Parts

• Yellow Led Pods Lights 3" 40W LED spot cube, 12V/24V (pack of 2 — I used 1)

• 22mm latching push button switch, 5A, waterproof metal (flat head)

• 5A inline fuse 

• Milwaukee M12 (2.5Ah–5.0Ah)

• 7× M3 x 10mm screws

• 7× M3 thread inserts (4.0 x 6.7mm)

• 2× crimp connectors with contact tabs for the battery +/– (inserted into the M12 adapter cutouts)

Wiring

• Battery + → 5A fuse → switch → light +

• Battery – → light –

Assembly Notes

• The M12 insert model I used already had two cutouts for contacts. I crimped two connectors with flat contacts leads and inserted them into those cutouts for the M12 battery +/– terminals.

• Watertight sealing is optional. My housing can be sealed, but I didn’t need waterproofing for my usage.
