Can Raspberry Pi catch fire?

As with all electronic appliances there is a small chance of overheating components and thus the risk of fire.

Is Raspberry Pi successful?

The Raspberry Pi’s success defied expectations. Conceived as an affordable computer for getting kids to learn how to code, its creators thought they’d sell 1,000. They’ve now sold more than 30 million. In March 2020 alone, the company shipped a staggering 640,000 units – its second-highest sales month on record.

Why is my Raspberry Pi not working properly?

Which is the back of the Raspberry Pi fan?

For that, let’s name the fan sides first: the ‘back’ of the fan is the side where the air is sucked in. And the ‘front’ of the fan is the side where the air is blown out. Also, let’s assume that there is a heat sink attached to the IC.
