What Makes It Stand Out
- Durable everyday protection designed for field use, travel, and outdoor operation
- Precision fit made specifically for the Heltec T096

- Customizable appearance through user-selectable front colors
- GPS compatible with battery-optimized interior supporting 3000 mAh and 4000 mAh packs
Step One: Choose Your Case Edition
Both editions use the same Slim Pro GPS shell. The difference comes down to whether an antenna and SMA cable are included.
| Edition | GPS Ready | Antenna Included | Best Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|
| Slim Pro GPS | ✔ | ✘ | Case only, for builders supplying their own SMA antenna |
| Slim Pro GPS + SMA + Antenna | ✔ | ✔ | Complete build with antenna and SMA cable included |
Step Two: Select Compatible Hardware
This case is designed around known-fit parts. Selecting the correct hardware ensures a clean build without trimming or modification.
