Quantity | Component name | |
1 | × | Raspberry Pi Model B, B+, or Pi 2 B Any model of B (256mb or 512mb) is fine, as is the B+ and Pi 2 B. The Model A and A+ wont work because you need either 2 USB ports or just one and an Ethernet port. Only the B models have these |
1 | × | Wifi Dongle *IMPORTANT* This requires a specific chipset to be an AP. A second normal one can be used in a completely wireless system. I will explain in the instructions |
1 | × | Raspberry Pi Case Any case will do just fine. Nothing is over clocked, so heat shouldnt be an issue |
1 | × | 4gb or larger SD card The B uses full size SD cards, the B+ and Pi 2 use microSD. Make sure you get the right kind for yours |
1 | × | Battery Pack - optional Only necessary if you are going completely wireless |
1 | × | Power Supply At least 1 amp for the B and B+. 2 amps for the Pi 2. Wireless cards use a surprisingly high amount of power, so the more you give it, the better it will work. |
