I have used the pi for several nodes on my HA and it works great except for the SD corruption issue when power is lost. I addressed this for some nodes by a DIY power over ethernet from a UPS in my wiring closet. But I have a location that can't easily be done that way so looking at options.
I could do what I want with a small python script on a linux box and an arduino for sensor inputs (although an audio output would be nice) so am contemplating an arduino connected to the USB connector of a router running ddwrt.
Any other low cost options? I already have ddwrt router at the needed location.
