Connectors for IKEA Ledberg LED lamp, with flexible (using regular PET filament) connectors.

I made these because all the other connector models had their male connector contacts too rigid, so one pole would often press the board away from the other pole, causing unreliable contact.

• This connector has its male contacts mechanically separated, so they act like two independent springs.
• Profile of the male connector is modeled for a reliable contact
• Endings of the contacts in the female connector are easier to fit

• Use exacto-knife to separate the two male contact springsrn* Use tiny drill-bits for widening the holes, if necessaryrn* Use standard 1.4mm breadboard wiresrn* Remove the insulationrn* Apply soldering paste with the solderrn* Insert the wires and hook the endings into the appropriate holesrn* Apply a tiny drop of super-glue to secure the wires both at their ends that enter ending holes, and the point where the wire enters the connectorrnrnBe careful not to put the glue on the parts of the wires that make contact! If that happens, remove the glue with sand paper.
