Kind of a silly post, to be sure, but figured I'd put it up for the sake of the community...
I'm relatively new to the Ubiquiti community, buying my first gear a few months back. I wanted more control, more performance, or more options to fiddle with. I started with a UDM-SE, a U6E and two U6 Extenders. They've been great and significantly improved my overall performance.
But the rabbit hole opened up, next was a rack, then some UPSs. Then a SW24E (because I needed that 2.5G port for the U6E, right? The nest cameras were sold to get some Ubiquiti ones, a UNVR was just acquired. Getting a Doorbell Pro is only a matter of time, cause I need to get rid of that nest doorbell. I keep looking on line for used Ubiquiti gear on line (that's how I ended up with the UNVR and one of the cameras). I keep trying to think of reasons for other gear.
I've never really had a collector mentality for anything, but for some reason the Ubiquiti gear has trigger it. I've apparently drank (and am swimming) in the kool-aid. Anyone else need an intervention?
I'm doing it, too. The room my rack will go in won't ready til later this year but I got a UDMSE, U6 Pro, U6 In-wall, Flex Switch anyway. All running in temporary spots until I can get my home runs run. I have a 24 port PoE switch, 5 cameras and a doorbell yet to go.
I'm already looking at trying to integrate some IoT lights/shades/whatever via Lutron or Homekit. Can't do that for a few months either but it will give me time to figure it out.
