ENDER 3 / LED BAR / SLIM LED LIGHT

thingiverse

You'll need to pick up an aluminum strip bar at most hardware stores, located in the hardware parts department. The size of this aluminum strip is typically 3/4'' x 1/8'' or 20mm x 3mm. It's sold in various lengths, including 3ft, 4ft, 6ft, and 8ft. I've used a 5050 SMD LED strip powered by 12v. My aluminum bar is 220mm long and slides 10mm into the bracket on each side, requiring no fixation or screws. On the right side, I added a hole for feeding small wires if needed. The beauty of this setup lies in its extremely slim design, with the aluminum part serving as a heatsink. You can attach any light source - such as an LED strip, COB strip, or others - to illuminate your printer. Both bracket clips are made from 20x20 v-slot aluminum (as seen in my picture, which features an Ender 3 Pro).
