Mount Adafruit NeoPixel Sticks on the V0 Y-rail Extrusions

• Add controllable RGB(W) LEDs to your V0
• No heatset inserts required
• Compatible with NeoPixel Sticks from Adafruit
• Large cavity inside the body makes wire management easier
• Light guides prevent LEDs from blinding you
• Designed with Timmit99's V0 Umbilical in mind (not required)

_Inspired by the mod from JNP_

BOM

• Printed parts
• (2) Adafruit NeoPixel Stick
• (8) M2x6 flat head - to mount covers
• (4) M2x8 SHCS/BHCS - to mount the PCBs
• (4) M3x6 SHCS/BHCS - to mount the assemblies to the Y-rail extrusions
• (4) M3 nuts - to mount the assemblies to the Y-rail extrusions
• (2) JST-XH connector plug 4-position - to allow for easy disconnection (optional)
• 22awg wire

Assembly

• Solder wires of appropriate length onto the back of each PCB (VDC, GND, DIN, and DOUT)
• If using JST-XH as disconnects, solder the other ends of the wires to 4-position (male) connectors - the connector should fit inside the body cavity once assembled
• Mount the PCBs inside the printed bodies using M2x8s
• Don't install the printed covers at this stage

Installation

• Insert 2x M3 nuts on the bottom side of each Y-rail extrusion - requires partial frame disassembly if already assembled
• For the wire path, you have two choices:
  • Drill 1/4
