Home Assistant Enthusiast Bundle ODROID-N2+ 2GB/16GB eMMC

NOTES

• *In some rare cases if you are able to access port "4357" but you cannot access port "8123" after the first boot, you will need to follow instructions from Appendix A of our printed guide to be able to access the Home Assistant Interface. You can also watch this short tutorial below with step-by-step instructions.

How does this compare to the Home Assistant Yellow (formerly Amber)?

• The Home Assistant Standard N2+ Bundle has 2 extra CPU cores, twice the RAM, and 4 times the eMMC storage as the standard Yellow version, but the Standard bundle has a lower cost.
• The Home Assistant Standard XU4 Bundle has 4 extra CPU cores and 4 times the microSD storage as the standard Yellow version, at a much lower cost.
• The Standard N2+ Bundle has 4x USB 3.0 ports and 1x USB OTG port, while the Standard XU4 Bundle has 2x USB 3.0 ports and 1x USB 2.0 ports, where the Yellow has 2x USB 2.0 and 1x USB-C 2.0 ports.
• The Zigbee functionality is included on the Yellow whereas if this functionality is desired on the Standard N2+ Bundle, it would have to be added via USB, which would bring the Standard Bundle's price slightly higher than the Yellow. The Standard XU4 Bundle would still be less expensive than the Yellow with the Zigbee functionality added. This functionality can be added using the Home Assistant SkyConnect Dongle or the SONOFF Zigbee Dongle.
  
• The Yellow includes an integrated M.2 expansion slot, as does the ODROID-M1 bundles listed above.
  

• All variants presently available are assembled and tested in California by ameriDroid technicians before our California-based shipping team packages and sends them to our customers.
