OMG, Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W's are available in quantities of more than just one!
Quick, someone buy a HestiaPi or two so I can afford to put in a parts order before they sell out!

What would you grab if you only had the option for a Zero with pre-soldered headers or a Zero 2?
Zero 2. It's a faster CPU, which does make a difference for something even as simple as a thermostat.
Perhaps more importantly, the presoldered headers are only* compatible with the clicky edition of the #HestiaPi. The silent edition solders the headers on the other side.
*Technically, I could leave off the female headers and a pi with pre-soldered headers could be soldered onto the silent edition, but then it would not be easily replacable. So if it ever broke, it'd be very difficult to replace.
Thank you for sharing all this cool shit
