Ender 3 Max Neo LED Mount

thingiverse

LED mount for Ender 3 Max Neo, should work fine for any Neo/V2 Ender Printers. I wanted an LED mount that would light the print as the Z axis raised. I tried a couple different mounts and this one worked best for me. One of my designed the LEDs were closer to the nozzle, but caused a lot of reflection off the glass bed. So this design moves the LEDs about 180mm from the nozzle. It is recommended to print the LED "cover" in white PLA. Although the LEDs can get warm I have not had an issue with the PLA deforming. This design uses 9 LED's. I use a Athom WLED High Power Addressable LED Strip https://www.athom.tech/blank-1/wled-high-power-led-strip-controllerController. I run the wires for the LED's in a 10mm plastic wire tube. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RXZM32S. Cable tied alongside the X axis wires. There are 2 ways to print the arms. If you run the wires the way I do in a 10mm wire tube then you can print 1 "left arm" and 1 "right arm clip" If you choose not to use the clip then you can print 2 "left arm"'s Fusion 360 Archive and STEP files included for you to make any modifications.
