C296 Heatsink

Great Raspberry Pi Zero Case / Heat Sink. Does the job without additional heat sinks. Good value.

I used this on my Radxa Zero 3W. I had to grind off a bit of the aluminum on the USB C connector to fit as well as add a bit more padding as it is a bit too high for Radxa Zero 3W. Overall, it brings my Radxa Zero 3W down by 5 degree on idle.

I have my Pi attached to a WaveShare PoE hat, which is great because I can run my Pi with only a single cable being connected. However, the PoE hat produces a decent amount of heat. This heatsink became an essential add-on to ensure my Pi stays cool and functional. I opted to use the copper plate and thermal paste, and I've had a SUBSTANTIAL drop in temps (PiHole reports ~42c now instead of ~60+). Well worth it for the price and options that come with this kit.

Excellent passive cooling heatsink! Very good value. On average I saw a drop of 7-9 degrees Celsius. Which for passive cooling and the pi 2w at so low of power, makes the device very low profile while getting most out of the performance. I would say if they through in a packet of thermal paste for copper heatsink it would be an amazing value but a tube of thermal paste won’t set you back that much if you do want to use the copper heatsink like I did.

Very nice heat sink. It also does not cover the wifi antenna so now attenuation of the wifi signal. However, there is nothing for the bottom of the pie. It would be nice if it would have sandwiched it between plates, that way the bottom is protected.

Works well. Keeps the Pi nicely cooled. Fits well and doesn’t interfere with attaching a waveshare zero to Pi3b adapter. Very nice solution.

I ran a 30 second, 8 thread, stress test on each unit in the same case design. 17c cooler with the heatsink. The case has air openings but no fans. Overall 10C cooling would be expected. But this one out performs expectations.

This one will do it's job, but it's pretty bare bones. I chose this one over the other options because of the taller hestsink fins, but now that it's assembled, I really wish I'd gone for one with a bottom plate. The board clears the desk by 1-2mm on the included nuts, but it's definitely unprotected. It'll work for now, but I'll likely replace it sooner than later.

Um den thermischen Stress etwas zu redzieren, habe ich mich nach einem Kühlkörper für den Pi 2W umgeschaut. Nach dem Vergleich mehrerer Varianten hab ich mich für diesen Passiv-Kühlkörper entschieden. Vorteile: ---------- - Verteilt die Abwärm auf einen relativ großen, monolithischen Metallblock. - Einfach zu installieren (nur die 4 Schrauben). - Kühlblock hat die passenden Aussparungen, um nichts mechanisch zu blockieren. - Es wird zwar davon geschrieben, dass man evtl. noch einen 'GPIO-Extender' bräuchte, aber an die GPIO-Pins kommt auch so ran. Außerdem hätte ich etwas bedenken mit zu vielen Steckerverbinder-Übergängen für die GPIOs (Platine - Extender - Kabel - andere Platine) Mehr Risiko für Wackelkontakte, weil einer der Pins keinen richtigen Kontakt mehr hat. - Die Schraubenköpfe dienen zudem als kleine Abstandshalter für die Pi 2W Platine. Die Platine liegt jetzt nicht mehr direkt mit den unteren Kontakten auf der Tischplatte. Nachteile: ------------ - Vielleicht etwas zu viel verlangt für den Preis, aber wenn man schon die kleine Kupferplatte als Alternative zum Wärmeleitpad reinlegt, wäre etwas Wärmeleit- paste evtl. nicht schlecht gewesen. So bin ich (erst Mal) bei den Wärmeleitpads geblieben)

Fit perfectly would buy again

Raspberry pi için iyi bir soğutucu ihtiyacım vardı Soğutması gerçekten başarılı kesinlikle tavsiye ederim

This give the Pi Zero way more mass to thermally load. I've not managed to generate enough heat to stress this even a little bit. Definately worth it if you are concerned about heat

Funziona benissimo , anche troppo robusto per quel piccolo Raspberry ma lo metti e lo dimentichi , niente più ventoline e niente più manutenzione , anche per i modelli più grandi già provato e confermo la validità.
