BPI-R1 remixed cooling case

thingiverse

I modified the design by adding holes in Tinkercad.com - cooling on the side, an SD card for easy swap, a custom DC connector that goes to bat power, and moved WiFi holes down a bit. I must note that it's not possible to use the WiFi antenna and HDMI cable at the same time. To be honest, I covered the HDD screw hole since I saw no real usage - after all, you have to take the motherboard out of the case anyway to change the HDD. I also redesigned the top cover in 123D Design to fit a fan. Furthermore, I made a cap for the SD card, although I haven't used it yet. You can check out my Tinkercad project here: https://www.tinkercad.com/things/lfORiLZ9GgA I'm using this fan [aliexpress link] (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/USB-2-0-Connector-60x60x10mm-6010S-60mm-5V-Computer-CPU-Case-DC-Cooling-Fan/32598696220.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.KXeAqL). I hooked it up to 3.8 volts instead of 5, and it makes the same noise as a laptop fan at medium. The connector is refurbished from an old car vacuum cleaner. My CPU temperature stays at 37 degrees on idle using lamobo-r1 Linux distribution (with HDMI connected), which is quite impressive. The case feels pretty cool to the touch, and I'm very satisfied with it.
