“Certain things like the AI Kit, can have screws that are too short, at least on the bottom, as this case stacks up, not sure whether removing a piece can work?
It is meant to be an overall case to protect the base Pi, somewhat, not sure about shock damage but least the Pi is not out in the open completely but also not too covered up like the usual cases, so this is nice to be able to see inside.
My other concern is also the impact on temperature, with the active cooler its ok hovers around 55'c but could be improved I think.”
“Unfortunately I found out too late that the case is NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE NVME BASE since it is not made clear on the product page. Hacking it to make it fit doesn't seem possible, at least with the extremely short ribbon cable of the base, so as it stands I bought it for nothing. It seems to fit well with a bare RPi 5 however.”
“Have bought a total of 6 of these PiBow Coupe 5 cases since they were released for Pi5, having already bought and used the earlier models, back to the Pi1.
Simple to build, look good and function well.
Highly recommended.”
