Never hack without a helmet, now you can protect your cute little Adafruit Metro Mini with this chique new Zebra Byte Case!
This laser-cut DIY plastic enclosure is designed to perfectly frame your tiny microcontroller and firmly lock it in with high quality stainless steel screws at each corner. While this case leaves absolutely no wiggle room, there are still a few cleverly placed air vents allowing cool air to flow over your Metro Mini’s surface and exit through the top of the case.
The Zebra Byte Case is strategically designed with an extended reset/bootloader button opening plus easy access to all the necessary power ports on your board. This product also allows pin headers on either side of your Metro Mini and even has extra space for the battery header, incase you are connecting a battery directly to the board.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
