Sometimes you just need a light in the dark. Now you can print your own lantern. And if you add some parts it even shines!
The lantern model is quite large. To print it you have to resize it. I printed the lantern at 30% and the result is still ok. Print the glass part with transparent PLA or PETG if you want to make it shine.
For the light you need
- 1x LED 5mm
- 1x matching resistor for the LED
- 1x 1.5F, 5.5V goldcap capacitor
- 1x USB micro B port
The resistor has to be soldered to the LED in serial. Solder the USB port, the capacitor and the LED in parallel. Now you can charge your lamp with power from your USB port. A 10 seconds charge will make the LED shine for at least 10 minutes.
