Warmoon light cover + USB dynamo hub charging

Description

A Light Cover For The Warmoon Mr16 Light. Secures Using Zip Ties About 0.2" Wide. Https://Www.Amazon.Com/Warmoon-Daylight-Dimmable-Spotlight-Equivalent/Dp/B01Dy1So4A I Designed This As A Waterproof (?) Cover Since I Wanted To Use This Light In Conjunction With My Sanyo Nh-H27 Dynamo Hub (Standard 6V/3W Hub) For Bike Use (Touring Specifically). I Think I Tested It To Fit Okay. Never Actually Ended Up Using It. It Would Be Easy To Add Features To Make It Mount To The Handlebars Or Something. Bonus Dynamo Hub Usb Charging: You Can Unsolder The Warmoon Light Connections & Use Just The Socket/Circuitry To Make A Usb Charging Outlet With A Car Cigarette-Style Usb Charger If You Solder It Correctly. You Could Add Other Stuff Like A Fuse To Protect Your Load (Phone, Etc.). Note That With This Method, You Are Discarding The Light Itself. I Haven'T Made Something To Use Both The Light & The Usb Charging. This Light'S Circuitry Converts The Hub'S Ac Power To Dc, & The Cigarette Charger Regulates It To 5V For Most Usb Devices (I Think). I'M Terrible With Electronics, So Do This At Your Own Risk. I Have Tried This Setup Before & I Couldn'T Tell If I Was Getting A Net Charge, Although A Cell Phone Did Confirm That It Was Receiving Power. The Stuff Labeled "Housing Final" Is Pertinent To Housing The Electronics Necessary To Complete This Dynamo Usb Charging Stuff. It Has A Usb Outlet On One End & A Small Hole To Fit A Charging Led Indicator Light That Came On The Cigarette Lighter I Used. Also Uses 0.2" Zipties To Close The Covers Together. You Could Use Hot Glue To Seal It Pretty Well, I Think. I Haven'T Printed/Tested This Latter Design.
