As soon as the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ was released, lots of customers got in touch asking about Raspberry Pi 5 cases for it, so we got to work on our in-house laser machine and came up with this minimal solution!

This ‘layer case’ is a simple combination of two Perspex layers and a set of carefully selected fixings to give your M.2 HAT+ setup a smart home to live in. We’ve used our signature glass-look Perspex which everyone here agrees is super-posh and looks awesome.

Updated! Following customer feedback, we now include a cut-out on the top panel for camera/display cables.

Assembly is easy and you don’t need any of the original HAT fixings if you’ve misplaced them. All you need is a cross-head (Phillips) screwdriver and our assembly guide.

Also compatible with the Raspberry Pi AI Kitand the Pineboards HatDrive! Top (without the header fitted) andTop Lite.

Raspberry Pi, Active Cooler, M.2 HAT and NVMe device not included.
