The usual status LEDs are inside the case, but are not visible during operation, which seems to be ok.
The board doesn’t line up with any of the mounting holes, even REV:B which I added mounting holes do not line up, I am pretty sure I can modify the board to fit these mounting holes though. Over all this case it larger then I would like, hopefully with some other modifications I can get the size down a bit. Putting it into this case did stabilize the device quite a bit, I had a good run which I will talk about in another post where it did not reset all day and churned out some very nice data.
