Low Voltage Worklight by Preso

This two part print will hold and protect a standard MR16 low voltage LED downlight. Note: do not use it with a halogen bulb... It will melt. I used it as a worklight on my Colchester lathe. I purchased cheap LED clamp on type reading light from a well known hardware store but the COB chip in the head of the lamp failed after just a few hours use and since I had modified the flexible stem and switch I couldn't return it. I tried and failed to find a suitable replacement for the LED chip and decided that standard downlight bulbs were easier to replace in the future. The end of the housing has a 12mm diameter socket for fitting over the flexible gooseneck but you can modify the Inventor source file to suit what you have.
I have also included a two part print which allows for a rocker switch to be fitted directly to the stem of the flexible gooseneck. I found a rocker switch in my scrap box which was about the right size so the print was modelled specifically for that switch. I have included the original Inventor parts so you may be able to edit the parts to suit a switch that you might have.
