Hi all, completely new to HA and looking to dive in and get started but not sure if I should be going for the green or the Yellow. Currently I have the 5 Tapo cameras, a couple of lights and intend to add a blind control, vacuum and maybe a couple of sensors. is the Green able to handle all this?

Hello @outer trellis,
More than 3 cameras, I would not use a green. Use a Yellow with a larger CM module and memory more than 4gb. Or just get an N100 Beelink type device.

That would do cameras nicely, keep up with frigate or whatever you will run them with.
