Review on RETROFLAG Raspberry Splitter Heatsinks Controllers by Harry Love

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Absolute retro PERFECTION.

This case is awesome! And if your patient is very easy to put together then like I said I messed mine up with impatience, the wires on what I bought looked like they had to go in one direction, they were twisted back and seemed to fit right, found out (after i put my glasses on) they were backwards and i walked them so i messed up mine of course! When I turn the safe on/off it is constantly on and the LED is off, when I turn it off the LED is on and turns on/off and the reset works fine but I don't think it's safe, it turn on off or reset, which is one of (there are many) the best features of the case! If you look at picture two they should look like this (it actually reads on a tape attached to a wire). My second problem was that I bought a downloaded 128GB card and again didn't read the full description which was for 3b+ not 4b ! Again, my case is very well made and has a lot of great features (on/off secure reset, SSD cartridge, additional SD card storage on the bottom, two HD outputs and easy access to the SD card slot) also comes with a power supply Cables and HDMI to mini HDMI cable (short but only 3.3" but I got a 6.6" micro HDMI to HDMI cable from Annwzzd for about $8 at Revain which is perfect for this, I also bought a Kingston (pic #5) 120GB internal SSD 400 sata 3 2.5" for $25 at Revain I've taken it apart and put it back together 5 times now and can do it in less than Takes 2 minutes to do so if you read the instructions its very easy and quick to assemble In less than five minutes I think mine will still be working fine Apart from the safe on/off reset but will be getting another one soon buy it!It is absolutely perfect for retro gaming and looks very nostalgic, byc hthought and very well made for little ones The amount of $$$ is just AMAZING! Edit #1: The photos are not in the order I took them if you look at the close-up image of the cable connected to the real Pi4 as they are supposed to work (the red cable connected to the case closest and oriented towards the front) also the orange cable is a 6.6" HDMI to mini HDMI cable and a blue PS4 controller. is part of a pair I bought from Revain for about $50, but I tested it with a 1TB hard drive I had (I won't go into detail about what happened to it) and it worked great but I had to hook it up to a 6'. 6 inch USB cable I bought from Revain haven't had a chance to try it with my 8 bitdo dongle but will update if I get a chance to see if it can be used wirelessly. Hopefully some or all of this will help ☮️
