RevoPower Home Assistant Hub - Raspberry Pi 5 with Aluminum Case and Preloaded Software

A dedicated “smart home brain” that lives on your home network and runs Home Assistant for you.

What it does (in plain English)

• Gives you a single dashboard to control lights, plugs, switches, sensors, thermostats, cameras, energy monitors, and more.
• Lets you create automations (rules and triggers) across different brands and devices.
• Runs locally on your network, so it’s fast and can keep working even if the internet is down (for devices that support local control).

What it is not

• It’s not a Wi-Fi router.
• It’s not a smart device by itself—it’s the hub/controller and dashboard that ties your smart devices together.

Why this version is nice

• Raspberry Pi 5 (a modern, high-speed Linux computer on a credit-card-sized board) in a finned aluminum passive-cooling case (silent, no moving parts).
• Home Assistant preloaded on a 32GB microSD card—so you’re not starting from scratch.
• Built to be simple: plug it in and get to setup.

Why Home Assistant?

If you haven’t heard of Home Assistant, here are a few benefits:

• Freedom: Home Assistant is open source, meaning it isn’t “owned” by a big tech company trying to profit from your data.
• Compatibility: Without loyalty to any single platform, Home Assistant works with a huge range of popular brands—Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, Android, Philips Hue, Samsung SmartThings, Aqara, Ring, Wyze, Tuya, Shelly, and more.
• Automation: Advanced automation that can cross between smart home brands to create powerful scenarios and triggers (example: voice updates from Alexa based on your battery state of charge).

Includes

• Raspberry Pi 5 installed inside an aluminum passive-cooling housing.
• 32GB microSD card with the latest version of Home Assistant preloaded and installed.
• 5V 4A power supply.
