Bulk Protection for Serious Development

Testing or swapping CM4/CM5 modules regularly? This 10-pack gives you ~800 protected insertions for Compute Modules and saves hundreds of dollars in replacement costs.

Why Buy in Bulk?

  • 800+ insertions protected - Don’t waste CMs, rotate through adapters as they wear out
  • Cost-effective - Protect one $35-150 CM through its entire project lifecycle
  • Always have a spare - No downtime waiting for replacements
  • Perfect for production testing - Essential if you're testing batches of boards

The Problem We Solved

At PiKVM, we test thousands of boards during manufacturing. CM4/CM5 connectors fail after ~80 insertions. This means destroying one expensive Compute Module per 80 devices tested. Beer Ware solved this problem for us - and can solve it for you too.

Smart Design for Daily Use

Each adapter includes:

  • Finger cutouts for easy CM removal without tools
  • Pull tabs for removing the adapter and module together
  • Ergonomic design that prevents pinched fingers

Bonus: Bottle Opener

When an adapter reaches end-of-life, it becomes a conversation-starting keychain bottle opener. Your team will thank you.
