A modern take on the classic candle light, designed to be easily 3D printed, without any support, on a modern inexpensive 3D Printer. It is designed to use inexpensive Flameless LED Candles for the light source. Included along with the base, there are 3 different lens style to choose from.
This object’s parts can be printed with a variety of materials, including PLA, PETG, ABS and other type of printable materials. The base can be printed in any color. The lenses work well with translucent, semi-clear or transparent materials.
PLA works very well for both the base and the lens. It is easy to print. The candle light should be durable, easy to maintain, and last for a long time. However, it is not designed to use real candles. Only use Flameless LED Candles, due to the risk of fire. It should not be stored or kept at high temperatures, exceeding ~55 C (~ 130 F).
Should the candle light be left in a high temperature environment, such as a parked car in the summer, I strongly recommend using another heat tolerant material, such as PETG or ABS, to prevent distortion or warping.
