// gear i actually run
The Flipper accessories I keep around: the Wi-Fi dev board, sub-GHz antennas, blank NFC/RFID cards to practice on, and cases that survive a bag. The kit behind the RFID, NFC and firmware videos.

The ESP32-S2 board that snaps onto the GPIO and makes flashing firmware over USB-C far less fiddly, and opens up the Wi-Fi tooling. The first add-on I'd buy if you plan to run custom firmware.
An external sub-GHz antenna for the 300-928MHz bands. Real-world range gains are modest and depend heavily on what you're testing, but it helps on weak signals. Authorized testing only.
A GPIO-attached CC1101 antenna board, same idea as the hidden version but external. Pick one antenna, not both. Same caveat: gains are situational.
A zip EVA shell for tossing the Flipper plus a few cards in a bag. This is the protect-it-in-transit option rather than a daily skin.
A thin transparent shell you leave on while using the device. Adds scuff protection without blocking the GPIO or ports.
An over-built printed hard box with fitted cutouts for the Flipper and add-ons. Overkill for a desk, the right call if it lives in a field bag.
A grippy silicone skin that stays on in use and takes the drops a bag delivers. The cheapest insurance on this list.
Blank NTAG213 stickers for writing and testing NFC tasks on something disposable instead of a real tag. Low memory, fine for URLs and simple records.
The same NTAG213 blanks in a bigger count. Buy the larger pack if you're working through a lot of write tests; otherwise the 30-pack is plenty.
Writable 125kHz T5577 fobs — what you practice low-frequency cloning onto instead of touching a real credential. Get these for the LF side; the NFC stickers cover the HF side.
These are add-ons, not the device itself. Pair the dev board with blank cards on both frequencies and you can actually work through RFID, NFC and firmware instead of just watching. Only use the Flipper on systems you own or are authorized to test.
