All solid advice, though I mostly prefer to use the Zero W-s, which need less power, and to boot off a decent sd card into the 'overlay filesystem'[1] which is RAM-only, so writing logfiles etc. doesn't wear out the sd card (I also use 'high endurance' sd cards intended for dashcams etc. which are a little slower but theoretically last longer). I have a couple of Pis that have been running for years this way, no probs.
