Hi... I am totally new to Raspberry but I am sure I will manage... I program in php & js.
I am currently converting a truck into a campoer and I want to use rpi for 2 projects: media center (movie, music...) & home automation (controlling lights & other electrical components with voice like Alexa).
I bought a pi4, 7" screen & 16-relay model from Sequent Microsystems. These components will be in a large casing with other electronics.
1/ Should I add a cooling fan? How?
2/ Can I run both projects on same pi4?
3/ I guess I will need an external microphone (as the pi will not be where the mike should be)
4/ I have 12v & 24v DC... what power supply will I need?
5/ What other components should I need to realise these 2 projects?
