“After buying the tv hat, I had to have a deconstructed pi on my desk, all for the sake of a 5mm hole. This PiHut case is absolutely brilliant, has great air flow, it’s well made, fits together with no hassle, and looks pretty good. Think I’m going to order the mounting bracket to attach the pi to the tv soon. Very impressed with the company”
“Took about 5 minutes to build this case using instructions available on this site.
The version sold in July 2020 has sidewalls for both pi3 and pi4 builds included, and as the whole thing is bolt-together the sides can be swapped-in / out as required if changing from one pi version to another.
Build is good quality and solid, with ventilation working well.”
“Good looking case, but had connection issues when following assembly steps provided. Found I had to attach the header to the hat, then plug on to the Pi, rather than how the instructions say so.”
“Standoffs were fractionally too long so the HAT did not make good contact and worked only intermittently. Swapped them for shorter ones but now the screws in the top are too short.”
“The case itself is simple to assemble and looks pretty nice. Only issue I have found is that you cannot add a fan to the precut hole when you have a tvhat installed as there is no GPIO extender for the fan power and the fan does not have clearance away from the tvhat.”
