Housing / Case Orange Pi Zero2

thingiverse

As I could not find a proper case for the OrangePi Zero2 that fits my needs / wishes I took my measures and created the attached case. It does not need any screws beside the ones you want for the fan (if you choose to cool the beast). The nuts for the screws should be even with the bottom of the top cover as there is not a lot of space between the Ethernet mount and the cover. The top cover clips in nice and solid and even with a fan attached does not move a bit for me. Same for the PCB - it fits without pressure and no need for screws. If you feel more comfortable, the design has holes for some tiny 2.5mm screws to hold the PCB down. On the back you find two holes which can be used for the antenna if you wish as well as access openings to the SD card and LEDs. As I know that some might have a 40mm fan laying around I have attached 3 designs for the top: 30mm fan 40mm fan Passive (no fan) Also I have added two types of bottom cases. One with bigger openings (3mm instead of 2) in case your orangepi zero2 runs hot. As a reference, my zero2 runs at 43 degrees C with the less cool bottom case and a 30mm fan on 3.3V (load 20 - 50%). The weakest part of the bottom case is in between the Ethernet port and the USB-C power connector so be gentle and don´t bend it too much. Enjoy! Note: Print quality for this test was crappy; One screw of the fan is missing not because it wouldn´t fit but because it got lost. ;)
