Introduction: LED Lamp
This battery powered LED lamp can be used for outdoor parties or in places where outlets are not available. It is about 7 watts and will run for 3-4 hours; depending on the batteries chosen.
LED's used can be found here:
Step 1:
Start by printing the various files. You will need two "uprights," three "cylinders" and one each of the other pieces.

Glue the two uprights together.
Step 3:
Remove the sticky tape and attach the LED lights, five on each side of the uprights.
Step 4:
Insert the upright with lights into the base.
Step 5:
Glue the cylinders and end cap together. You can melt them together with a soldering iron also.
Step 6:
Ten AA batteries (NiMH rechargeable) will be held in the base. Solder the negative battery lead to a SPST switch.
Step 7:
Take a wire from the other side of the switch and attach it to the negative wire coming from the LED module.
Step 8:
Solder the positive battery lead to the positive lead on the LED module.
Step 9:
Push the wires neatly inside the base.
Step 10:
Add batteries.
Step 11:
Clip on the "base clip" to secure the batteries.
Step 12:
Place the lamp in a selected spot and turn it on. I used a 3d printed table

If you prefer, the lamp can be powered by a dc power supply, 12 volts capable of supplying 700 mA or more.
