Description

Hi everyone!

The stock light with our printers is well known to be poor on brightness. After checking several solutions I was not pleased with adding more external leds or having to raise the top lid. I found this kit coming with the compatible pins for X1C on AliExpress: https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005005939160629.html

After glue them on the case I was not happy with the position and the projected shadows from the rails.
So I ended up with this simple design to put them inside the enclosure on a 45 degrees position being able to press fit them where I want to in order to get the best visibility. You need to install the led strips inside the clips by pulling the wires(its a tight fit) and place them on the metal frame of the printer.

I bypassed the connection of the stock light and I have all them connected to the printer itself. No issue so far on calibration and now the prints are way more visible.

Printed on ABS to handle high temps on the chamber.

 

Note: Will appreciate if anyone prints it for a P1P or P1S to check if fits!

Hi, this is something I was looking for. How did you made it with the cables? I see your stock light is still working. Means you soldered the new lights to the Stock light wires? Thanks, Michal

Actually on the new lights I exposed the wires, unpin the stock ones and connect them to the AliExpress wires. No soldering, just splice them.

You can! Just change the filament of the objects on Bambu Studio and ensure your print bed is ready for it (any high temp plate).
