Hi,
Do you also have or can you recommend a casing for the StromPi V3 & StromPi V3 Battery & Raspberry 3? Reichelt.nl has a case for the StromPi V2 but they confirmed that the casing is not big enough for all 3 components (StromPi V3 & StromPi V3 Battery & Raspberry 3).
Thanks.

Hello Rene,
unfortunately we can not recommend you a case at this time.
Our case, which can fit the Raspberry Pi, StromPi V3 and its battery unit, is still in development.
Please be patient a little longer.

Hello Jarek,
if the new case is still under development I would make a suggestion:
A hole in front of the Raspberry mainboard LEDs would be helpful. Using the older case (i.e. for Strompi2) the LEDs nearly can't be seen.
Using Strompi3 I additionally want to use a pushbutton for shutdown and (re)boot via pin 5 + 6 and pishutdown script. There ist enough space on top of the Raspberry LAN and USB ports for a pushbutton. Maybe you could provide a pushbutton in the case? Otherwise I would need to drill a hole in the case myself.
Regards
Klaus

Rello Rene,
I'm sorry. I haven't found a suiting case yet. Currently I use the bottom part of the StromPi2 case and leave the top away. Works in my case because the Raspberry is in a secure environment. If I find the time I will make a case with a 3D printer if joy-it needs more time. There are good basic layouts for cases in thingiverse.com, for example https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2866045. The new Strompi3 case should have a height about 45 mm.
Regards
Klaus

Hello Klaus,
Big thanks for your Suggestions, we will consider to include them - the case is in its final stages of development, but it need a little bit more additional time.
Best Regards,
Jarek

Is there new information?

I also have great interest in a case where the StromPi3 and the battery fit.

Good morning Roland,
We expect the housing towards the end of the second quarter of 2019.
Best regards
