RAMMSTEIN LED LOGO LIGHT

About printing:

Everything is printed in PLA.
The parts printed in clear PLA are snug fitted in the “INLAY_FRONT”, and secured with super glue. The complete front has sufficient tension so that it does not need to be glued. 
The “LED_WALL” is secured with the M3 bolts, and serves to separate the red light from the white. To put everything together, look at the pictures it's easy.

A little explanation about the use of the LEDs:

Because I wanted to use my current 5V power supply I used the step-UP to be able to place several LEDs in series (and avoid the use of series resistors) NOTE: Vf_max red led = 2.1 V, Vf_max white led = 3.8V. I had a good result with 5 white LEDs in series and 7 red LEDs in series at a voltage of +/- 11.8 V. So 4 circuits for the white LEDs and 2 circuits for the red LEDs. You'll have to experience this yourself, but measure the voltage across a single LED and make sure you don't exceed the max. Vf
