proposal for the future

[Rob F]

Last week I actually did some testing, I soldered a DS18B20 to port on board which is directly under the Pi 3. My ambient temp was 75f and inside case got to around 108f after 20 minutes or so.

I happened to have a Noctua 40mm x 40mm x 10mm, for the heck of it I simply placed inside the case and surprisingly it brought temp down to around 98f.

I plan to redesign the lid so it has a vent for fan input and then 5-10mm legs could be printed so the controller isn't sitting on the vent. The air will be pushing into the board and move from there. Maybe on the lid I can have a track which might guide the air under the Pi, the header is blocking most of the air getting there.
