Ender Hotend LED Mount

thingiverse

Just a little mount for 2 5mm LED's that fits perfectly in the hotend of your Ender 3 or Ender 3 Pro. Designed so that it has very little visual footprint and uses the stock screws. I always wished there was a small, easy way to mount some lights to see what the nozzle is doing, and I noticed that ring light, but it takes up a lot of space, uses hardware and lots of filament, etc. So bam, I made my own solution. In my opinion, it looks even better than a big ring light setup, just because it's so discrete and unnoticeable to the non-observant eye. I recommend using 2 12V rated LED's connected in series for this to work, since the Ender 3 family uses a 24V mainboard. I spliced the wires going to the heatsink fan to power the LED's. https://www.amazon.com/LAOMAO-Bulbs-White-Pre-Wired-Parties/dp/B00H98OS2W/ These LED's are perfect to use in my opinion.
