I bought this to attach to my RPi 5s in their nvme cases (which is the stated reason for them) however they don't fit on the gpio headers when the riser screws are in place. Not specifically a design flaw on the extensions but that the riser holes on the pi are too close to the header.

I plopped the Weather HAT onto a Pi 3B using the ribbon extension cable to mitigate processor heat. I've been getting good data now for a couple of weeks in my middle school tech class as I teach kids about weather metrics--a lead-in to a larger discussion about climate and people. Measuring for an enclosure in the photo.

Extends the GPIO of my Zero 2 W and allows me to use an Enviro board without the CPU temperature affecting the temperature sensor on the Enviro board. It even fit into the Argon Pod GPIO cut-out, albeit with a little force. YMMV with the case, or others, I just seemed to get a good one. Picked the cable up on the cheap and it does the job; has a nice quality to it.

Simple cable, does the job of separating things whilst prototyping.

Well, it's an extension cable - there's little more to be added other than it's a bit stiff and difficult to manipulate. I wanted it to separate my DAC from my Pi to fit in a sweetiepie touchscreen pro case but it wasn't very satisfactory.
