Raspberry Pi 4 Lightweight Aluminium Alloy Case

With the awesome power of the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B, we’ve found that a lot more Makers are getting involved in Pi Making, as they can now create truly powerful little computers and projects that go can almost match a standard office computer or similar setup. However, as anyone who loves Electronics will know, it’s quite important to keep modules and the bare components safe from external forces and other problems like shorts through metal tables and the like, and that’s why we’ve always got a keen eye out for cool Raspberry Pi Enclosures like this one, so that you can keep your Pi safe, operating at full potential, and performing all of the tasks you need it to.

This Raspberry Pi 4 Lightweight Aluminium Alloy Case features a very minimalistic design, with a tiny height of only 16.4mm and little gaps for the USB and Ethernet ports to stick out. However, while the compact design is very appreciated – and very elegant, if we must admit – one of the key benefits of this case is that the entire case is made from an aluminium alloy, acting as a massive passive heatsink to draw temperatures out from the hot components and radiate it into the air. This is complemented with some handy thermal pads to thermally couple the key heat-generators to the external case, some tiny rubber feet to keep the CNC finned bottom off the table, and a small acrylic side panel that even allows for radio and WiFi signals to escape and do what they need to.

If you need to keep your Raspberry Pi safe from external damage while keeping it relatively cool, but don’t really like the bulkiness or other aspects of other Pi Enclosures, this Lightweight, sleek and arguably beautiful Raspberry Pi 4 Lightweight Aluminium Alloy Case is the ideal option for you.

When it comes to producing unique electronics components and modules, there are very few brands that can provide the quality that Waveshare can. Based in the Futian District in Shenzhen, China, Waveshare are experts in developing electronics to a high standard of quality, which have been thoroughly tested to work seamlessly with corresponding development platforms and systems – such as the E-Ink HATs for Raspberry Pi’s.

What we love most about Waveshare is how they are dedicated to providing quality products, and have moved away from the typical “Made in China” stigma – cheap products with cheap parts and components. Instead, Waveshare understand the value of supplying quality products and building sustainable relationships with international resellers and distributors. They know that consistent quality will result in consistent business, and as such they always ensure strict quality control for each and every product that comes out of the manufacturing plant.

We are always excited to peruse through their vast catalogue of exciting new products to find unique modules, components or even entire development boards that are designed with quality in mind. Because we know that every cent that we spend with Waveshare will be well-spent, with each product that order adding real value to our own catalogue of products.
