[Edit] - I just checked out with a few on these on the cart and the 'free postage' option is greyed out for 'a better customer experience' (BS) - I was only able to selecte postage with tracking which is a bit cheeky! Bought it anyways…

  Any idea about the ventilation of the case? Apparently no holes for air to flow.

  •

    There's 4 semi circular fan vent holes surrounding the raspberry icon.

        Jaycar should have them, make sure you get a centralised screwdriver to install it though.

    kiwijunglist on 10/01/2018 - 08:42

    There are holes. 4x holes. Curved. Very small. Fan audible. I think air flow limited by crap fan and thin holes. However pi doesn't get hot usually. There is no space to add a regukar sized heatsink to the cpu under the fan. I think it is a nice case. Look on the pictures. You will see holes in some photos. You get one with holes don't worry.

    Case includes fan and screwdriver. No hestsinks

  Great price. I listed both of these in my post as well but worth highlighting them again. Rep says it's part of a lightning deal so it could be limited to the first 100 orders or by a certain time. @AMLagonda, check back on my post @ around 6PM AEDT as the rep will send me a new code to the the Raspberry Pi 3 for US$27.50 again.

  Decent case although the fan is a little noisy - moved my pi to another room because of it

• 

  solidussnake on 10/01/2018 - 08:50

  I have the case! its come with all the screws and a screw driver fan is nice and quiet and runs cool. Im using it to play ps1 n64 etc on it.

  ebenezer7 on 10/01/2018 - 09:27

  Nice looking case. Maybe I need another RPi so I have an excuse to buy another case…

  Coming up as USD $ 12.99 for me. Is there something I need to do to get the $9.40 price?

  Livert on 10/01/2018 - 12:33

  Just bought this cheap one at Gearbest. https://www.gearbest.com/raspberry-pi/pp_425004.html Comes with heatsinks too.

  • 

    kiwijunglist on 11/01/2018 - 12:19

    It states for pi 1/2b

    • 

      Livert on 11/01/2018 - 14:26

      Fits them all supposedly. Pretty sure they have the same ports layout.

• 

  FabMan on 10/01/2018 - 13:57

  Case price has increased.

  Get the transparent case plus the mountable fan for $9 USD and you can see you Raspberry Pi too!

  Also, CashRewards gives 5% back.

      Bought the case in late November, and it still hasn't arrived in Brisbane, Australia.
      Would like to buy a second RaspberyPi 3, the 16 in 1 DIY sensor kit, and a case for it - but am concerned about never receiving it… (and the sensor kit is no longer at the cheap price).

  In case anyone reads this, just curious whether you run the fan as an intake or exhaust?
