Holder for 12V to 5V USB Buck Converter
Description
I'M Using Maximpulse'S Excellent Floating Led Light (Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:2237352) For My Prusa I3 Mk2S, I'Ve Added A 12V To 5V Usb Converter That Runs Off The Printer'S 12V Power Supply. This Is A Simple Holder That Mounts Onto The Side Of The Power Supply By Friction To Hold The Converter With It'S Usb Socket. The 12V To 5V Usb Buck Converter Costs Only £0.99 From China And Can Be Found At: Https://Www.Ebay.Co.Uk/Sch/I.Html?_From=R40&_Trksid=P2380057.M570.L1313.Tr1.Trc0.A0.H0.X12V+Buck+Converter+Usb.Trs0&_Nkw=12V+Buck+Converter+Usb&_Sacat=0 Connecting The Converter To The Power Supply Is Simple: Unscrew The Ps From The Printer (4 Screws), Unscrew The Plastic Cover (3 Screws), Slide The Ps Out (Leaving All Wires Connected - It Will Only Slide A Few Inches), And Attach Wires Onto The Spare 12Vdc +/- Terminals -- Negative Connects To The Converter On What I'M Calling The "Left" Side (The Side With The Led). The Little Hole On The Left Side Is To Insert A Piece Of 1.75Mm Clear Filament To Highlight The Red Light (Not Really Necessary But Looks Good). **Update** I'Ve Created A New, Simplified Solution For The Nozzle Light. It Puts The Buck Converter And Usb Led Into A Single Unit. Check Out Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:2506110
