Nokia BH-121 Headset Clip mod

thingiverse

PLEASE NOTE: Some DIY skills (and mind) required! I use alot wireless headsets when biking / travelling mainly because modern flat faced phones do not have volume and other controls easily available for touch +you can use any 3.5mm ear phones. So Nokia headset line was my go but unfortunately they messed up with BH-111 volume scroll wheel bad. It got caught in clothes and volume went up&down&up&down while biking and walking, so I decided to swap that to the newer model. For that they messed up with the clip thingy. A simple swipe to the pocket was enough to dislodge it from your clothes.. One thing they did right with the BH-111 was the clip! It held well. It had simple rubber against your fabric and small plastic lid pushing against on other side. So why not combine both! -> BH-121.1! :) Instructions: Building this is pretty straight forward... Clean off original clip mounts, print parts, clean, glue, polish and glue to the unit. Use ABS for this! plastic clip needs some bendiness to it. PLA might break. Do note that "pillow" part is to made with rubbery filament (FilaFlex, NinjaFlex etc.).. also when gluing to the unit, I recommend to cover the newly opened holes with tape. AND as always: THIS AVOIDS WARRANTY! I take no responsibility if your unit gets bricked, gets glued to the table, your face or ends up in smoke.. :) PS: These can still be bought from ebay at fraction of price they used to be.
