Solved Idea - Raspberry Pi SBC Temperature

[dynam1c]

Hi Team

The Ideas forum seems to be limited to only large partners, and these marge partners may not use the Pi platform. Could someone with the appropriate rights consider adding an idea for me?

I'd like to see the SBC Statistics tab show the Pi temperature for potential troubleshooting purposes. This could potentially be used to identify a stopped fan in a fan case, or where passive cooling needs to be changed to active cooling. Perhaps this field only shows if the SBC detects it is running on a Pi.

Perhaps a Version 2 of this could expand to be 'system temperature' field where a wider variety pf CPU Temperatures could be included.

Thanks,
Mike

You don’t need any of that. I have them setup and they run cool and hardly any memory or cpu usage. And I have about 20 extension behind each one.

If you buy any of our suggested "build" then you will have no issue with the temp of the PI or follow a similar approach on DIY

I install oversized heat sinks on all my pies

Hi Team. Thanks for your thoughts.

My request is intended for remote troubleshooting unusual circumstances, where there is a problem and I'm looking to identify the source of this problem. There may be a QC problem with the Pi itself or with heat dissipation, or with the environment the Pi is in. My request still stands.

I will also look at the Pimoroni pre-built kids. The quality looks great!

Cheers
Mike
