What would be yalls recommended way of setting up a lightning node?

The cheapest & most reliable way to do this is probably getting a good old laptop, right?

But I kinda want to integrate the node into this 3D printed BitAxe stand so I would prefer a Pi or sth like that.

So I wonder: Pi 4, Pi 5, which Pi case, 1 or 2 TB, maybe some LED action or oversized cooling systems?

Any recommendations?

Pi4 w/ 1T don't cut the mustard anymore. These days you need much more power and 2T - Especially if you plan to do LN and other stuff (BTCpay etc) with it.

Keep it simple dawg just use a PC

Mini pc is like 60$

Use CLN for a low end, personal use lightning node.

Intel NUC for low power.

Or eBay "mini PC no os"
