Description
Bambu Lab P1 Series Toolhead Logo Mod
This mod adds the illuminated Bambu Lab toolhead logo to the P1 and P1S printers
It utilises the X1 Front Housing Assembly available from the Bambu Lab store.
Just search under X1 Spare Parts for this item:
The X1 Front Housing Assembly includes the LED PCB. The toolhead wiring on the X1 and P1 series is different. The LED's are enabled by using a mini 24V to 5V DC converter housed in a printed part and wired as per the schematic. The model includes a printed lens which allows the logo to be illuminated in a colour of your choice depending on filament used. A translucent material provides best results. Two different lens models are included each with a different layer thickness which alters the brightness of the logo.
Link to 24V to 5V DC-DC Converter used in this project:
This particular converter was chosen for its compact size of 18mm x 13mm and its thermal efficiency ( low heat). I purchased in the UK but this particular model is widely available on eBay, Aliexpress, etc. A Google image search will list alternative sources.
The connectors on the LED PCB are 4 Pin and 6 pin Molex 1.25 Picoblade compatible

Looks good. Glad there was enough info for you to work it out. Currently working on a revised version which incorporates a mini slide switch so the LED’s can be easily switched off if required. It’ll be an easy add-on option for what you got already not starting over

what wires did you use on the fan 24vdc? newer fans are model DB5015B24M-P and my P1S, like yours, has model
YY5015H24B and have a different wiring order. My YY model fan also has sealed solder connections on the fan whereas the DB DB model are exposed, sadly I was planning on soldering my 24vdc wires to those points. Is there is good picture of the YY model wiring especially +/- 24vdc. Thank-you in advance.

Hi, sorry for the delayed response, if you peel back the sticker on the fan it will reveal the PCB where you can see the pinout.
I've attached the pinout for the DB, I will get an image of the YY model once the printer becomes free.
Hopefully, this helps with things.

Great Upload!
Which fan did you use, I have noticed they are different between the P1s and X1.
Maybe one is better?

Hi, I used the original fan from the P1 as it has the right connector. I unsoldered the cables from the fan that came with the X1 housing and used 2 cores of that cable (Black and Dark Grey ) to splice into the P1 fan cable and pick up the 24V. The connector from that cable then supplies the feed to the LED PCB via the left hand socket. Check that you get the positive and Ground (negative) the right way round. If you peel back the label on the fan slightly where the cables attach you can confirm the polarity of each. The plus (+) and minus(-) are marked on the fan terminals. Hope this helps

Thank you for the info. I’ve soldered the 24v into the board so I can now use my printer again but waiting for the Molex Picoblade connector to arrive, hopefully today.

Nice work. I purchased the 6 pin Picoblade with short tails already connected just to simplify things.
Let me know how you get on

Schöne arbeit, den 6 Pin Stecker brauch man aber nicht unbeding. es geht auch mit 2x2 Pin !
Die Einsätze hab ich aus ABS gedruckt, so sind sie schön flexibel.

It was very easy to handle. The only thing i have done different.. Is to take the Lens (the one that let more light trough it) and Print it with 100% Infill.
looks great.

Hi, glad it worked out for you. I printed a few different lenses before I got the colour and level of light I was happy with

Hi, even if you create your own PCB with leds it will not work with the Front Housing that is standard on the P Series printers. You need the Front Housing from the X1 because it has the “Bambu Lab” lettering on the front moulded in a translucent plastic to allow the leds to shine through. The lettering on the front of the P Series Front Housing is just printed on. If you hold it up to the light you will see that it is opaque and won’t work even if you have the leds. Hope this helps.

OK, that's great. Did you manage to print the "Bambu Lab" lettering in a clear resin?
