Raspberry PI 3 Box for Big Passive Cooling Heat Sink.
-
Just thought I would share my “costume” RPi3 box with you. It’s made so you can fit a 28x28x15mm heat sink on it, so you would not need a fan. Also it’s made to be fasten on the long side and so it’s easily removable. You can see a variant of in om my own MagicMirror.
Here you can find the actual Box.
Enjoy.
If you cant find it, make it and share it!
Modules: MMM-homeassistant-sensors, MMM-Modulebar, MMM-Profilepicture, MMM-Videoplayer -

Excellent design and implementation. Very impressive!
I’d be interested in knowing the temperature difference, before and after the use of your custom box with the big heat sink.

@Mykle1 I’m not sure of the temp before the heat sink. I never really payed any attention to it. I had already decided to use a big passive heat sink after reading trough some threads here. So I never tried running the mirror without a heat sink when it was built.
But now when it’s all complete, It’s hovering around 50-55 degrees celsius when all is up and running.
Even if I switch profiles, show, hide modules and “use” the mirror so to speak.
