This is a universal light case for pinball backboxes that will diffuse the sharp
light from a Pirahna Super-flux LED bulb in order to have a softer appearance behind
a translite or a backglass.
The main body should be printed with clear filament in order to allow light to
pass through the support towers. Two different cap options are provided. The full
cap will give the best sideways diffusion but the least top diffusion. If you need
to more fully block the upward light, you can print the partial cap with a more
opague filament which will heavily diffuse or virtually stop the upward light
(depending on color used) but will provide lower diffusion on the sides. I found the
towers to be necessary to make the bulb installation far easier than having filled
in sides. Feel free to modify.
Install the bulb by aligning the flat side of the legs with the slots and press it
through. It may help to first clear out the small holes with a paperclip or similar.
