Raspberry Pi

Collection: Raspberry Pi

Ah, the Raspberry Pi. The tiny, credit-card-sized computer that launched a million projects and a billion "out of stock" notifications. It's the undisputed champion of the single-board world, the go-to brain for everything from retro arcade cabinets to ridiculously over-engineered smart home hubs.

You're looking at a board that represents pure potential. And, for the past few years, pure unobtanium. If you see one in stock, just buy it. Don't think. Don't hesitate. Future You will thank you.

It's a Real Computer. No, Really.

Let's be clear: this isn't a toy. It's a full-fledged ARM-based computer. It runs a proper Linux operating system. It has USB, Ethernet (usually), and Wi-Fi. You can write code on it, host a website on it, run a home server on it, or teach it to recognize your cat.

It's the perfect platform for learning to code, for prototyping that million-dollar idea, or for finally building that bartender robot you've been dreaming of since you were ten. It’s also perfect for sitting in a drawer while you wait for inspiration to strike. We don’t judge.

The Board is Just the Beginning

Let's have a moment of honesty. Buying the Pi is the easy part. The real fun begins with the accessories. The official term is "Hardware Attached on Top," or HATs. The unofficial term is "the reason your £50 project just became a £150 project."

You'll need a case to protect it from stray metallic objects on your workbench. You'll need a specific power supply because you can't just use any old phone charger. Then come the cameras, the high-res screens, the motor controllers... It's a wonderful, expensive rabbit hole. We're happy to be your guides.

Finding Your Pi

Raspberry Pi (The Full-Sized Ones): The flagship. From the Pi 4 to the shiny new Pi 5, these are the most powerful and versatile boards for serious projects.

Pi Zero: The impossibly small one. Perfect for embedding into projects where every millimeter and gram counts.

Pico & Microcontrollers: The baby Pi. It's not a Linux computer; it's a microcontroller for real-time tasks, like the brains of a robot or a custom keyboard.

Choose your weapon. Assuming, of course, that it's actually available. No promises.
