<li><b>LoRa.</b> [[LoRa]] is a long-range, low-bandwidth radio protocol. I could bring an antenna out, and use the Arduino together with a LoRa chip.</li> | <li><b>LoRa.</b> [[LoRa]] is a long-range, low-bandwidth radio protocol.

<li><b>Battery for the CCFL.</b> It would be nice to have some light when I'm working inside the machine. If I could provide selectable battery-based backup for these rods, that would be useful.</li> | <li><b>Battery for the CCFL.</b> It would be nice to have some light when I'm working inside the machine.

<li><b>PID control for fans/pumps.</b> The Proportional-Integral-Derivative controller is a simple feedback mechanism that I suspect would work well with fans and pumps. I don't care how many RPM my fans are spinning at; what I care about is how warm my coolant and components are (and noise). I'd like to set up target ΔTs (as a function of ambient temp) and a target noise ceiling, and use an inline sensor, an ambient sensor, and an acoustic sensor in combination to manage my loop's active components.</li> | <li><b>PID control for fans/pumps.</b> The Proportional-Integral-Derivative controller is a simple feedback mechanism that I suspect would work well with fans and pumps.
