Case for Step Down Module (B3603)

pinshape

I remixed a case for my B3603 step down/regulator, just like the one available on eBay at http://www.ebay.com/itm/252121912140 . I added vents to help dissipate heat because the module gets extremely hot when it's driven above 1.75 amps. I also modified the case to use banana plugs for the output and a barrel connector for input, as that's what I had on hand. Since all I had was a PCB barrel connector, I designed a small mountable PCB to fit it (the eagle file is attached). To improve ergonomics, I added a kickstand. The lid fits snugly in place due to friction, and the screws used are 3mm. Fine pitch screws work well for this purpose. Print Settings: Printer: MendelMax 1.5 Rafts: Doesn't matter. Supports: No. Resolution: Case - PLA .2 Lid ABS .15 Infill: 20% I printed the case in PLA, but I used ABS for the lid since it's right above a heat sink. For the buttons, I used 3mm filament and cut it to length, inserted it into the holes, then heated each end to "mushroom" them, allowing me to retain them.
