Deformable LED Light Diffuser

thingiverse

<p>The Deformable LED Lights provided by AliExpress provide great lighting for a workshop or garage, but the lights themselves can be painful to look at directly. I designed a diffuser to clamp on to the aluminum LED frame. The front face of the diffuser is offset about 1cm from the LEDs.</p> <p>I'm using the 100W variant of the LED light with the diffuser, and the diffuser does not get over 30 degrees C (warm to the touch.)</p> <p>I printed these in white PETG because I didn't know how hot the plastic would get (turned out to be a non-issue). I have not attempted to print in PLA, but there is only a little deflection when you snap it on, PLA would likely be fine. Print with 4 vertical shells, the front face is only 2 layers (.45mm) thick, infill doesn't really matter due to very little infill volume. I used a 0.2mm first layer and 0.25mm for subsequent layers.</p> <p>Using a colored or translucent filament would likely give some cool effects!</p> <p>Fusion 360 file is included if you want to tinker.</p> <a href="https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000152963660.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dVKDtaQ"> Link to Aliexpress LED Deformable Lights </a>
