We celebrate the achievements of Isamu Akasaki, Hiroshi Amano and Shuji Nakamura, winners of The Nobel Prize in Physics 2014. Without their groundbreaking work on LEDs, our modern technology would not have flourished, giving us energy-efficient lighting, stunning HD screens and reliable mobile devices. To honor these pioneers, we designed the 3D-printable Vega Xmas Star to proudly showcase a standard LED light strip. Watch it come to life with this tutorial video! http://youtu.be/iPnVJo4_1uo Crafted from 5 identical modules held together by short segments of filament, this modular star allows for flexibility and versatility. Easy-to-use features include ventilation holes that promote airflow and a wall-mount attachment that adjusts cable rotation to achieve perfect alignment. Compatible with LED strips measuring 8 x 3 x 1000 mm (12 V, 0.5 A), the Vega Xmas Star is designed for indoor use. To ensure safety, refer to your LED light source manual for specific guidelines. Optimal print settings call for transparent PLA filament and two shells perimeters. Achieve rapid prints at 0.3 or 0.4 resolution with zero infill required, eliminating unnecessary material waste. Material requirements amount to approximately 70 grams of filament, allowing users to make full use of their resources. With our innovative design, the star's tips are effortlessly closed using bridging techniques, saving valuable printing time. Take it a step further by experimenting with colorful plastic filaments or creative LED lighting solutions. Make your own Vega Xmas Star and add personal flair to this impressive decorative piece!
