This project was supposed to be so easy. But a decision to add over-discharge protection backfired when I discovered that when the little DW01 lithium cell protection modules are powered up, they sometimes go into standby mode and can only be "woken" by charge current going into the cell. I hadn't broken the wire on the LED (until I pulled it!). The module had just gone into standby mode. On a plus note, the candle now has a USB-C charge port inside it for recharging the lithium cell. I like to show my failures so you don't feel so bad when your own project goes wrong. AliExpress has loads of flickering LEDs in all colours, but I've not been able to find packs of the newer style subtle version yet. Here are the scripts for making the candle parts. You can copy and paste them into OpenSCAD to get custom 3D printing files. The base:- //Candle base //Base thickness base=1.5; //Base diameter basedia=50; //Insert height height=7; difference(){ union(){ //base plate translate([0,0,0]) cylinder(h=base,d=basedia); //insert translate([0,0,base]) cylinder(h=height,d=23); //reinforcing taper translate([0,0,base]) cylinder(h=2,d1=25,d2=23); } //inner core translate([0,0,1.5]) cylinder(h=10,d=21); } $fn=100; The shaft sections:- //stackable Candle shaft //Height of main body height=50; difference(){ union(){ //Main body translate([0,0,0]) cylinder(h=height,d=25); //taper translate([0,0,height]) cylinder(h=3,d1=25,d2=23); //insert translate([0,0,height+3]) cylinder(h=6,d=23); } //core //Main body translate([0,0,0]) cylinder(h=height,d=23); //taper translate([0,0,height]) cylinder(h=3,d1=23,d2=21); //insert translate([0,0,height+3]) cylinder(h=6,d=21); } $fn=100; The flat top:- //Flat candle cap difference(){ union(){ //body translate([0,0,0]) cylinder(h=6,d=25); } //core translate([0,0,1]) cylinder(h=10,d=23); //wick slot translate([-1,-.5,-1]) cube([15,1,10]); } $fn=100; The pointed top:- //Pointed candle cap difference(){ union(){ //body translate([0,0,0]) cylinder(h=6,d=25); //cone translate([0,0,6]) cylinder(h=15,d1=25,d2=0); } //core translate([0,0,-1]) cylinder(h=7,d=23); translate([0,0,6]) cylinder(h=14,d1=23,d2=0); //wick hole translate([0,0,17]) cylinder(h=7,d=1.5); //slot translate([0,-.5,-1]) cube([15,1,22]); } $fn=100; If you enjoy my videos, you can treat me to coffee, cookies and gadgets by supporting the channel on Patreon.
