Deltaco PB-C1002 Powerbank enclosure

Backstory

I recently had a problem with my Deltaco PB-C1002 powerbank - after about two years of usage, the ports pressed into the powerbank due to broken off stud screw plastic that was holding the PCB onto the base, so it has become unusable - could not connect anything to the ports as they were loose inside the original enclosure.

Because this is such a niche problem to have, I was unable to find any ready-made models for it, so decided to try and make one myself. The powerbank is quite expensive where I live, about 50-80 euros for a new one, so it was really economically viable to just design and print an enclosure for it.

This is my first ever model. It is not perfect, but it works - all screws align perfectly, ports have a very slight offset that does not impact the usage at all - usb connectors slide in easily, without any problems.

I do not expect many people to have such a problem, but if there's at least a single person in need of this, I am happy to share the model, help someone save some money, and also help protect the environment at least a tiny bit longer by giving a new life to the device.

Printing

I printed mine using PLA, default settings (0,4mm nozzle, 0,2mm layer) in CrealityPrint. Used tree supports for all overhangs (port holes and button hole).

Embossed some text using CrealityPrint software.

You can download the whole assembly and then use "Split to objects" and arrange them on your base plate; or you can download each part separately.

Assembly

For the screen, cut a clear coke bottle up and glued a small square of plastic with epoxy from the underside of the lid.

To attach the lid on the base, used brass inserts and screws. Specs:

• Brass inserts: M2.5/5

• Screws: M2.5/8 (8mm length)

The battery cell pack was glued to the bottom of the base using some strong double-sided tape.

Modifications

If you wish to modify the model, FreeCad project file is also attached. You can check and adjust the exact dimensions there.

Happy printing!
