Voron 0.2 shielded LED bar for Daylight on a matchstick v2.1 by RZT

This is a shielded LED bar mount for Voron 0.2 and likely 0.1 for the affordable “Daylight on a matchstick v2.1 by RZT”. This has an additional switch. Original design can be found here:

https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-Hardware/tree/master/Daylight

This mod reduces glare from the LEDs and it was designed to have minimal effort.

Benefits:

• It can be attached to the 1515 profiles without the need of drop in nuts
• No modification of the acrylic panels needed
• switch is accessable after assembly
• STL files beeing orientated in print orientation. No rotation, no support needed

Both models can be printed without support.

I recommend ASA/ABS and a layer height of 0.2mm.

For each side you need to print 

• 1pc LEDshield
• 2pcs bracket

Hardware required:

• 2pcs M3x12 screws (per bar)
• wire

The LED bar for this specific upgrade can be found here:

Instructions:

Turn the printer off and disconnect the ac power plug (just to be on the save side).

The connector on the PCB is too big for the limited space in the Voron V0.

You either have to:

• cut the plasic from the connector at the bar to free the metall pins and solder wire to it
• desolder the connector at the bar and solder wire to the pads or use an angled 2pin 2.54mm header (see picture)

Put the LED bar into the LED shield and attach the 2 brackets to it by tighten it with M3x12 screws.

Lead the wires through the groove of the profile and connect it to your 24V source

Push the brackets into the profiles groove.

Done! :)

Update:

I was asked to create a model that can be printed by a Voron 0.

Its attached now as “LEDshield_printable_with_Voron0.stl” - have fun :)
