his well-designed
case for Raspberry
Pi Zero has many great features. The
case is constructed of three individual
components, all of which clip together
easily, offering complete protection. If
you need access to the
GPIO pins, you can simply
snap off the L-shaped piece
of plastic on the top of the
case and get building. A
unique feature is the
separate cover for the SD
card slot. It’s nice to be able
to get easy access to the
card, yet also have it
protected when in use.

FIELD TEST

f you need a lot of heat dissipation with
your Raspberry Pi project, this case may
be a perfect fit for your next build.
Although not a true protective case,
because much of your Raspberry Pi is still
exposed, this aluminium enclosure offers
a lot of protection from heat. If your project runs
a lot of intensive code, then the large aluminium
heatsink, coupled with two fans, will keep your
Raspberry Pi running cool. Just keep in mind those
heatsinks are conductive – you don’t want any of your
circuits touching it and causing a short.
