Giant Solar-Powered Christmas Light Decoration
Print Profile(5)




Bill of Materials
Description
Bring some oversized holiday magic to your yard, porch, or walkway with these giant solar-powered Christmas light ornaments!
Designed to work perfectly with the ZNYCYE / generic solar puck replacements (linked in the description), these bulbs snap right onto the solar top for a clean, secure fit— glue or silicone caulk required.
The bulb prints beautifully in vase mode using translucent PETG for that glossy, glowing “mega Christmas light” look. The top cap prints in black PLA or PETG and includes an integrated hanging loop so you can display them on hooks, trees, or along rooflines.

Sizing
The bulb is oversized for maximum visual impact—far larger than a traditional C9. Perfect for yard displays, porch lighting, or hanging in clusters for holiday décor.
The hole for the light is 72 mm, Amazon has several different versions usually sold as 2.76'' bottom size.
Notes
After printing a lot of these, I’ve found that a 0.8 mm nozzle with 0.32 mm layer height gives the best results. Using 0.40 mm layers left small gaps near the very top, while a 0.4 mm nozzle produced walls that were too thin and resulted in the same top gaps. The 0.8 / 0.32 combo has consistently printed perfectly.
- Thanks for looking!
