Half Life HEV Battery Insert

thingiverse

A few creative enhancements for the impressive Half Life HEV battery pack model by Maxdarkdog. To amplify the lighting effect, this insert adds space at the top for an additional 2nd LED tea light, along with several style options for the center. This gives the appearance of a central 'core' of the battery, either large or small in size. The tea lights used are the 3 LED remote-style ones available on Amazon, which have a diameter of no more than 31mm. This insert is designed to mount securely by sliding over the center piece of the original insert where the tea light goes. Printing this upright without supports ensures a smooth and efficient process. This design would look incredibly striking in glow-in-the-dark blue, although I opted for transparent PETG for now. When complete, I will update and post a make-up photo, as the rest of the shell is currently printing and more lights are on their way to enhance this project further.
