Skullvalanche<p>I am on a personal quest to fix a problem which has plagued <a href="https://gladtech.social/tags/Hanukkah" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hanukkah</span></a> since the dawn of time.</p><p>And by "dawn of time" I mean since <a href="https://gladtech.social/tags/LEDs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LEDs</span></a> were invented.</p><p>There are many LED menorahs, but they're all-in-one things, with the LED "candles" built into the <a href="https://gladtech.social/tags/menorah" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>menorah</span></a>. I have one, and it's fine, but I also kinda hate it. What I *really* want is LED candles which I can stick in whatever menorah I want. A BYOM(enorah) solution.</p><p>I found some incredibly misleading ones on Amazon, which are photoshopped to look like they fit in a typical menorah, but are in fact GIANT AAA battery powered candles which are 4x bigger than a typical menorah would accommodate.</p><p>Despite the absurdly prescriptive nature of most <a href="https://gladtech.social/tags/Jewish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jewish</span></a> traditions, there is no mandate for the size of a Hanukkah candle... but most of them are about 9mm diameter.</p><p>So, somewhat in a similar vein to <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mas.to/@TechConnectify" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>TechConnectify</span></a></span> 's quest for the perfect Xmas lights, I am iterating on 3D printing my own LED Hanukkah candles. Or more specifically, I am printing "holders" for some of these - <a href="https://a.co/d/iaM59TD" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">a.co/d/iaM59TD</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>I'm up to my 9th revision so far... I think I'm honing in on a good solution, but with each print I manage to discover some new innovation or problem I want to address. 😂</p><p><a href="https://gladtech.social/tags/3Dprinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>3Dprinting</span></a></p>
