Adapter to convert RBLs from Battery operated to RGB pixels.
My RBLs were purchased from Home Depot after Christmas 2022, watch out for sales!
Build Steps
1. Once removing the white part of the bulb, the inside looks like this. The light holder can be removed with three screws. Be sure to save the screws as we'll use them for the printed adapter.
2. Then two more screws to remove the demo button
4. Left with a hole, use a stepped drill bit to increase the hole size just large enough for a pixel and two wires. I used the largest bit in this set from Harbor Freight to increase the hole to ~5/8"
5. Prepare your pixels. I ordered custom made strands from an overseas vendor with 9 pixels and x-connect connectors. Similar to this product from Wired Watts.
6. Insert the pixels from the outside of the base. This allows us to make a smaller hole. You could make a larger hole and push the connectors from the inside out. The smaller hole will be easier to waterproof.
8. Insert the pixels into the 3D printed adapter. I used some zip ties to strain relief the connector wires to multiple pixels. This makes it less likely that a tug on the connector wires will remove a pixel from the adapter.
NB. Also added a set of zipties to further strain relief the cables. This helps make sure any tugs on the wires don't remove pixels from the adapter.
9. All pixels installed, use the screws we saved from earlier to mount the adapter in the base.
10. Test!
