Is there a recommended USBC battery pack that could power this as a portable setup?
JaneYu Sorry, we don't have a recommended USBC battery pack. Because the Sigma draws a lot of power, we recommend a USBC 90W or higher input.
I would just like to express my interest, along with others who have made similar comments, in a larger RAM pool. Best would be 2 x SODIMM so we could install our own memory, but 32GB and 64GB versions would be excellent. I run a miniforums EliteMini HX90, which provides several cores, and selectable memory / SSD all running ProxMox.
The LattePanda Sigma, would be an excellent ProxMox server for work and for fun if we can boost the RAM up a bit to 32GB / 64GB.
JaneYu The 32GB memory version is coming soon. In your project, what is the capacity of the SSD and what is the speed requirement for the SSD?
Sigma is a so exciting SBC product. By the way, is there anyone who can share the weight info of sigma?
JaneYu Yes, and that's great for storage - but 16GB RAM isn't enough for my purposes so the option to increase it would be good.

Sigma has the GPIO for Arduino and system.Pls check the Hardware Interface: https://docs.lattepanda.com...
Pls refer to the Physical Programming: https://docs.lattepanda.com...
You can also use the python pingpong library.(https://pypi.org/project/pi...
We will update the tutorial about the pinpong library in the future.
