this is my remix with the following changes:
- removed "tube" in the middle to make some space to glue the connector
- closed outer openings to prevent light emmiting, can be broken out if required
- safe some material: decrease thickness of body
- add hole in the middle for mounting
I printed this at 800% ad reached d=18,5cm diagonal and d2=16cm size for the hexagon parallel sides: https://rechneronline.de/pi/hexagon.php
Diffusor material: Acrylglas opalweiß 45% 3mm form ebay.de (seller: plexiglasxt)
Learning Curve after i finished the first version:
I glued my 8 hexaleafs togehter with hot glue, but some of them do not stick well after a day on the wall, so you might consider to use a different glue. Another remix might make sense with holes for some M3 screws.
i measured the current and reached max 38W power consumption on primary side, so there is maybe no real need to use a 12V/10A (120W) supply (which stays cold). Also depends on the used LED stripe!
