Designed for seamless compatibility with Raspberry Pi 3 B+ and earlier models, it offers full access to all ports and GPIO pins through a smart bottom design. Its sleek, soft-touch finish and rubber feet make it a stylish, functional centerpiece for any tech-savvy professional’s setup. ## Description The Flirc Raspberry Pi case was designed to not only be functional for your Raspberry Pi, but to be drop dead gorgeous. It's made of beautiful aluminum core that is sandwiched between two black, soft touch shells that feel amazing in your hands. But once it's out of your hands, it's deserving to be proudly on display running your favorite media center software. This is the first affordable Raspberry Pi case made out of aluminum. We wanted to ensure we didn't sacrifice form over function, so we used the aluminum housing of the case to provide a built in heat sink. Supplied with the case is a thermal pad and 4 screws for the simplest Raspberry Pi case assembly on the market. It only takes seconds to drop your Raspberry Pi into it's amazing new home and show it off on your counter top. We included rubber feet to raise the enclosure so it just hovers underneath your television. In addition to the built in heat sink, small ventilation slots on the bottom help keep the Raspberry Pi cool. GPIO pins are accessible through the slot on the bottom of the case and there is no need for disassembly to get to the SD card. We know you will love the attention to detail we put in throughout the case. What's New: New manufacturing process with improved design, heatsink fits directly over pi3 CPUi, SD card now easily accessible on the pi3, LED Lights now visible with the pi3 Review: PROs: (Basically everything...) 1. Excellent build quality and materials selection. No visible defects whatsoever. No sprue remnants, no split lines, nothing. Flawless. 2. Every bit as attractive IRL as in the published images - possibly more so. It's really the finest looking gadget-related accessory I've purchased in recent memory. 3. Very tight (in the sense of exact) dimensional tolerances. All port openings line-up perfectly with the ports on my test device. 4. Functionally, the case cools the CPU as advertised. One could only hope for additional heat-sinking of the other IC's, but it's not clear that it matters in my application. CONs: (Hard to cite any...) 1. Instructions concerning the installation of the heat-transfer pad were lacking. Not a big deal. There seems to be some confusion about whether or not to remove both the paper adhesive-patch cover AND the clear, thin adhesive-patch cover on the other side of the pad. FWIW, I removed both. I do not get the sense that it matters which side contacts the CPU and which side contacts the aluminum heat-sink. In fact, it may be acceptable only to remove the paper backing from one side of the conductive foam and to leave the very thin plastic on the other side, if future disassembly and access to the Pi are expected to be necessary. 2. Instructions on exactly how to pivot the Pi into place would have been helpful, given the precision fit. In my experience, it worked best to assemble the unit by (1) removing the SD card so that it does not protrude, (2) removing the backing from one side of the heat-conductive foam and adhering it to the CPU, followed by removal of the backing from the other side of the foam for mating with the top shell heat sink protrusion, (3) holding the metal case upside-down with USB port cut-outs to the right, lowering the farthest (connectorized) edge of the board into place, permitting the power, HDMI and audio connections to mate with the cut-outs in the aluminum case, (4) pivoting the board into its final position lowering the nearest edge gently onto the screw mounts, (5) placing the bottom plastic cover into place, (6) screwing the bottom shell, Pi and top shell together with the four included screws and finally (7) re-inserting the SD card. For me, attempting to insert the Pi3 by other strategy resulted in it binding into an incorrect position and almost refusing to yield for re-positioning. Alternative to my method might be the attachment of the conductive foam to the interior protrusion from the top aluminum cover, if preferred. I haven't tried it. Pleased with the thermal performance, ruggedness and aesthetics, I have purchased two of these cases so far, and I plan to purchase several more of them for use in my application. Review: 2018年12月に「高速冷却アルミ製保護ラズベリーパイケース ブラウン(20018年7月改善版)」を購入した。あまりに性能が良い(冷却効果は抜群)ので買い足そうとしたら、わずか2か月で完売して(2019年2月)既に購入不可。途方に暮れたところで見つけたのがこのケース。 このケースは、CPUの上部に金属柱があり、そこをCPUに接触させて冷却を行うようになっている。 Raspberry pi 3 model B+のCPUはヒートスプレッダが載っている分だけ厚みがあり、従来まで(Raspberry pi 3 model B以前)のRaspberry pi 対応のCPU冷却ケースだと、CPUの厚みがわずかに増している分だけ干渉し、ケースが完全に閉まらない。 英語版で「Raspberry pi 3 model B+では使えません」の報告がいくつかあるが、原因が判明した。このケースに付属している放熱シート自体に厚みがあり、これが邪魔をしていることが判明。つまり、付属品の放熱シートを使わずに、薄手の放熱シートを別に調達すれば、Raspberry pi 3 model B+で利用することが可能になる。 自分は「アイネックス AINEX CPU用熱伝導 両面テープ PA-069」を使っている。 2つのケースを比較してみると 「高速冷却アルミ製保護ラズベリーパイケース(2018年7月改善版)」は ・CPU・NIC・メモリの３つを同時に冷却できる ただしCPU接触面が小さい ・裏面に引っ掛け穴があり、壁掛けが可能 ・堅牢だが無骨、デザイン性には欠ける。いかにも「業務用」といった感じ ・フラットケーブルを出すスリットが側面にある ・電源LEDと動作LEDが見えない(NICの動作LEDで稼働状況を推測する) ・ケース装着のままmicroSDカードの交換が可能 ・Bluetoothキーボードやマウスなら使えるが、内蔵WiFiの利用は無理 ・ケース全面から均等に放熱される 今回の「Flirc Raspberry Pi用ケース 第2世代」は ・冷却できるのはCPUだけで、NICやメモリの冷却機能はない しかしCPU接触面が大きい ・裏面は放熱穴があるが、壁に引っ掛ける事は出来ない(床置き専用) ・デザイン性は抜群で、見栄えは断然こちらが上 ただしNICやメモリが冷やせないので性能的にはこちらが劣る ・GPIOフラットケーブルのスリットは底面にあるが、使いにくい ・pi 3 B+の電源LEDと動作LEDが直接確認できる(NICの動作LEDも確認できる) ・ケース装着のままmicroSDカードの交換が可能 ・Bluetooth機器やWiFi接続が利用できる。外部からSSH接続環境での使用なら、本体に繋げるのは電源ケーブル1本だけ ・ケース側面の金属部分が主に放熱し、天面や底面の黒いプラスチックはあまり熱を感じない ・ケース内部には「555-10001 REV 3」の記載があるので、リビジョン3と思われる このケース内に、ピンが出っ張らない小型のRTCモジュール(Rasbee オリジナルDS3231クロックモジュール)も干渉せずに組み込む事が可能だった。 騒々しい割に冷えない小径ファンが付いたケースは多々あるが、ファンレスでも冷却性能が期待できる設計がされたケースは意外に少ない。CPUの冷却に気を遣う人なら購入候補にしても良いと思う。商品説明が片言の日本語で、いかにも怪しい商品のようにも見えるが決してそんなことはない。「高速冷却アルミ製…」ケースが入手困難な現状で、第2の選択肢として充分検討に値する、良質な製品。 ## Features - The best looking Raspberry Pi case made out of beautiful aluminum - All New Manufacturing Process with improved metal quality and design - Made for the new Raspberry Pi 3 B+, works with Raspberry Pi 3, 2 and B+ Models - GPIO and all the main connectors are easily accessible through the bottom - Built in Heat Sink and comes with a thermal pad and 4 screws ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07349HT26 | | Antenna Location | Business | | Brand | Flirc | | Case Type | Raspberry Pi | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Computer | | Cooling Method | Air | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (1,502) | | Enclosure Material | Metal | | Fan Size | 80 Millimeters | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00090281102647 | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Item Weight | 113 g | | Light Color | Enhanced | | Manufacturer | Flirc | | Model Name | Flirc Raspberry Pi 3B Case | | Number of Fans | 2 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Heat Dispersing.

If using a Raspberry Pi 3 (Not the 3 B+) then what I did on mine was using a copper shim of 1mm and applied arctic silver thermal adhesive between the copper shim and the Flirc case, after fully dried then apply thermal paste between the now permanently glued in shim in the case and the Raspberry Pi 3 cpu. On both cases, it was the perfect solution to achieve the maximum overclock that the chip can without overheating and using a passive heatsink solution (no fans). **Q: Can you see the leds now for the pi 3?** A: Yes, but they are blocked if you are using any generation before. It was too difficult to support both, and most users are buying pi 3's now. **Q: There are 2 chips on the Pi that seem to need heat sinking. This case only sinks one? Is the 2nd chip not heat sinked?** A: Only the CPU, and it's arguable if the other chip needs a heat sink, really depends on your room temperature, never had a problem with any of mine. **Q: Whenever i touch the siding of this case when the device is powered on, i get shocked and my raspberry pi 3 resets. what can i do?** A: I have not this behaviour on my Flirc case... My you check the screws, which leads through the board. Have you also inserted the cooling pad? ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by D***L on 3 March 2018* PROs: (Basically everything...) 1.

Evtl. wurden sie angepasst nach der Kritik hier. Generell war alles in gutem Zustand und schön verpackt. Preis/Leistung: Naja, vielleicht einen ticken zu teuer dafür das es nur ein Case ist. Allerdings bin ich wirklich von der Kühlleistung überrascht. Mein Pi 3 mit Libreelec lag davor im Idle bei ca. 58-62°C, jetzt läuft er bei 40-42°C. Für ein Case ist das schon echt klasse. ## Frequently Bought Together - Flirc Raspberry Pi 3 Case - CanaKit 5V 2.5A Raspberry Pi 3 B+ Power Supply/Adapter (UL Listed) - New Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ Board (3B+) Raspberry PI 3B+ (1GB) (3B Plus) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/256258386-flirc-raspberry-pi-case-gen2-new-model](https://www.desertcart.at/products/256258386-flirc-raspberry-pi-case-gen2-new-model) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
