I recently upgraded my P1P to P1S and wanted to design same LED riser I had before. I improved the design in several ways and added cool new features.
Oh boy do we have a lot… I started with simple questions; what I do not like about LED risers there and what do I want want? Well I do not like clunky design, bulky design, free standing one, supports, added height.
And what I would like? I want accessories to be added to my printer but I am struggling to find mounting points.
Based on this I designed customizable LED riser.
Anyone with P1S or anyone who converted P1P to P1S or even X1C users and possibly P1P users.
By default I have 2 version fro P1S and P1P converted to P1S. The difference is foam which is on P1S hence I had to adjust design for it.
I did not test the P1P version but there is possibility to mount to the same holes so it will work but fit might not be the best. X1C has foam around the top so it cannot be bolted to the frame unless you plan to strip it. Riser most likely can be placed without mounting.
I would appreciate feedback from P1P and X1C users to adjust models to their needs.
see for yourself; the difference compared to the original light is huge.
Unlike other LED risers, this one has light that replaces the original one so it can be like the original, no need to manually turn it on and off.
As usual I like to make easy to print designs without supports, but due to constrains I was not able to come up with design without supports so I decided to split the part and glue it after. For this reason I also modeled locating pins and keys to help with assembly.
Everything is designed to work with 0.2 layer height. I presliced everything, please really use my profiles since I tested several version and fixed issues; mainly with the diffuser which has only 1 layer.
I printed everything from black PETG. The only exception is the diffuser. I had transparent PETG, but you I believe white one would be best.
