Credit Card Size
HelpRouter is based on Raspberry Pi 5, only credit card size. Your entire development infrastructure fits in your laptop bag with no burden.
Emma’s review: “Its ultra-compact size adds no burden at all—HelpRouter has become my portable, always-consistent development environment.”
USB-C Power
One USB-C cable solves power needs.
Laptop Charger: Any 65W+ charger works Power Bank: 20,000mAh power bank provides 8+ hours runtime Vehicle USB: Continuous operation even in cars Solar Charging: Works in outdoor scenarios too
Power consumption lower than a laptop charger. Standard 5V 5A power, available anywhere.
Economical
Hardware Cost: Raspberry Pi 5 + accessories, total cost far below traditional enterprise equipment
No Monthly Fees: Unlike cloud services requiring continuous payments. One-time investment, long-term use
Time Savings: Save 5-8 hours weekly on network configuration. Calculate by hourly rate, pays for itself in weeks
Multi-Device Consolidation: One device replaces the purchase cost of router, NAS, and server
Low Power Operation
Raspberry Pi 5’s ARM architecture is extremely power-efficient. Run 24/7, monthly electricity cost negligible.
Even running 5-10 Docker containers, power consumption still far below traditional x86 servers.
Environmentally friendly and economical.
True Portability
Not just small size, but truly portable and ready to use anywhere.
Runs on power bank during flights. Takes no space in hotel rooms. Unobtrusive in client meeting rooms.
Professional capability, consumer-level portability.
Long-Term Reliability
Raspberry Pi platform mature and stable, global community support. SD card or SSD storage reliable and durable.
Fanless design, no mechanical parts, extremely low failure rate.
Configure once, use for years.
Compact size, professional capability, economically priced.
