About this 3D model
// ("Daily earring" will be back soon, stay tuned) Assembly picture, http://thingiverse.com/image:87926 Here's a quick thing I whipped up today: We have a few winter house deco things infront of the window, but they have a few issues: -The lamp's low lifetime -Several Watts for dim lighting -The cable is not very decorative (see picture) +gets HOT! So I thought about LED lights on rechargeable batteries. I modded my fiancee's mother's winter city with commercial LED light-bulbs last december, but for ours I wanted it "wireless". I did see http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:9805 after I sketched my idea, but I thought I could save some material. So this is what I came up with. Very stable! +Note that it looks asymetric, but as both ends are, the contacts work fine. +No glue, no solder, no screws. Pull apart after christmas, re-use parts. +Slim design will fit into most places +Could easily be modified to use 3 batteries (most white LEDs) or to attach cells in series +I was able to get this designed and printed within about 30 minutes +buying was no option, all stores are closed today. On the picture I only showed the holder outside of the house as I only have these LEDs at the moment and they will not be bright enough on 2 cells. I plan on using yellow or 3 cells for white LEDs.
