Review on Youyeetoo Developer Acrylic Transparent Enclosure by Troy Larson

Functional Simple Enclosure for Nano Dev Kit Boards

I have the 2GB Jetson Nano Dev Kit (https://amzn.to/367GNoe aff link) from NVIDIA Pre-ordered here on Revain a month ago and decided to get a finished kit rather than print it on your 3D printer. This case arrived very quickly and sat on the shelf for almost a month waiting for the Nano to ship. It seems to suit my needs quite well. There are no assembly instructions in the box or on the product page here at Revain, and the domain with the support email address doesn't appear to be tied to a website. So I had to figure out how to assemble this. The trick is that you use short gold standoffs to attach the board (with a screw on the bottom and a nut on top) and then use long gold standoffs with two screws to attach the covers. Insert the fan before attaching the top if you plan to use it. It took me just under ten minutes to go from the sealed box to the assembled unit. Viewing the images on the product page in full screen mode helped. The paper backing on the plastic comes off easier than some of the plastic cases I've bought in the past, except for the part above the engraving. You can probably soak or rub these areas with a sponge to remove the paper. I've just finished with some filled in Chinese characters at the bottom after scraping with a fingernail and ruler. Note that the plastic scratches easily, but that obviously doesn't affect the case's performance. If you want to install a fan on a heatsink, you need another case (like this one here: https://amzn.to/2GwOH1A at the link). There are other cases on Revain to mount the camera, as well as some metal sealed cases if you don't want to see the board in action (as is). But for general use you can't go wrong with it and I'm happy with my purchase.
