Modular Ender 3 Meanwell PSU Cover with USB Charger
Description
Upgraded my Ender 3 to the Meanwell LRS-350 PSU at the same time that I replaced the faulty crimped stock XT60 connectors (with Anderson PowerPoles), and needed a new cover, since the original is now way too big. Took the overall body of [syzkryb's design](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3163139) and modified it with a modular side panel which houses a 24V automotive USB adapter. I'm currently using it to power some 5V adhesive USB LED strips, so the print corner lights up when the printer is turned on. It also has an optional set of tabs which slot into the 2020 rail. They _don't_ lock into place there on their own, so you don't have to slide the whole assembly down the 2020 on the back of the printer. When combined with the stock screw that attaches to the rail near the top of the PSU, it holds quite nicely, and keeps the bottom of the cover further away from the print area. The USB idea and the tabs that fit into the 2020 rail came from [peed6687's design](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2986488). The [USB charger](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07F84VVB4) I used had screw ring terminal connectors on one end, so I swapped those out for some spade connectors to work on the PSU.
