“Pi4 and the TV Hat fits ok. I would have liked room and the connections for a fan as it can run a bit hot. It is ok when using it to watch TV but if you want to watch Youtube on the Pi4 I have seen the temp go into the 80s! Normally it stays around 60-70 deg C with heat sinks so dont worry. Why dont they make a TV Hat case for a Pi5? It can run fine with the fan and stay cool.”
“Once I figured it out the assembly went quickly and it looks good.
I'm not giving it 5 stars though because The Pi Hut shipped this in a box in a box(!!) although the components to build the case are small flat sheets of plastic that would have easily fit in simple mailing envelope, saving on shipping charges and me needing to be home to receive it because the ridiculously unnecessarily large box didn't fit in my letterbox.
The other problem was the very long delivery time because these simple small pieces of plastic had to go through customs because it was a shipment from the UK to the EU.”
“Good product, no assembly instructions but if you have the pictures to hand on the website it’s totally doable.
No room for a fan but the Pi 4 seems to operate at around 60C idling in this case with the TV HAT and hasn’t thermal throttled on me!
Very happy with it, looks the part too!”
“Looks nice and does the job, however, the instructions say not to worry about the gap between the hat and the GPIO pins, but I found that the gap was too big and stopped the tuner from working properly. I managed to get around this by slightly raising the GPIO riser block off of the Pi ever so slightly”
