Hi, Aurimas:
If needed, we can help you sale your Aluminum Case on our distributors like Gearbest, if you agree that, you can PM me for further details.

PS: I also thought that the price comes too much for VIMs users.

Thanks!

Agree Balbes150’s thoughts:

  • Would be better compatible for both VIM1 and VIM2
  • Buttons is a must for both developers and normal users.

Besides:

  • Would be better to mount our official cooling fan(high speed and slim)

  • Is it possible to remove the Gap between HDMI and LAN ports & HDMI and TF Card Slot.

  • Is it possible to reduce the thickness of the ports side? Not sure whether all cables will fit your case

  • And one more: does the TF card is easy to insert in/out?

Hello! Do you plan to make a new version of the case suitable for VIM2 with DVB Extension board? I would buy one.

It is desirable to add to the housing opening to access the M-register.

@Gouwa, you can raise the issue of mandatory add a microswitch on the M-register ? It is very difficult to close the contacts and not to damage surrounding components. I know that many users have this problem. Add the microswitch at least in the maximum version. It’s not will significantly increase the price but will significantly simplify the handling of the M-register. The maximum version VIM2 bought primarily for serious work on the development of programs, where you often have to debug your code (and use M-register), it is necessary to facilitate users using M-register.

  • There are holes for the buttons you can see in picture above
  • Case was made to be silent so no fan
  • There are no way to remove the gap
  • The ports are almost flush with the case

Regarding TF card:

I can modify the design if you going to buy bulk

P.S. The price is pretty decent for the hand machined case.

@Frank.DTV might also interest for this.

I was interested in the idea of passive cooling. You can make a set consisting of copies of the top cap of a standard housing, but to make it of metal. And of suitable size “cube” for heat transfer from the processor to the top (metal) cover ? Need a simple flat rectangular plate. I want to combine a standard plastic case and replace it with only one top cover. I think you can make the most simple rectangular plate with 4 holes for housing bolts , a hole for 40-pin connector, one common hole for the fan connectors and battery the RTC. You can also add two holes for mounting connectors WiFi antenna (now used in your new body). Antenna will be located on the top cover vertically.

Very nice case. I like it very much.
