LED Light Bar Front & Back CR-10 / CR-10S (No Screws Needed) by Dooder_Snickel

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

I was searching for a simple no screws required light bar design for my CR-10S. I couldn't find one to my liking so I made one. Fits nice and snug on the top part of the frame. It has a little tunnel at one end for wires to fit through for connecting the two sides of LED's. At the other end, it has two little holes for putting wires through to make it look neater.
Directions:
Option 1:
All I did was run the wires down the back of one of the aluminum channels near the left z-Axis rod. Then I hooked it up to a 12v wall adapter and put a switch on it.
Option 2:
You could get power to the lights without using a 12v wall adapter is to tap into the extruders cooling fan I did this with my lights that move with my extruder (There will be a link to that model down below). All you have to do is cut the extruder cooling fan wires solder the LED light wires to it and solder back the extruder cooling fan wires to where they were connected before.
Parts:
-12v LED Strip (or any LED's that use 12v)
-Wire
-1x Switch (Optional)
