ElectroCookie Raspberry Pi 4 Case, Aluminum Mini Tower Case with Cooling Fan and Color Changing Ambient Light (Black Neon)

I'm very impressed with how well made this is for the price. It's very sturdy and the fit and finish are way nicer than expected. I purchased this with the intent to hide away a Raspberry Pi that I access remotely and keep it protected from dust, kids, cats and what not. However, this thing is so cool that I just can't bear hiding it away. I had no interest in the neat colorful blinky lights either, until I plugged them in. Ok, it's really cool looking and now has it's own mini monitor too. My hide away remotely accessed Pi is now a mini desktop computer on my coffee table. Is it the direction I started heading? No, not at all. Is it the coolest thing on the coffee table. Yes, yes it is. Will it stay there? Possibly. I guess the take away here is, it's well made, way cooler than the pictures led me to believe and the fan is a little loud. Not excessive compared to other fans this size, but if it's the only little fan you have running in the room you will notice it. If you have ten other Raspberry Pi's and ten 3d printers in the room, you may not even notice it's running. If I need another case for a pi 4, I'll probably just buy another one of these.

Beautiful little case! I'm using it for my Pi that I use as a retro gaming console. It's small enough to not take up a ton of space but pretty enough to let it be seen. easy to put together and the material/build quality is amazing. Great value for the price.

Easy to assemble. Has a fan, which is nice. Has a header block/riser to allow connections to the header pins from the outside of the enclosure. Currently using it to display output from a Tablo.

This is a good case! Small form factor but sturdy enough to connect all your desired peripherals. Had a slight issue with the case fan being noisy but disassembled and reassembled and it’s back to being reasonably quiet. Airflow is good and although I beat up my Pi a bit, temperature has not been an issue. The colored lights are fun (haven’t taken the time to mess about with the color changing etc). Was quite easy to assemble provided you RTFM.

I think this is now my favorite raspberry pi case so far. I love the colors. It's easy to assemble. And the cooling system is great as it comes with a big heat sink.

It takes quite a bit more assembly than the standard RPi case, but it was all done in ten minutes. It looks great, and seems substantial. I got worried when the first review for this case (which was added after I made the purchase but before I received it) was two-stars, claiming that the fan doesn't work. I don't know what that means exactly; does the fan run but it doesn't cool the CPU? Does it not run at all? Anyway, my fan works perfectly well. The case is great; it's nice that it relocates the GPIO pins so that they're accessible without opening the case, as well as clearly labeled. There's lots of lights, but to be honest, if it was all up to me, I'd probably coordinate the lights so that there's only one color. This way, there's a red light on my pi board, there's a white light in the fan, and there's blue and red lights on the GPIO relcator card; not to mention all of these lights are seen through green plexi-glass. So it's a bit of a mess aesthetically in my humble opinion. I'd almost rather the sides be black or tinted dark for a more clean look. Nevertheless, it works gloriously, and the fan isn't obnoxiously loud.

While a bit on the expensive side for a Raspberry pi case and fan, the unit is well made and goes together relatively easily. My biggest challenge was tiny screws and ham hands. The screws for the 40 pin header adapter just barely catch the threads and could be perhaps an 1/8 inch longer. There is also a decal for the header that proved to be a bit of a challenge to keep straight and remove from the backing. Again not so much an issue with how it's made as it is because of the size of my hands and fingers and lack of fingernails. The case itself is larger than most cases measuring in at 3.75 inches square and 1 1/2 inches wide. As said in the headline, this thing is quiet - you can't hear the ball bearing fan turning at all. The LED's are a nice addition also.

It worked good. Swapped to the CM5 and boy now its a Frankenstein. Great CM4 case, wonderfully prototype aesthetic when used on a CM5 and pulled apart.
