. If I have my current HA running on a nvme ssd on a USB enclosure and I want to migrate to HA yellow, is it as simple as removing the SSD from the usb enclosure and plugging it into the nvme slot or the OS itself is different?

fresh bough
#

If you are running haos you would rather do a backup, install, restore imo not sure of the portability of HAOS between systems

humble cave
#

There is/will be an OS specific for the Yellow so backup and restore would be the way to do it

fresh bough
#

I assumed as much

humble cave
#

Presumably because of the pcie but there are other things on the board that need to come through

Yeah same OS, different HW drivers just like all the other HA OS images for different boards

Hello,
I asked **Adaprox **on their new **Kickstarter **for Fingerbot Sense if I could use Home Assistant Yellow project instead of their hub...
This was their response:

Hi,
Fingerbot Sense can be paired with other Zigbee hubs, but since Fingerbot is a special category not accepted as a standard. And its closest category is the switch. So if you are using other Zigbee hubs running on Zigbee standard protocol, then you can only trigger the Fingerbot but are not able to make other changes on settings.
And Zigbee version is a brand new product development in Fingerbot, which requires huge sums of investment for R&D in the new chip. That's the reason why we are charging $3 more than the Bluetooth version.
Thanks,
The Fingerbot Sense Team

#

Should I go for it? Honestly I already feel quite bad about the pathetic 3$ per Fingerbot fee. As they blast Zigbee compatibility everywhere, but then ask for an extra charge.
Bit shady.

thorn yacht
#

is there another way to get the same result from a device?

#

but for what i see when i look into it, this is pretty much worth the money you spend

humble cave
#

Given I have already 30+ Zigbee devices I would also want the Zigbee variant. In terms of support it's probably just a matter of time before someone adds it to the current available options like ZHA/Z2M/deCONZ. That said I definitely wouldn't be wanting to buy their hub but would also not necessarily want to buy them right now for them to just be in a box until they do become supported

fresh bough
#

It will probably work with z2m/zha already tbh, but the whole proprietary ecosystems vibe from their reply puts me off

Hey guys I’m building out a testing unit to prepare and start moving all of my integrations from SmartThings to home assistant. I purchased a cm4 a nvme ssd and a z wave.me pro hat. Currently I was able to flash to newest boot loader and get it to boot using yellow image for 8.1. I am having issues getting the z wave hat to run with out shutting down does anyone have any experience with this z wave module ?

#

Also have a yellow on preorder would like to get all set up to go so I can transition easily when it arrives

Rather that than any off the other parts

#

If I'm new to HA, and with Yellow model being unavailable until the end of the year, what would be the next best option to get started if I mostly want to use Hue lights/sensors w/Inovelli Blue zigbee switches? Yellow kit + try to find the other parts? A NUC (main drawback here is power)? A NAS? I don't mind spending a bit, more concerned with reliability and power usage since it would be on all the time.

#

or just wait for Yellow if I can manage?

humble cave
#

any mini PC is usually a good option. Doesn't have to be an intel NUC per se

#

and it doesn't have to be a 500€ NUC with an i7

#

usff mini pc also a decent option

karmic timber

Hi, new to all this – are the current Home Assistant Yellow prices preorder specials that will change once it's generally available?

Thankfully that part is sorted. I've got my cable modem and router and Hue bridge on a backup so the HA device(s) would go there also.

What's the difference between the developer sample and what the early backers get, if anything? Also, if the developer samples are arriving then does that mean early supporters will also start receiving our orders soon?

thorny hornet
#

The Pilot (or developer) samples are for us to QA test everything before approving everything for Mass Production. We approved the unit itself and this test was more for the packaging.

How hard is it to assemble the yellow kit? Do I need to solder anything or is it just plugging in the parts?

There's no soldering.

It will be pretty straight forward. Screws, some adhesive and clicking into place. We will have a documentation website that will guide you through everything

A quick question on the side regarding the current 31st July delivery date for the Kit.
Is its more of a “will be delivered till then” or a “will be delivered from then on” kind of date?
Because I’m off on vacation mid-end August, and it start cutting pretty close with the date moving back.

#

Also yay for pretty pictures

thorny hornet
#

Deliveries will begin at the end of July. I can't confirm dates for delivery to different regions. You will get an update from Crowd Supply based on if your order will be one of the ones fulfilled and delivery information

Is the aeotec zwave 7 internal chip still supported? I remember we talked about the gpio had enough pins for the expansion card and it worked at that time. I have an unused aeotec zwave 7 exp board and would be cool to have everything embedded into the box

#

Also will the zigbee be locked to zha or will it be free to use other methods?

thorny hornet
#

Yes. The Zwave Internal Chip will still be possible to add.

#

ZHA will be automatically set up and the only fully supported option. Other method may still be possible. There will not be anything locking it down to one specific zigbee integration. It is Silabs so Z2M support isn't perfect yet. We are working with Z2M to find a solution that will be better for these silabs chips

Wont the wifi interfere with the zigbee module? I will check that website as im 6 months in backlog on digikey

humble cave
#

Just because it was WiFi on the board doesn't mean you need/are going to use it

fresh bough
#

Same would apply to Bluetooth too, both in terms of not using and interference possibility

limpid sequoia

Wifi should be disabled by default until you configure a country so it knows on which channels to operate on. At least as far as i remember in regards to CM4 wifi

fresh bough
#

It will on any pi afaik

limpid sequoia

then maybe I just misremembered or it might have been something os specific.
But I'll certainly will turn off wifi on mine to reduce the risk of problems with zigbee and zwave

if I'm understanding correctly, 'new' orders for yellow would still be end-of-year though

Are the CM modules that was ordered with the Yellow being shipped at the same time, or is it still a problem sourcing CM-modules? I ordered the POE-version and CM module. If course Im going to upgrade from the shipped CM that got 2GB ram from what I remember to a 8GB, but I have been on waiting list for 6 months now

If you ordered a Home Assistant Yellow (Standard, not kit) then yes the CM4 will be included

I ordered kit cause the standard doesnt have POE

Does the Yellow board have a watchdog logic? (Which can restart the device in case it freezes)

Does any consumer devices have that? We've had it on enterprise hardware for over two decades, but I've never seen it on consumer hardware

I would love that to be implemented, but I doubt it. I would not be suprised if it comes a V2 especially if CM5 wont fit. When that said I think the case of the blue is much more presentable than the yellow

I am actually clueless to this but I snagged a 8Gb, more can't be worst at least =7

8GB will give you a lot more headroom

Since a rpi can't scale

#

If you choose 4 you are stuck if you reach the max

In the end it depends 😅 I use a 8GB, but it seems overkill for my use case (I run Core with a couple of add-ons like MariaDB/Influx/Visual Studio Code Server, but nothing too crazy)

The number of add-ons I've seen users install on a pi, wowzers

#

"why is my system so slow"

#

Also, 8 makes it reusable for other stuff after eventually moving platforms

It appears the price difference is negligible anyway, $85vs105

#

Depends a lot on store it seems, I also see $70vs95

limpid sequoia
#

How long did it take for the 8 to be all gone? like 20 min?

dusky hollow
#

Don't even think it took that long to be honest. But I think the amount they get is pretty limited. I have gotten e-mail notifications from Welectrons own re-stocking notification service while I have been in front of the machine and the time it took me from reciving the e-mail, logging in, putting it in my basket and then enter checkout wasn't enough to snag one then.

limpid sequoia
#

I somehow got one of them (already have the shipping notification) and i took my sweet time

#

weird

dusky hollow
#

But at least now they still have a 100+ of the 16GB, 4GB Ram version in stock so worst case scenario, grab one of those while they last.
I managed to get a 16/8 this time around so I'm happy.

#

I assume my previous experience was when they got like a singel digit amount or something

limpid sequoia
#

Wasn't the 8gig model at 100+ stock as well at the beginning, or did I mix it up with the 4gig/16?

dusky hollow

I think you are right now when I re-read my post, looks like the lite 8gb version was a 100+ as well.. Wow, thats quick!

limpid sequoia
#

It's like a droplet of water on hot stone... just insane the market right now

Yeah, lets just hope that it's only real end users snagging them and that people arn't trying to make a quick buck of them and resell them.

hybrid path
#

well, you can upgrade the Yellow by swapping the CM4 module.

fresh bough
#

Replacing!=upgrading

shut cedar
# fresh bough It should

If you have the light variant, it will be simple replace. If you use a eMMC variant, the OS is installed on the eMMC by default. Hence you need to do the same on the new module.

fresh bough
#

Yes, hopefully most will opt for nvme and not emmc

shut cedar
#

The default is installing to eMMC when its present, and currently there is no easy way to force the installer to use NVMe

#

There is an advantage of using eMMC: It freeze up bandwith on NVMe 🙂

fresh bough
#

One would think the bandwidth of the nvme would suffice for 99% of the userbase regardless

shut cedar
#

True, but there are two other concerns:

  • Earlier CM4 do not have a firmware capable of booting from NVMe. If we default to NVMe (if present), people might end up in an unbootable system
  • All CM4 will boot from eMMC before NVMe. If there is something stale/present on the eMMC, user will boot into something other than eMMC...

So flashing onto eMMC is the safer opton at this point. That said, I see your point, it would make swapping CM4 much easier... Tradeoffs 😰

fresh bough

Interesting, as always there are tradeoffs with off the shelf consumer stuff

vapid tulip
#

with zigbee device troubleshooting - first question is usually "are you using a usb extension?". With yellow having an on-board zigbee chip that is not able to be moved away from the hardware, should we expect more susceptibility to interference?

wanton tapir
#

The placement of the module is away from most components which can cause interference. The module also is one of the better ones when it comes to isolating interference. (Not affiliated just my opinion and experience with the same SI labs module)

humble cave
#

And there's also no USB3.0 which causes most of the interreference in other boards

vapid tulip

Good to know, thanks both. That also might explain why I've not experienced interference issues without an extension on my pi 3B+ (no USB 3.0)

Have you ordered a seperate CM4 from CrowdSupply alongside the Yellow order? If that's the case, I think the Yellow-Team is not to blame. For those orders CrowdSupply themselves are responsible afaik.

split salmon
#

Hello there! Does anybody know if I could run Home Assistant Supervised on the CM4 and still use all of the features yellow provides (like zigbee for example)? I want to use the CM4 for other docker containers besides HASS and I read on the forums that I should choose HA Supervised then instead of Home Assistant OS.

graceful zealot
#

Supervised only allows you to run add ons as supported containers. If you want to run as container then use HA container and install other containers yourself

Can these containers access zigbee and stuff?

Hello everyone 👋
totally new here. Building a new home for my family...

I'd like fo ask you some questions:

  1. Would you suggest running HA on yellow if J will already have Synology NAS

  2. in which cases one would need additional SSD storage for HA yellow?

  3. why PoE yellow is available only w/o RaspberryPi 4?

fresh bough
#

Depending on what Synology the yellow might be a downgrade, Storage needs depends on add-ons, if you use add-ons, Poe question, no idea

orchid timber
#

Thanks for the answer!

Do I get support for ZigBee and other connections via usb dones on Synology?

Which add-ons require much storage?

fresh bough
#

Yes, you can do usb passthrough,or use Ethernet to serial devices with your Synology

#

I do not know, I don't use add-ons

mystic iron
#

Downgrade is relative. Since everyone going to run this with his, built in ZigBee and most probably slap on a leave and nvme inside it. Yes it's a downgrade from a good Nas, but I would find it much more valuable to have everything local, incl database. The box should not have a single point of failure except power. In my world my ha should run with full ZigBee/zwave on my ups when everything else go to sleep. I push Poe via ups too

I dunno, like, something that's designed for safety critical workloads? I don't know if what you mean is that if HA goes offline then your smoke detectors don't work...

#

I hope not!

Nest is probably my only cloud based device, everything else will work even if internet was down for days

Is there a way to get POE to the non-POE version?

you could put a poe splitter in the network to pull 12v out to power the yellow through the barrel jack (should be 12v?)

#

found several on Amazon on the first try for 10 to 20 bucks

Thank you! I don’t have a POE setup right now but might in the future.

You don't need a full Poe switch for Poe either, just an injector

Thanks for the input.
If you'd have a chance getting HA yellow would you run HA on it or still on NAS?
