NodeMCU V3 Case (screwless)

thingiverse

Enclosure for a NodeMCU v3 board with space for a connector to a strip of addressable LEDs. Powered via an external 5V ~~USB~~ *power* supply. Suitable for powering LED strips ~~up to about 1A.~~*, amperage depends on your power supply.* The NodeMCU v3 board is fixed into a larger compartment with four ~~self-tapping screws~~ *poles.* ~~The USB connector is exposed through a slot~~ *There is a special hole* for connecting an external 5V power supply. The wires of a standard 3-pin connector assembly (as often supplied with addressable LED strips) are connected to the board's ~~VUSB~~ *VIN*, GND and D4 pins. The connector is positioned in the smaller compartment. When an LED strip is plugged in the connector pair sits inside the compartment and is protected from the elements. The wires exit a slot on the side of the enclosure. The enclosure lid is a snug fit and two clip features hold it in place. Note: There are a few different sizes of "NodeMCU" boards. This suits the "Lolin NodeMCU V3" type which is 58mm x 31.5mm. ~~Buy the type without pin headers fitted, or remove them.~~ Print with the flat sides against the bed, obviously. Remix changes: - A hole for a female connector - Made the model taller for NodeMCU with pins - Created "poles" to slide in the NodeMCU without screws - Closed up the gap for the USB port Product examples that are working with this model. - [PSU female connection](https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/32997585647.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4do3XuDj) - [NodeMCU](https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/4001253175018.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4do3XuDj) - [3 pin cables](https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/33037709327.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4do3XuDj) - [PSU](https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/4000433119623.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4do3XuDj)
