Hello everyone,

may be a stupid question - but I am not that experienced with Raspberry-Pi and its capabilities. 

I have eBlocker running on Raspberry-Pi. Runs perfectly. For my home, we are about installing photovoltaics and want to take advantage of surplus loading together with an electric vehicle. For that purpose, another Raspberry-Pi application "evcc" is recommended in order to control the power flow of the photovoltaics system. 

I wonder if I should or could reuse the existing Raspberry-Pi hardware serving eBlocker today also for that addtional evcc-service, or if there is anything technical which suggests to better use, for example, a dedicated, separate hardware for evcc instead.

I guess the question can be raised more general, if one should/could use the R-PI hardware serving eBlocker also for different purposes or better just use it for eblocker.

Would be glad if someone can give some useful comments on this - thanks in advance!

@mr-bien For security purposes eBlocker is designed to run as the only application on a Raspberry Pi.

Especially tech novices should not tamper with the security hardened eBlocker system ie. by trying to run other (maybe insecure) applications. Your own security may be at risk otherwise.

THX!
