SBC inside a CM15A
Tuicemen:
This is a tutorial but you may find it useful.
I had created a pi image doing what you wished.

I never liked using mochad for my home automaton. You may also wish to look at HomeGenie(HG). HA-Bridge has a helper for it so intergration is very simple.
HG will work with the cm11, cm15,and cm19 as well can use other protocols.
HG has timers & schedualing like heyu. The community put together a PiX10Hub image that includes HG and HA-Bridge.

My pi zeroW has been performing well in the moded CM15As at both my off grid place and city residence. Even the one with the addon hat for the extra USB full size ports.
Today I decided it is maybe time for an upgrade and ordered a zerro 2w. It will go into a CM15A too but have yet to decide if it will actually replace one of the older zerro w boards or placed in a different CM15A. ::) :' I'm sure I'll want the full size USB port add on hat for it.

My new Zero W 2 board arrived last week so I've been playing with it a bit deciding just what I want to do with it.
I've been running net core from it and loaded the Raspi 64 bit lite OS to it.
I even ran it from a USB 3 thumb drive with an adaptor not that there is a benefit of the USB 3 as the board only has a USB 2 mini.
I decided to go with a different USB hat then that what is on one of my other boards.
This one has 4 full sized USB 2 ports and the option to power it and the pi from a mini port on it or use the one on the Pi.

This means I have to mod another CM15 case but I'll have easy access to 3 of the 4 USB ports.
Once I have this put together I'll post some pics.
