Printed in ABS ant PETG.
Easy print, snug fit. Thanks for the perfect design.

Thank you!! I’m glad you like it!!

Strange, the XXL V3 is too big for my Daylights XXL?

@Mike_2566820 Really sorry they where too big, the Daylights must be a slightly different form factor and had been told that they where the same. Happy to make adjustments for you if you would like

Hey thanks, I ended up modelling them in Fusion and reprinted. Daylights seem to be all over the map.

Printed in Polymaker PolyMax PC, Red for carrier, Black for end caps, and Polymaker PolyLite PC for the diffuser. On the whole, this design isn't bad, but there's definitely things that could be better:

1. The carriers lack bottom chamfers, which can give elephant's foot issues.
2. Mounting the LEDs to the carrier involves screwing directly into plastic, which is suboptimal and doesn't do well with disassembly and reassembly. These should really be heatset inserts, on a thicker base.
3. The Voron-style decorative cutouts on the bottom of the carriers increase print time significantly, but are hardly visible, especially with a panel attached.
4. The end caps don't 'snap on' to the diffuser-carrier combo, which makes attaching these much harder than it needs to be. I actually had one of these fall out before.
5. It's be nice if the endcaps had some cutouts or something for wire management.

I'll still use these, but these design improvements would make them much better, and wouldn't be too difficult to do.

EDIT: The V2 design addressed all my concerns. Updating the rating to 5 stars, as now, it's basically ideal. (edited)

@koz_348738 Oops, this is what happens when you update models during your lunch break and get interupted LOL

@Micko I've made V2 versions of the carrier and end caps, and updated the rating to 5 stars. Thank you again for your work!
