It seems Conrad sells those cases also, altough they seem thicker (30 or 51mm).
The PDF also shows the inner measurements. Can you verify they are the same??
Conrad's numbers for the black/grey/30mm/51mm are: - 520993-8A - 520985-8A - 521027-8A - 521035-8A
Yep - I'm almost certain they are the same. There are two sizes, I'm going to use the 30 mm thick ones in combination with the upcoming Carrier Board.
Nice! I thought they have 80/85mm wide/long versiona also which might be a nice fit for the JeeNode itself.
Any idea about the eta on the carrier boards??
Just got them in, minutes ago. Still need to test them. IOW: soon!
Hi,
The Conrad case is slightly different from the case i ordered at Dick Best earlier. The Conrad case lacks the inner 'ribs'; and opening is a bit harder (you'll need a screwdriver with this one). In combination with the upcoming Carrier Board this case would be a bad choice!
Thanks, Robert! Could you post or email a picture? It would help to be able to show the difference!
> in combination with the upcoming Carrier Board this case would be a bad choice
It is - the Carrier Board is out now, no longer "upcoming" - the future is now!!! :)
Ok, Robert sent me the photos - I've added them to the Café to be able to include them here (yeah, whatever) :
IOW - don't get Conrad boxes 520993 / 520985 / 521027 / 521035 if you intend to use them with the Carrier Board!
Weird, as there should be inner 'ribs' according to the spec document:
As conrad confirmed to me that the box should have ribs on the inside, I decided to add the box to an existing order from Conrad and take my chances...
Well, I received the box today and I can confirm that the specification document is indeed wrong and that the box does not have the ribs!
Pitty...
