3.4W at idle _is_ a lot - this is x64 territory. Many laptops use less (with the screen on!). Also this is a drum I beat a lot but RPi i just not great for server use (no ARMv8 crypto extensions for example). I am sure you could find a viable alternative that sits under 2W at idle. Rock Pi S maybe? Not sure if it is still available.
- yomlica8 3y agoDoesn't the pi zero use much less? To me the zero is the more interesting of the pis. The Pi4 is more performant but I felt its power usage was to high for ultra low power and at that point I'd probably just use x86. But it seems like a popular product.
