Hi. I am looking at using a cm4 and Waveshare mini io board. For a project I am setting up on my small narrowboat.

As the tiny antique single cylinder diesel engine. Means the boat suffers from a fair bit of vibration. And this will be the first time I have used a CM4.

I was hoping some folks could share there experiance/advice on using CM4 boards in similar rough environments.

I am planning to build a system mounted to din rails with rubber pads to absorb some of the vibration. But any other experience other have can only help.

I'm a retired software engineer so plan to write python scripts. running on rasbian.

As I say. I think I'll get a friend to do the soldering. Smt is a little hard vision wise.

Sounds like a cool project, good luck! Are you going to be publishing updates somewhere as you go? I would be very interested in following along.

Maybe once I have a working example. I planned to take pics of the tank testing. As I have some ideas to use stratification to make things a little more effective when solar is limited.

So will be testing that in my kitchen.
