    Hi

    I am planning to use in our remote sites.
    Can i keep tinypilot connected on power forever?
    As remote sites are always on and server dont have remote management port.
    Your tinypilot is working perfectly but i am not sure if i can keep powered on forever

      Hi @phcsmile, thanks for your question!

      Yes - many TinyPilot users run their device continuously without power cycling in similar environments, so this is a common use case.

      If you do decide to run your TinyPilot continuously, I would recommend that you enable TinyPilot's read-only filesystem after you've set up the TinyPilot device on location. The read-only filesystem will reduce the amount of read/write activity on TinyPilot's microSD card, prolonging the lifespan of the microSD card and increasing reliability.

      I hope that helps! Please let me know if you have any questions.
