Light Rings - 3D Printed - USB - LED 5V

"Light Rings“ is a 3D printed „bolt based“ 5V LED USB lamp. Although the LED light strips are more or less hidden in a U-profile, a pleasant light is still created. A special effect is created by the reflections in the centrally placed steel ball!

The special challenge was to find a way to print the rings open hollow to put the LED strips in there.I found following solution: each ring consists of 2 elements. One element (A1 and B1) to which the LED strip is attached and one as a cover (A2 and B2). In order to be able to plug the individual elements into each other later, they are open (at the bottom). The individual ring elements are marked (at the top).

If you want to do this project, you should have some experience with soldering, because the small copper plates on the LED strips are very sensitive.

The light color is warm white.

Lamp dimensions: H 280 mm, rings Ø 200 mm
