DeskPi Lite for Raspberry Pi 5

The DeskPi Lite for Raspberry Pi 5 is a custom ABS enclosure for Pi 5, offering M.2 NVMe support, rear dual full-size HDMI, front Micro SD access and excellent cooling with the included Armour Lite V5 active cooler!

The internal ‘daughter board’ re-routes ports to the rear of the case, giving you sensible cable management for a clean desk setup – including dual full-size HDMI! It supports M.2 modules and (NVMe) SSDs in 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280 sizes. It’s also compatible with the Hailo-8L module from the official Raspberry Pi AI kit (just the modules, not the full HAT).

The case includes an Armour Lite V5 active cooler with auto-throttling for effective cooling.  A power switch on the rear allows easy power management along with a power/reset switch at the front. A front LED showing the current power and disk status (red/green). There’s even access to the GPIO pins on the side of the case, concealed by a dust cover.

Important! Please be extra-careful removing the daughter board during assembly/disassembly. The power button needs to be carefully removed to avoid damage.

Raspberry Pi, power supply, SD and M.2 device not included.
