The file 'LED Light For Anet A6 V2 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 79.3KB.
This is a second version of the LED light for Anet A6 that I made some weeks ago.
The previous design that I made worked perfectly but I didn't really liked two things.
First of all it was too bulky (I made it as small as I could but the 12V battery was occupying (and wasting) most of the space. Plus, the Anet A6 printer has the X axes rods placed side by side so this means that you can see what you are printing just through the space under the "extruder body". Since I placed the battery right there, that meant of seeing completely nothing).
Second, the way I attached it (hot glue was strong enough to held the light in place without problems but I wanted to redesign everything in order to achieve two things: find a more durable solution and an easy way to remove it without having to glue it again when I'll need it).
The new design solves this problem by clipping to the aluminium extruder base as you can see in the photos attached above.
In the endless universe of Things I found a design similar to mine (good job dextersxxxlab) so I worked on it to make it mine :P
I shrinked the space for the LED panel (mine measures just 2cm x 4cm) and I added a curve below the space for the LED panel since in my opinion it looked like unfinished.
At the end, I got a new holder for my LED panel smaller than the previous one, and with the feature of being easily removable.
(It works with a cheap LED panel like this one https://www.banggood.com/5050-24SMD-Car-White-LED-Interior-Dome-Door-Reading-Panel-Light-p-994543.html?rmmds=search but you can modify my stl file in order to make it works with the LED panel that you find)
