Ender 6 LED Mod

thingiverse

This is a mount I designed for my Ender 6. It mounts on the inside of the upper aluminum frame just behind the bottom belt that runs your hotend just above the magnets that your doors use. Please NOTE when installing this make sure your printer is not in use. You will need to briefly lift the lower belt with your finger while you get mount with T-nuts inserted into the rail. You will need two 12" LED lights which I got from Brightledlights. They come in a silicone and have like a T shape mounting system which works great for what we are doing. You can actually use the T shape silicone LEDs directly into the rail, but I wanted to have 2 set... one facing toward bed and hot end and another one to light up interior lower area of the printer so when the bed lowers during prints, it will have plenty of lighting. I also purchased a touch sensor to power on and off the lights and also be able to adjust light brightness. The idea also behind having the mount is that it also blocks the lighting from hitting you in the face if your looking at your printer. LED lights: This is a mount I designed for my Ender 6.
