My Raspberry Pi 1B+ has been opening garage and letting me know of the conditions for work nearly 4 years. Recently I’ve decided to replace this 2014 small board computer (SBC) with newer version. I’ve also looked at better (the principle Keep it Small and Simple – KISS) solutions that became available – i.e. ESP Easy on ESP8266 (controlling the relay and reading the contact switch is not too much for this platform, even with addition of environmental sensors), but after some thinking – the option of leaving the Raspberry Pi in place won because of one additional perk that I wanted to handle – a classic water meter. Yes, such an old analogue water meter. Fun!
