Triple Mosfet Button Case for LED Lights - 2020 Compatible by NurseJosh

Last crawled date: 4 years, 4 months ago

I was inspired by Thomas Salander's video on adding programmable RGB LEDs to your 3D printer and designed this 2020 mountable case to house 3 mosfet buttons for driving my 5050 LED Strips.
I have an Anycubic Kossel Linear Plus so I didn't have enough PWM pins to tie into my mainboard for the signals so I used my Raspberry Pi with OctoPrint and the LED Strip Control plugin to control my lights via G-code and it turned out great! Links to the parts I used are below as well as links to the videos and resources that were mentioned.
