Description
CYBER DESK LAMP (12V)
In this project, you can build your own dimmable desk lamp with warm and/or cool white light to create the perfect working environment for your desk. To reach this goal, it'd be best if you had some experience with soldering. If not, you can learn the skill. The material list shows what else you'll need for this project. I built the lamp for my own workspace, and now I'm excited to share my experience with you!
Important Information
You'll need a soldering iron and some patience for the assembly. Depending on your filament and printer, the parts may vary in result. The first version only works with printers that have a minimum print bed size of 256 x 256 mm. This includes the Bambulab P1S, P1P, H2S, H2C, P2S, X1C and A1. There might be a version in the future that also includes the A1 mini.
Functions
The lamp has two control knobs so you can adjust the brightness, one for warm white and one for cool white light. You can combine them to get the full brightness.
Assemble of the LED's
First, follow the assembly guide to build the lamp. Then attach the LED's to the lamp body in an alternating pattern of warm-white and cool-white. Leave clearance at both edges for the wiring. Solder the positive (+) and negative (–) pads in series as shown in the wiring example image. Do this separately for the warm-white chain and for the cool-white chain. Leave longer leads on the first LED of each chain and feed them through the opening into the lamp body. You should end up with four wires in total: Warm + / Warm – and Cool + / Cool –. Connect these to the potentiometers as specified.
