Raspberry Pi 2 B v1.2 Bulk Box of 150 Boards

The Raspberry Pi 2 Model B (V1.2) computer board is the 2nd generation of board from Raspberry Pi. It is the second version of the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B.

A Raspberry Pi is a compact computer board which offers endless opportunities. Simply plug in your TV, keyboard, mouse and power supply, and you are ready to go. There is a whole family of Raspberry Pi’s available to you, each providing various functionalities. There are also add-on boards available to enable other uses, such as camera and LCD display modules.
The great thing about Raspberry Pi is that it is suitable for almost all age groups. Whether it’s introducing programming to children, or used by engineers to make complex computer-controlled systems, anyone can use one.

The primary upgrade from V1.1 to V1.2 is the change of Broadcom SoC from the BCM2836 to the BCM2837 which contains a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor.
