LED Light Bar

thingiverse

I designed this LED light bar holder to illuminate parts on my Creality Ender 2 3D Printer, but it should work on many different applications / printers where LED strips are used. These 15mm x 170mm LED strips are usually marketed as: "Daytime Running Light Lamp Super Bright 12V LED Strips COB Car Led Fog Light" and can be found on online for around $12 USD for three pairs. I chose this LED because it has a very uniform illumination pattern across its entire width. This helps eliminate multiple shadows. The mount has an integrated wire management channel that allows for the wire to exit either side of the bar or out the back in the middle of the bar. The mounting tabs are designed to slide or snap on to a 8mm diameter shaft. The corresponding mounting brackets that snap into 2020 aluminum extrusion can be found at: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4851085
