Mini Black HAT Hack3r
by Pimoroni


Need to detach or debug your HAT? Then the Mini Black HAT Hack3r is for you!
A nifty little tool that lets you access all of the GPIO pins while also running a HAT. Ideal for debugging your HAT projects or combining a HAT with other circuits.
Features
- HAT and pHAT landing areas with PCB standoffs
- Includes 40 pin GPIO ribbon cable
- All GPIO pins labelled with function, BCM pin number, physical pin number
- Rubber non-slip feet
- 4 mounting holes
- Comes assembled or in kit form
We made this for ourselves when debugging new HAT designs but found it so gosh-darn useful that we thought you might like it too!
Kits include
- Black HAT Hack3r PCB
- 40-way black GPIO ribbon cable
- 3 x 40-way pin header (pre-installed on the assembled version)
- 4 x PCB standoff for HAT mounting
- 4 x rubber non-slip feet

Works a treat. I'm now using old lithium batteries I scavenged from a vacuum cleaner to power my raspberry pi 4, save in the knowledge that the shim will keep my pi safe!

A great lightweight solution to put my Raspberry PI zero into a rocket and get some great photos from above.

It is a practically necessary piece of kit all things considered. I strongly recomment using it coupled with the stacking headers, so that you can still take advantage of the pins which aren't used by the shim

Nice pHat used with Raspberry Pi Zero W and a mini LiPo Battery. A very compact solution.

I'd and try it yet but it seems to be good

Great product as always! Wanted to add a lightweight power source to my raspberry pi zero robot and using this circuit with a LiPo battery was just what I was looking for.

Compact and simple, ideal for adding to a Pi Zero project, and simple to install and use.

What better way to power your Gameboy Zero build. Or any truly tiny Zero build. Perfect for on the go.

This is a great piece of kit - you can either solder the board directly to the Pi's GPIO (like I did) or attach female headers that you can pop onto the Pi's headers if you want to remove it later on.
I've also soldered a switch to the board, so that I can turn it on and off... well, at a flick of a switch!
This makes a battery powered, yet compact, Raspberry Pi!
