Wow that's quite a setup! Good idea using the thin client. Love the ideas.

I think I found this in the Home Assistant forums, which are generally a great resource. I'd also warn that you might want to be careful going this route. It wasn't quite as straightforward as just popping the SSD in and installing an OS. IIRC, and I know I don't recall why, I had to DD a disk image to it. That said, there are lots of these thin clients all over ebay where it is literally that easy.
