Pi-Hole_Zero_Case

thingiverse

Update 14 Apr 2020: I printed the base and it needs a bit of adjustment where the Pi goes, however it still works if you clip off the thin part of the pi holder in the base, but the holes don't line up. I've made the adjustment so it should be good. I don't currently have a plan for printing mine out again but please let me know how it goes. In my case, the pins with the wires fit but only by a little bit. may work with a hat, I'm thinking one of those that's for UPS functionality would be a good use case for this. I put Pi-Hole on a Pi Zero W and noticed that it was getting quite warm, even with the passive heat sync. I decided to build a case that would house an IRF520 mosfet for PWM modulation of an 80mm computer case fan so the Pi can control the fan based on what temp it has (code in progress). Tested the setup in a breadboard and it works well. I also decided that I wanted to power the Pi with the 12v coming from the fans power so I added in a MP1584EN buck converter. The case should hold all 3 with the fan being on the lid. Possible improvements down the road: - Wall mounting options - ON/Off switch - Possible way to include the UPS hat for the pi (not powering the fan). Print with support enforcer for the mosfet thumb clip and buck converter area
