Both the top and bottom panels are in direct thermal contact with the Raspberry Pi 5 via thermal pads, allowing the entire aluminium enclosure to act as a heatsink -- cooling the CPU, PMU, and wireless module simultaneously. The result is up to 20°C--25°C CPU temperature reduction, completely silently, with no fans or moving parts. A semi-transparent PC wireless window on the case ensures strong Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity is maintained despite the full metal enclosure. Precision CNC machined with an oxidized surface finish, available in Black and Silver. Widely reviewed and recommended by Jeff Geerling, Leepsvideo, CNX Software, Hackster.io, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible with:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raspberry Pi 5 (all RAM variants)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-quality aluminium, precision CNC cut, oxidized surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCooling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Both top and bottom panels thermally coupled to the Pi 5 via thermal pads -- entire enclosure acts as a heatsink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCooling Coverage:\u003c\/strong\u003e CPU, PMU, and wireless module\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCooling Performance:\u003c\/strong\u003e CPU temperature reduction of up to 20°C--25°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCooling Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully passive -- completely silent, no fans, no moving parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWireless:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-transparent PC wireless window maintains strong Wi-Fi and Bluetooth signal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePort Access:\u003c\/strong\u003e Main Raspberry Pi 5 interfaces remain accessible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black (ED-Pi5Case-BB) and Silver (ED-Pi5Case-BS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92 x 59.4 x 25mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"8\" border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2; text-align: left;\"\u003eCategory\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2; text-align: left;\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Device\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRaspberry Pi 5 (all RAM variants)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminium CNC, oxidized surface finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour Options\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack (ED-Pi5Case-BB) | Silver (ED-Pi5Case-BS)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCooling Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePassive (fanless); thermal pads on top and bottom covers + aluminium body\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCooling Coverage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCPU, PMU, and wireless module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCooling Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCPU temperature reduction of up to 20°C--25°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWireless Window\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSemi-transparent PC cover for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth signal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e92 x 59.4 x 25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Hardware\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4x M2.5×11 screws + 1x 1.5mm allen key + 1x button (included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eModel Variants\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBoth models are the same case -- colour is the only difference.
