Does anyone have a lead on where I can get a batch of Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W boards? I need these to continue making HestiaPi thermostats available (smart thermostat, open source hardware & software, no 3rd party servers, no need to become a sysadmin yourself). Digikey is sold out PiShop[.]us limits me to one board per order The pi hut is sold out AdaFruit is sold out Mouser is sold out until 2027 Ordering them one at a time nearly doubles the shipping fees (plus the cost to the environment). I'm willing to pay more than MSRP, but not like 50-100% more! And I want to buy at least 10 of them at a time to save on shipping costs.

Checked some places but they are all sold out aswell. There were some kicking around on eBay but the prices were silly.

No, not entirely anyway. ☹️ All the stuff I make is open: PCB designs and manufacturing files, BOM, etc. It's the best I can do. There's a new model in the works (the Hestia32) which requires self-hosting OpenHAB or Home Assistant which is based on an ESP-32. I'm not sure if that one is 100% open hardware, but it at least has multiple vendors to choose from, specifically because of supply issues like this.
