I needed a light to go into my wardrobe cabinet I use for all my 3d printing stuff.
Didn't want to buy one and I had all the stuff so I made this to fill that need.
This is a touch activated 12V light, Its very bright and works great.

Printing/ Instructions
Supports: Yes

I printed it face down in PLA using PETG as a support interface. This allows for absolute perfect overhangs. But to be honest, the overhang part wont be visible anyway cause the lights will block it. :)
The mounting holes are 3mm. I used 2 M2 3x8 self tapping wood screws
- Print the thing ;)
- Fish the wires for the two lights into the holes
- Press the lights down into the SQUARE HOLE. Its a press fit so lightly sand the edges of the lights if needed.
- Fish the Power jack wires through the 12 mm hole but don't mount the jack
- add the nut for the jack over the wires but don't screw it in. You'll need some space first.
- de-solder the original touch sensor wires if desired. (I did)
- Solder the lights and the power jack to the touch sensor
- Press the sensor into the 20MM circular recess below the jack hole. It's also a press fit. Sand if needed.
- Carefully mount the jack and screw on the nut.
- Test
- Mount
- Marvel at what you made
Any questions ask away
I'd like to see your makes :)
