Looks like Aruba has the most recent firmware available for download here: https://h10145.www1.hpe.com/Downloads/SoftwareReleases.aspx?...
Most recent version is a couple years old, but it was EOLed 3 years ago.
Ruckus firmware seems to be downloadable from their main product page for the R610, updated a month ago.
Re power consumption, it looks like the Aruba pulls around 50W idle, and the Ubiquiti pulls 29W idle. Of course, if I can get rid of the second switch I've been running because the Ubiquiti keeps blocking the Google WiFi ports, that brings it even closer. :-)

You do have to sign up with an account at HP to get the firmware, and it won't let you use a gmail account, but once I signed up I was able to download the latest firmware and update to the latest. Just FYI.
Have you looked at the power consumption of the switch? I've run some enterprise gear at home in the past (my favorite was the E-450 Sun server which an ex-employer gave me for free), but when I started paying for my own power, I found that even if the hardware is free, the power consumption makes it expensive.
