I purchased the Pironman 5 Case for a raspberry pi 5 build. It took me over a week to figure out the correct boot configuration. What took so long is trying to find out what number represents the NVMe boot first. It may help someone in the future. My fans, lights would stay on after shut down forcing me to unplug the power supply every time. The correct boot sequence is ....Boot order: Oxf641. Make sure to replace the first numerical value to 6. I hope I have saved someone some time dealing with this thing. It works great now. Upgraded with a Samsung 990 PRO with heatsink NVMe drive. Figuring out how to load game ROMs to it with Retropie will be a longer journey. 😁
Thank you for sharing your experience and information about the Pironman 5! A few tips below, that might be useful also. The fans remaining on were likely due to the POWER-OFF_ON_HALT setting at the default of 0 (instead of 1): docs.sunfounder.com/projects/pironman5/en/latest/set_up/set_up_rpi_os.html . From the page: "To prevent the OLED screen and RGB fans, powered by the Raspberry Pi GPIO, from remaining active post-shutdown, it’s essential to configure the Raspberry Pi for GPIO power deactivation." You don't have to do the following (unless you want it to always boot from NVMe), but in this video ua-cam.com/video/tF85w9GW3r0/v-deo.html (fast forwarded) you can adjust the boot order through raspi-config. I didn't do that in this video, mainly because of the convenience of easily swapping between microSD or NVMe boot. As long as the microSD card isn't inserted it will be able to boot from the NVMe SSD. Hope some of this reply might be helpful as well.

Thanks again for the additional information and your kind comments! btw - have you tried PINN Lite on the NVMe? If not, stay tuned for that one 🤓 It's likely my next video, it's pretty cool as it allows you to run multiple OSes from a single NVMe drive.

I installed Pi Desktop, Kali, Ubuntu (v23), LibreElec, Batocera and Recalbox on a single 1TB SSD. Still finding a few minor things I need to figure out before I can make a vid on it.

LOL, that might just be the case John! Thank you so much Sir, I greatly appreciate your kind comments. I'm currently working on a new video that is taking a bit longer than I thought it would, but should be very interesting. I love robotics, something I don't get to play around with near as much.

Oh Wow John, thank you so much for your very kind feedback! Your second paragraph made me LOL. Happy to hear you're enjoying the Pironman 5, I am too. You'll be seeing it again on this channel in a few weeks, it's definitely my favorite Pi 5 case.
Thank you so much for your feedback, Mike, hope you're doing well Sir! It was easy to setup and a fun project, just takes a little time. Once it's all put together, it's impressive what was packed into it. Thank you for watching!
At the time this video was released, the Pironman 5 was in-stock on Amazon. If it shows out of stock, there are more are on the way! There is a link in the video description to pick it up directly from Sunfounder, if needed. It should be back in stock on Amazon soon.
My man's are you using a Mario 64 back music mix? Sounds just like Mario 64 but like a remix. Either way ya I get my Pironman5 here within the next couple of days
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Pironman 5! I installed a 1TB NVMe SSD to it the other night along with PINN Lite and then installed: Pi Desktop, Ubuntu, Kali, Batocera and Recalbox all to the single M.2 NVMe SSD. I'll likely have some content on that soon as I do some additional testing. It's very convenient and PL no longer requires a boot microSD which is a big plus.
Thank you so much for this excellent video tutorial! Clear and well done! I have one quick question: I purchased the AI add-on board for my Pi5. Do you have any information on whether or not that board can be installed with the Pironman 5 case? I'm guessing the answer is no, but I haven't seen any confirmation either way from anybody thus far.

@@WagnersTechTalk Hi - Heard back from Sunfounder tech support and here is the response (there were several photos attached as well): "Hi, Thank you for your inquiry. The Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ is not compatible with assembly inside the Pironman5 case. This is because the AI accelerator is built into the HAT+, and assembling the entire Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ kit into the case is not feasible (see attached Image 1). The Raspberry Pi AI Kit combines the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ with the Hailo AI accelerator module. While the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ itself cannot be assembled into the case, the Hailo AI accelerator module can be connected to the Pironman5's NVMe PIP module and work seamlessly (see attached Images 2 and 3).

I was supposed to get this for the retro game build but I decided on making that look like an NES console. However, I'm still thinking of getting this to set it up for Home Assistant. I wonder how it will be running 24/7 with active cooling.
I have a question, i just purchased almost the identical set up as this(pironman 5, 250gb nvme, and a raspberry pi 5 with 64 gb micro sd) . I want to run the regular Pi OS on the micro SD and keep it as the default boot and have batocera running on the NVME as a retro gaming set up with the idea being I'll always have the micro SD unplugged when im playing games but just put it back in when I want to use the normal Pi OS for other things or projects. Do you think this would work with that boot order?? And if so how would I go about doing it, id love to see you show a similar set up with this case
Yes, should work in that order. If a microSD is inserted, it will boot from that. Otherwise, NVMe or USB. Should be good. If you need more info., this video you might also find helpful: ua-cam.com/video/tF85w9GW3r0/v-deo.html
I’d love to but one of these, but I’m not going to wait the two weeks it takes to get here from China. When the company has stocks in the US, I’ll buy one. I guess I’m spoiled by overnight delivery of almost everything. Waiting two weeks is just outside the realm of possibility for me, unless there’s no alternative . What I’m really looking for right now is a Raspberry Pi case with holes for SMA antenna connectors. Good video, though. This was a nice unboxing and review. Thanks!
I cannot get it to boot from the NVME, I did exactly everything you did to a tee, and gives me a "Fatal Firmware Error" I've even changed the boot sequence and also tried using the Imager to create a new setup directly onto the NVME.... ugh
Hi there. I am new to Raspberry pi family and ordered the pironman 5 case. Just wondering if I installed Ubuntu as booting OS, can I still configure the fan speed or Rgb thing? Or these setting only work in Pi os? Thank you 🙏🏻
Hope you enjoy your Pi 5, welcome! SunFounder has instructions here for several OSes, including Ubuntu: docs.sunfounder.com/projects/pironman5/en/latest/set_up/set_up_rpi_os.html
Since adding this case to my pi 5 it will not load any OS. the only thing it loads is PINN which says I can install OSs to SD or NVME and then after install it won't load them either. I just get error messages. It worked fine before adding the case, any ideas why anyone? Faulty unit maybe?
Sounds like it may be a faulty unit, please check with Sunfounder here for their recommendations: www.sunfounder.com/pages/contact-us . Their customer service is very good and they'll take care of you.
My pi boots from NVMe but says “low voltage power supply detected” then the cooler fan and other peripherals are turned off though I’m using a 5v power supply. I’ve tried everything what could possibly be the issue?
If you're not using the official Pi5 power supply, that's likely why. The one from CanaKit is the one I used and supports 27W: wagnerstechtalk.com/rpi5/#Official
I have a different case with NVME drive and the official 27 watt supply and see the same thing. I'm not overclocking or anything. Makes me wonder if the NVME drive is pulling too much current.
I don't see an option with a Pi5 pre-installed on their website: www.sunfounder.com/collections/raspberry-pi-5-cases/products/pironman-5-nvme-m-2-ssd-pcie-mini-pc-case-for-raspberry-pi-5
If it's aluminum threads, you can't crank down tight. I'd synch them up till they touch then give it another bit of a turn. You could always add nuts on the non-covered screws.
See the section "Compatible NVMe SSDs include" towards the middle here: www.sunfounder.com/products/pironman-5-nvme-m-2-ssd-pcie-mini-pc-case-for-raspberry-pi-5 . Those have been confirmed to work, there are some listed as incompatible.
