Multi color vase by mat_neu27

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

If you like to play with colors and light moods, this vase may be the right for you.
The vase comes in two parts where had to glued together. So it's easy to print in different colors or as single vase only.
The foot has space for a remote controlled battery supplied spot. If you decide to get rid of battery power, you can convert with a little hardware hack the lamp to wire supply by a 4,5 V socket supply. The foot is prepared with a cable slot for this case.
The lamps are in fact waterproof, but i decided to place it outside for easier handling. Who likes to fish them out of bad flower pot water? Also they will loose their water proof properties after the conversation to a cable supply.
Anyway, if the vase is transparent it will be no problem to control it by the shipped IR controller without lifting of the vase. In my case i was able to control some random functions of my HDD-Reciver too.
The project and the illumination with this handy lamps where inspired by nice user drato : http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1691927
