Vilros Raspberry Pi 4 Compatible Passive Cooling Heavy Duty Aluminum Alloy Case

Fit like a glove, pulls the heat away

Used the aluminum case for a Pi-4B running PiHole. The case fit like a glove with aluminum monuments sized to land correctly on the heat generating components on the circuit board. A little thermal paste and the circuit board is running away happy as a clam with no need for a fan. Yes - I will use this case again for other Pi-4 projects.

Clean case with good heat dissapation

As always, Vilros order processing and delivery were prompt. I'd been using the aluminum cases with a fan, which keep the CPU temp in the mid 30's C. I decided to try these non-fan cases to see how much hotter they run. I had an application in a more dusty area, and wanted to avoid the fan. Installation is straightforward. In the horizontal position, CPU runs 1-3 degrees C warmer than when in the fan case (w/heatsinks on chips). When wall mounted vertically, the CPU temp is only 1 degree C higher than in a case with a fan, more than acceptable. These are good solid cases for use in less than pristine spaces. I use them for OpenVPN servers, Pi-Hole, and RasPBX applications.
