A very simple / Quick & dirty LED strip holder for i3 mega
(freecad part attached, the black part is fully parametric)

Shopping list :
* 12V led strip, we'll need only ~ 30cm of it (i'm using super cheap banggood one)
* long usb cable
* DC/DC boost converter, any cheap one will do, we are way below 1A

The strip holder is made of 2 parts :
* The black part (led_clip) : Print it in black
* The light pipe : Print it in white, it will make the light more diffuse and less dazzling

Once assembled, you just clip the whole thing on the top bar of the i3 mega
(it can be easily removed)

You'll need 2 of each as they are only 15cm long. You can print them @ 0.3, it's pretty fast to print

You can use hot glue, the whole thing is hidden by the i3 top bar, does not need to be pretty.

Glue the LED strip inside the slots on the black parts.
Then glue the light pipe around the led strip


Finally, i used a spare usb cable and a boost converter to get ~ 11.5 v from a u
