If using paste, are there instructions included?

Hi friend, We test the thermal pads thickness is about 1.5mm, so it is better to use 1.5mm copper heatsink with thermal paste to replace the thermal pad. best regards, Geekworm Team

Does this case interfere with Bluetooth ?

I have used bluetooth devices with this case and raspberry pi 4 with no issue. That said the bluetooth devices I used were only a foot or two away and very low bandwidth like a keybord/mouse and it IS an aluminium case, so there will certainly be some shielding/attenuation effect. Incidentally, USB bluetooth dongles are dirt cheap and they could be installed in one of the ports OUTSIDE the case.

Does this case interfere with the on board wifi?

No, I use mine wirelessly and the range hasn't changed, the signal strength it still quite good.

What type of metal is the case made of?

Hi friend, The case is made of aluminum alloy. best regards, Geekworm Team
