Review on Waveshare Power Over Ethernet (PoE) HAT For Raspberry Pi 4B/3B+ by Rick Ross

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Awesome hat! So much expandability!

This hat works great! The 5V USB output and 12V 2 pin output allowed me to add so many cool things to my home assistant that I would otherwise have had to use separate power inputs for. Super cool 😎 The only downside is that the supplied fan is badly stored after only a week of use. That's annoying AF, so I usually disable the fan with the built-in switch. It would be nice to replace the fan with a better one with bearings that don't fail as quickly, but maybe I just drew a short straw.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Available in black only
