Lamp "Sunset" - LED 12V - 3D Printed
Introduction: Lamp "Sunset" - LED 12V - 3D Printed
I came up with the idea for this lamp when, just for fun, I held a light source behind the Fruit Basket "Cradle", which I published here some time ago (https://www.instructables.com/Fruit-Basket-Cradle-3D-Printed/).
If someone had told me a few years ago that I would ever print a lampshade, I probably would have thought he was crazy. Now it has happened!
A lamp with half sunset colors, with a plain monochrome lampshade or with a classic black and white striped pattern, a lamp whose lampshade and all other parts give free play to the color design! A self-printed lamp, with individual coloring, is always something special!
A lamp made entirely of printable parts, without any support, easy to assemble and that creates an ambient light!
As with some of my other projects you need a little bit of craftsmanship here too, a.o. 492
soldering.
With 3000K the light is considered warm white. The power consumption is 2.5 watts.
Dimensions:
* H over all 29.5 cm
* H lampshade 25 cm
* Ø foot 15 cm
* Ø lampshade bottom 12.5 cm
* Ø lampshade top 10 cm

Remark: As all parts are designed to fit very precisely, it may happen that you have to rework one or the other part a bit with sandpaper and/or cutter due to different dimensional accuracy of the printers and the different behavior of the filaments.
Supplies

For the light installation you need:
* AC/DC Socket 5,5/2,1mm
* 4G bulb socket
* 2 Position Mini Toggle Switch
* 4G LED bulb 2,5W/250Lm IMPORTANT!: I do not advise the installation of a higher wattage bulb, because of too much heat development!
* 12 V AC/DC power adapter
