3D model description

UPDATE: Added a cover if you wish to use LEDs to show power on, and button compression. Will need to get 2 x 400ohm+ resisters and additional wires to wire them in place.

Wanted to create a 9v igniter for model rockets. Example seen above is missing the push button igniter, but is ready and workable.

Materials Needed:

Mini Boat Rocker Switch - master switch to turn power on and off so ignition button won't be turned on accidently. Fits below surface so that its less likely to be pressed by accident.

Momentary Button Switch - will fit any .5" momentary switch that is under 18.5" for the underside area gap.

9 volt Connector - fits through hole between battery compartment and wiring/switch compartment

Small Gauge Wires and alligator clips (for connecting to igniter wires on rocket) May need to use a drill bit to widen the hole for your wires that run out to the rocket to accommodate their size.

Solder


Print Orientation

Controller Case - Printed battery compartment facing down, with tree supports everywhere

Battery Lid - Printed sitting with top side facing up (that has the grips/grills) with support underneath

Case Top - Printed sitting flat on it's top with clips sticking up

***sized in slicer at 2540%
