Also in Aus - I've got a not-quite-as-complex setup, but I do have it all in a purpose-built room in the shed which is fitted out with an old box air-conditioner[0] with a thermostat power controller to keep the room below a certain temperature, which should help to extend the working life of "all the shit in there". Damn it's nice visiting the "cool room" in summer, there isn't enough floor space to sleep in there though.

Also have kids, and they can be demanding when stuff ain't working.

Also second guess my life choices, but then again I also still love playing around with this stuff, knowing that I can maintain the full stack.

[0]: Replacing that old air-con with a (far) more modern small split system could possibly have paid for itself by now in power savings. I think I should look into that.
