Dexilio Body Camera Magnetic Mount Case & Necklace

thingiverse

A magnetic mount and or case for the DEXILIO Mini Body Camera (0.98 x 2.83 x 0.39 in). The case has a slight angle downwards. The camera lens can be adjusted up. But I found when worn, the angle of the lens is naturally pointing more upwards. Requires two or four 3mm (height) x 10mm (radius) round rare earth magnets epoxy'd in place. You want a thin layer of epoxy to cover the top of the magnet to better secure it. The camera case can be fixed to anything metal or carried with a necklace adapter. I added some wings, made of wire, to the adapter to help stabilize the camera when worn. The adapter goes beneath your shirt and the case clips over the shirt. It has support for a light pipe on the top for the indicator light of the camera. It is bright indoors, but is not visible in the sun unfortunately. However, there is a pass through on the back of the case for the indicator light. I would suggest taking apart the camera and drilling larger holes for both the led and microphone. They put hot glue over the led hole which dims it's output quite a bit. Camera take down instructions: -Requires tiny electronics bits. 1) Remove the SD card. 2) Remove the two screws on the side of the case near the camera lens. 3) From the lens, pull apart the case gently. The IR leds and their wires will be attached. 4) Use something pointy to push the IR led PCB free from the case. 5) Heat up the area around the battery slightly and pry off the battery. Mind the wires. 6) Remove x3 screws from the PCB. 2 near the USB port. 1 near the top near the microphone. 7) Turn the lamp switch to on. There is a plastic lock above the switch. 8) Gently remove the PCB from all corners equally. The guts will come out as one units. You shouldn't have issues with the switch housings falling out.
