Pi Zero W Starter Kit
PIM262
A great bundle of things you need to get up and running
with the new Pi Zero W!
Including an SD card with operating system pre-loaded, a smart and colourful Pibow Zero W
case, and even one of our lovely Blinkt! multicolour LED strips to take your first steps with
coding in Python!
Kit includes
Pi Zero W (header requires soldering, or try a no‐solder hammer header)
Pibow case
8GB micro‐SD card with operating system pre‐loaded
Blinkt! multicolour LED strip
Male 2x20 pin header
50cm USB A to micro‐B cable
USB A (female) to micro B (male) adaptor
mini to full‐size HDMI adaptor
Sticker sheet (personalise your Pibow!)
Comes in a reusable kit box
The built-in wireless LAN and Bluetooth on the Pi Zero W frees up the micro-USB port, and
makes for a really tiny package when using the Zero W in embedded, headless Internet of Things
projects. Or why not use a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, and hide your Pi behind your monitor
or TV?
Our beautiful Pibow case will keep your Pi Zero W protected from bumps and bruises. It has a
clear top layer, and frosted red, purple, and blue layers. The clever design leaves the GPIO pins
free, letting you attach our add-on boards like the Blinkt! while your Pi is still safely ensconced
in its case. You can use the included sticker sheet to personalise your Pibow!
The included 8GB micro-SD card comes pre-loaded with the Raspbian operating system. Just
remove it from the larger SD card adaptor, pop it into the slot on your Pi Zero W before putting
it into the Pibow case, and you'll be up-and-running in next to no time
Our Blinkt! multicolour LED strip is the perfect way to take your first steps with coding in
Python. Our Getting Started with Blinkt! guide will teach you the basics, and there's a bunch of
code examples in the Blinkt! GitHub code repository to give you an idea of what's possible.
