This a Teensy based IR blaster that lets you control most IR receiving devices from a computer via a serial port (emulated over USB by the Teensy).
Print the lid using transparent filament so you can see the cool glow of the on-board LED!

I don't like the long spur on the front of the top part of the case. It doesn't print well. As the overhang isn't that great, printing a simple hole on the front of the case would like be a better alternative.
Modeled with ViaCAD; files included.
UPDATE: Added "Simple" variants; the simple variant includes a tighter, simpler, lid without a long tab and the box has a simple LED hole instead of the slot.
UPDATE2: Even more simple; I discovered that the IR LED is powerful enough that it can broadcast through the translucent filament material without issue. Thus, no more hole needed for the LED!
