Does leaving a single board computer caseless can be a problem or not? - eviltoast

…other than the logical factors of dust and the damage it can cause to components.

t. Got a orange pi zero 3 running caseless for almost an year.

    It’s probably fine, but you can accidentally short it when moving it around by touching it or resting it up on something conductive, even if you’re careful dust might short it as well, but this is much rarer.

    As a general rule I would try to avoid it, but would not be my first concern.
