![]() ![]() This was purchased to make it more convenient to swap micro SD cards as I switch the Pi from one project to another.In the attached photos you’ll see a ribbon cable going to the micro SD card port on the Pi, here’s a link to this as well in case there’s some curiosity, but it’s not that relevant to the questions/help I am asking in this post.(UPS Hat Installation Guide) To expand further on that installation guide, it refers to another link specifically for the UPS Hat, which is here.There was a physical manual for the assembly of the pieces.The housing installation guide the Amazon posting (previous link) refers to is here:.The only thing the above kit didn't come with was the ribbon cable for the GPIO pins.Here's the new housing and UPS Hat I just physically installed the Pi 4B to.The original intention I had of the Pi 4B was just to give myself wireless connectivity to my Creality CR-10 3D Printer, but I’m not always printing and it’s a powerful device that I have decided to expand its purpose for even more fun projects.Here's the Raspberry Pi 4B kit I originally purchased on. ![]() Before getting into what I could use some help or guidance on, here are some links that I may refer to Links: Whatever I learn from these posts and trial & error experiences on this little project, I plan to create a more clear instructional post(s) on this (like a walkthrough). Depending on how well this works for the Pi 4B that I have, I may consider searching for a similar type of housing for my Pi Zero W (one with the same sort of features). So far, the only projects I’ve been dabbling in have been OctoPi/OctoPrint and RetroPie on this device and some Python Coding on my Pi Zero W (each have their own micro SD card of course). ![]() My goal is to use the Pi for other projects as well, whether it is for 3D Printing, RetroPie, Python Coding, or testing other ideas I wanted this particular device to be the main powerhouse that I can rely on before buying other Raspberry Pi's in the future (currently I only have this one and a Zero W version). So I've bought and installed what I consider an upgrade to my Raspberry Pi 4B (8GB RAM) to have a new housing and a UPS Hat (Uninterruptable Power Supply), the attached photos are the result of what it looks like. ![]()
