There is never a shortage of ideas where Raspberry Pi computers are involved. Encasing the bare bones apparatus has become somewhat of a hobby for some people, especially with the many ways of protecting its components from the elements.

Though the PiBow has always been regarded as the unofficial official Pi case, it has been officially dethroned by the actual official Raspberry Pi Case, created and released by the Raspberry Pi Foundation itself. This case typically sells at $9 (less than £6) in most stores, which is less than half the price of a PiBow running at $20 (about £13) a piece. Unfortunately the official case only works with models, A+ and B+.

But don’t worry—there are still many other unofficial cases you can use to nest and house your Raspberry Pi.

Texet's Raspberry Pi B+ Case is a great example, running at only £4.99. This affordable and practical case is suitable for the Raspberry Pi B+ and Pi 2 Model B. It is one of the low cost options in the market today, making it quite popular.

When it comes to design, the Texet's Raspberry Pi B+ case keeps everything efficient and purposeful. It features an easy snap-fit design and a clear finish. Like its more expensive counterparts, it has cut outs for easy access to important hardware features like the LAN, USB, and MSD ports. A "spacer" can also be bought as an optional extra. This case has a sturdy construction to ensure that your Pi is protected at all times.

Make sure that you protect your Raspberry Pi from the elements by buying an enclosure for it. Whatever type of case you prefer—be it sleek or colorful, there surely is a Raspberry Pi case for you. In fact, one of the first things you should do when you buy your Pi is to find a nice and functional case for it. A good Raspberry Pi case will keep it protected, make sure it’s safe, add a little style, and fits well into your build project at the same time.

Thanks to online shopping, it is not hard to find accessories for your Raspberry Pi computer if you know where to look. Great supply stores never run out of fun and functional accessories and components to help you make the most out of your Raspberry Pi.
