If you're using a Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+, chances are you've fitted a 2242 NVMe drive for super-fast, super-reliable storage. Not compatible with 2230 NVMe drives!
We know from years of using SSDs in our PCs that they don't enjoy getting too hot, so we wanted to find a decent heatsink for our M.2 HAT+ for a bit of 'thermal insurance' and to make it look rather fetching at the same time (because we've been fitting heatsinks to things for years just for the cool looks, and we're not ready to stop!).
This is a heatsink for NVMe 2242 drives, which fits the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ perfectly. The heatsink comes with a clever cradle system that fits under the SSD with the help of an adhesive strip, and then the main heatsink section is secured with screws, transferring heat via the included thermal pad.
Keep your Raspberry Pi 5 project running at optimal temperatures and make it look awesome at the same time!

How to fit
Fit the thicker pink thermal pad to the underside of the main heatsink body, and the thinner grey adhesive pad to the inside of the mounting cradle, like this:
Attach your 2242 NVMe device to the cradle (the adhesive strip will 'grab' your device) making sure to keep the little 'D' cut -out on the right clear for the thumb screw later on.
Then slot your NVMe device into the HAT as usual, like this (notice the 'D' on the right of the NVMe device):
Now use the thumb screw to secure your NVMe device to the HAT, like this:
Next, add the main heatsink body (again, 'D' cut-out to the right), making sure the side screw holes line up with the cradle - then add the four screws to secure everything:
To remove, do everything above in reverse!
These DIN rail mountable enclosures are designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 5.
This is a DIN rail mountable enclosure with a transparent removable top for easy access!
The kit comes complete with DIN rail hook for ultra-fast mounting.
The unit features 36mm internal clearance from the Raspberry Pi PCB to the top of the case, so there's plenty of room for GPIO mounted expansion boards.

This neat little 3DBi ADS-B 1090Mhz SMA Antenna with Magnetic Base is designed to receive ADS-B data from aircraft! It features an SMA Male connecter, so it's compatible with all ADS-B receivers including FlightAware Dongles, PiAware, Mode S Beast, Radarcape, Kinetic SBS1/SBS3, RTL Dongles, and more. It's designed to attach neatly to an internal metal surface and track planes as they drift on by.
Customers should be aware that ADS-B signals do not penetrate solid surfaces well, and the antenna should be placed high and next to a thin external surface e.g. a window. Don't expect this to work well through 12" of brickwork!

Why include a USB cable
USB 3.0 ports (the ones with blue on the inside) are known to cause significant noise and radio interference to any 2.4Ghz wireless device. This includes Zigbee and Thread.
If you do not use the extension cable, it may not work at all, and if it does, it could be flakey at best with intermittent problems (issues with pairing, device dropouts, unreachable devices, timeout errors etc). For this reason, an extension cable is included to ensure the best possible performance.
What is Thread?
From threadgroup.org...Thread is a wireless networking technology, built from the ground up to be based on the familiar Internet Protocol and the proven IEEE 802.15.4 radio technology.
It was designed to specifically accommodate the needs of IoT devices by addressing all of the following requirements: low power footprint, low latency, ability to work with any and multiple application layers, reliable and robust network with a self-healing mesh eliminating single point of failures (the more devices on the network, the stronger the network is) easy to set up and without the need for a dedicated hub or gateway.
In a similar fashion to Wi-Fi, Thread as a networking technology is not restricted to a particular application standard. We call that “application-agnostic”. For example, Thread works with Matter, HomeKit, Weave, DALI, KNX, BACnet, and OCF
What is Matter?
From threadgroup.org...Matter is a new home and building connectivity standard that is being developed by the Connectivity Standards Alliance and backed by well-known brands including Amazon, Apple, Google, and many other companies.
Its aim is to unify the best of the smart home technologies into a single application framework standard with IP as the backbone. This will make it easier for manufacturers to create products that will work with a variety of ecosystems and voice assistants, like Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant and others. A device might offer Matter compatibility alongside support for other protocols or ecosystems. End users will be able to look for the Matter certification logo on a product to ensure compatibility with their smart home ecosystem or ecosystems of choice.
Matter is fully based on the Internet Protocol and will initially work over both Wi-Fi (offering high-bandwidth applications like video security, mostly on mains-powered devices) and Thread (offering low-power or battery-operated devices in a self-healing mesh network, extending reach and reliability), while Bluetooth Low Energy can be used for setup and configuration of devices.
What is the current status of Multiprotocol support?
When Nabu Casa launched Home Assistant Connect ZBT-1, they announced their intent to release a firmware supporting multiprotocol, which allows the Silicon Labs chip to connect to both Zigbee and Thread networks with one radio. This experimental firmware has been available since December 2022. It integrates the Silicon Labs SDK, which adds this support for multiprotocol. During the further development and testing of the multiprotocol firmware, Nabu Casa have concluded that while Silicon Labs' multiprotocol works, it comes with technical limitations. These limitations mean users will not have the best experience compared to using dedicated Zigbee and Thread radios. That is why we do not recommend using this firmware, and it will remain an experimental feature of Home Assistant SkyConnect. If you currently have the multiprotocol firmware installed but don't actively use it to connect to Thread devices, we recommend that you disable multiprotocol.
Nothing changes for current users of the multiprotocol firmware who are happy with their experience. The experimental multiprotocol firmware will remain available, but we will not recommend it to new users. Instead, we will focus on making sure the dedicated Zigbee and Thread firmwares for Home Assistant Connect ZBT-1 deliver the best experience to users.

Take your first step to upgrading your smart home with Home Assistant Green, the easiest way to start using Home Assistant.
Home Assistant Green contains everything you need for Home Assistant in one box. Just plug the included power and network cables into the hub, and you’ll be up and running. Home Assistant Green will then automatically install the latest version of Home Assistant, the app (mobile or web) will guide you through the setup process, and it will detect your smart devices immediately.
This is the easiest way to start using Home Assistant, and it is perfect for you or your friends and family who want to take their first step in home automation.
On the inside...
On the inside, Home Assistant Green runs on a powerful 1.8 GHz quad-core CPU. Memory and storage are amply provided with 4GB of RAM and 32 GB of eMMC, more than enough to keep you running Home Assistant on the device for a long time.
Connecting to your existing smart home platforms lets you instantly use your devices that communicate over Zigbee, Matter, or other smart standards. When your smart home grows, you can use Home Assistant Connect ZBT-1 (not included) to add Zigbee and Thread radios (Thread support under development) or one of many third-party USB devices available to expand Home Assistant Green with other smart standards like Z-Wave or Bluetooth.
On the outside...
On the outside, Home Assistant Green has a stunning translucent enclosure design revealing the hub’s inner hardware. Unlike some other smart home devices, it looks great in your home decor.
The bottom of the case also functions as the hub’s heat sink and is made of a solid piece of black, anodized aluminium. And, of course, this case features the new Home Assistant logo on top as a nice subtle mosaic pattern.
