      Hi Mat, anodizing is only black at the moment, though custom order can be colored in any color you like. Also cases can be laser engraved. For more details check your email.

    Thanks in advance.

      Hi Anthan, I expect to have new cases in a month. Nothing has been changed in this batch – old heat-sink covers RPI2 CPU pretty decently.

    I do not see an access slot in case for the VESA connector. Is that a custom modification?

      Hi Phil, separate adapter has to be made to fit VESA mount. It’s pretty simple – let me know if you are interested.

      | Quote | #34

      Hi Phil, DSI is unused in RPI, so it’s kind of useless making a slot. But if you need one, you can use large slot at the side of case. Or if having DSI slot in the right spot is crucial for your application let me know – there is no problem making it in new revision.

    Hi,

    I just received the enclosure I ordered. It’s incredible and I intend to order a few more in the future. I too would be interested in the information that Brice asked for above, as I’m also looking at a DB-9 connector.

    The only downside I’ve found is that Switzerland is not part of the EU and I get hit with import taxes, which is never fun.

    Are there any options for minimizing such taxes, such as having you (the seller) deduct EU taxes and add Swiss taxes? (Naturally I, the buyer, would pay such taxes.) I know that other shops like Amazon can do this, but I have no idea as to the amount of administrative work required. Maybe distribute it through Amazon’s “Fulfilled by Amazon” service (you send it a bunch to their warehouse, they handle the inventory and shipping)?

    I ask because I know several people outside of the EU (in the US, in particular) who would be interested in buying several cases but the import taxes and shipping can be quite high.

    Thanks!
    -Pete

    Hi Saulius,

    I just received the enclosure, it is definitely a piece of art! Well done indeed.
    Are the thermal pads required for a RPi B+? I do not intend to overclock it, but I do intend to use a small shield and the thermal would be in the way. Appreciate your thoughts.

    Best regards,
    Rob

      Hi Rob,

      Glad to hear you liked it! Thermal pads are optional and with this massive aluminum case it will stay pretty cool even if you overclock it.

      Hi Dimitar, making it to be compatible with internal wifi means some part has to be made of plastic this complicates design and increases price. So for now I have no plans making it fully internal WiFi friendly.

      Also if you need to use WiFi at close range it works without any modifications.

    Hello Saulius! :)

    I was looking for an elegant case for my RPi3, in order to utilise it as a networked media player. I was disappointed when I found out in the drawings that there is a long slot with 4 holes for screws on the front side (opposite of the side that the HDMI port is located). Whilst this is useful for makers for utilising the GPIO, it will look plain ugly next to my TV set, so it’s a no-no for me.

    Are there any plans to produce in the foreseeable future a more media-oriented, stylish case without this feature? Probably not, I guess, but it is better to ask than presume and look away.

    Otherwise it’s probably the best looking case I’ve come across. Congrats for this :)

    Sveiki,
    Noriu paklausti, nedarant RPi3 dėžutes modifikacijų, kiek stipriai realiai yra slopinamas WiFi signalas? Turiu vieną netipinį projektą kur RPi veikia kaip WiFi AP prie kurio jungiasi plančetinis kompiuteris. Atstumas tarp įrenginių max 2m.
    Dėkoju už atsakymą,

    Hello!

    Is there any chance you will be making a new revision for Pi 4 ? (and/or maybe Zero ?)

    I have your cases for my Pi 2 and Pi3 and they are just so much better quality and fitment than anything else available to purchase!

    Thanks.
