All it's doing is running a browser with an always on dashboard, but every time weewx runs its archive interval I get a low-power set of messages in syslog saying that even that is pushing the borderline power a little too far. It's very repeatable. The pi are 'very' sensitive to borderline power being provided...--You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
