3D printable cover that will attach onto a ‘dumb’ light switch, which is connected to a smart-light. It prevents the switch being flipped, cutting power to the light. It therefore prevents the accidental push of a finger which usually causes stress and frustration of having to re-connect the light to the internet.
I have designed it to fit the light switches in my home, it is highly probable that the screw holes will not fit your switch. It should fit if it's similar design of switch, e.g. a UK light switch, with a different placement of holes. To solve this issue, I have included a file with no holes present.
If in the case of an emergency you do need to turn the light off and on again you can use any small or long pokey thing to turn it on or off from the top and bottom, as seen in the pictures above! E.G. A Peg, A Plastic Pic, A Long Plastic Thing, A Coin, A Small Screwdriver... The list goes on!
IMPORTANT!!
Check the spacing of the screws on your intended light switch!! If you're lucky, it'll be the same as mine, 6cm, if you're not, bring the model into CAD software and add the hole to your spacing.
I apologise for the inconvenience, but there is no set standard for the spacing. In time I will create multiple files, with multiple spacings.
Print Settings:
Any standard print settings will do. The smaller the layer height, the more legible the text will be.
PRINT UPRIGHT! this will result in better text, and no overhanging areas. Also prevents the wall around the screw hole to be structurally sound.
Be careful with infill! The more the better. When tightening screws, not enough support around the hole could cause the print to break around the hole.
Recommended Print Settings:
Layer Height: 0.1 - 0.2mm
Infill: 20-60% Around 35% should suffice
Happy Printing,
Arren
