House-Number

Goodbye Raspberry Pi 3

The Raspberry Pi that was powering my house number has died. Sadly, a power outage managed to ruin the SD card I had the software running on. I don’t have any surge protection on the house number Pi, so I guess this was kind of expected.

My Raspberry Pi House Number

At some point over the last three years I had decided to make an LED matrix display number for my house. I think my reasoning was something like: “what if I can’t find a font I like? Wait! I can just make a screen do this”.
