Raspberry Pi Model A+ Enclosure

This case is built exclusively for the Raspberry Pi Model A+. It is made from ultra-durable, super-glossy polycarbonate with a smoke base and clear top. The Pi snaps securely into the base and the lid fits snugly on top. It provides a basic, classic enclosure for the single-board computer.

Sustained Use and Access

The polycarbonate construction is tough enough to survive daily transport in a bookbag or toolbox. Slim openings allow all cables to remain connected while the case is closed. An easy-to-remove beveled slot gives quick access to the Micro SD card without opening the enclosure.

Build Details and Expansion

The base measures 73mm x 63mm x 26mm with a 4mm thick lid and weighs 39g. Dedicated slots accommodate the Pi Camera and Display modules. A GPIO cable can extend through a dedicated space and the lid can be removed to add HATs to the A+ board. The case does not fit Model A, B, B+ or Pi 2 boards.

Questions about this item

Does the polycarbonate case trap heat when the Raspberry Pi A+ runs continuously?

The enclosure uses a smoke base and clear top with slim cable openings and a bevelled Micro SD slot that allow passive airflow around the board.

What Raspberry Pi board is required for this enclosure to work?

The case is designed exclusively for the Raspberry Pi Model A+ and will not fit Model A, B, B+ or Pi 2 boards.

Can I keep a GPIO ribbon cable connected while the lid is on?

A dedicated space in the base lets a GPIO cable extend out so the lid still fits snugly over the 73mm by 63mm footprint.
