A subject firstly spoken about in the Homey Antenna Mode thread is an case mod. based on this interest I’ve created a rough 3d model in which the dimensions are correct. the model has 123x123mm base because my 3D printer does not exceed these dimensions. [image] Homey Case v1.x by lveffer…

Goed bezig HERMAN!. Welkom in the community :wink: [image]

Shouldn’t be too hard to find a 5V source inside homey [image] Sat2All: Welke (5v) voeding gebruik je hiervoor? ik weet het nog niet zeker, maar het zou niet zo moeilijk moeten zijn om ergens een 5V-bron te vinden

Klopt, maar via de huidige USB ga je het niet trekken / the current power supply is not enough.

As we are in the English part of the forums plz stick to English.

I think Homey’s power supply should be able to take the extra 80mA that the amplifier requires.

whats the wall thickness you would print such a case? What would be your expected cost and time to make one?

I really don’t have a clue, the wall thickness is 2mm, I would print is solid (no mesh). when the final design is finished I can calculate the weight of PLA that is used with the different “resolutions”. I would be amazed is this uses more than 200gr. of PLA.

This is actually the first time i’m designing something, so perhaps I not doing things right but please let me know. before this I only downloaded models from thingiverse and print them. Sadly there is no Homey Case on thingi verse yet :grinning:.

I have a 3D printer too but it is currently in pieces. Yeah I think 2mm would be fine but I wouldn’t print it solid. It’s too time consuming for a case that will never experience any forces. You could maybe do a 50% infill to save a lot of time and a little bit of material. It’s cooler to start fro…
