It is a fast and easy to build project and minimal tools are needed

Step 2: Production

I used rubber coating wire for more safety

I wrapped the ground wire around the bulb socket to make contact with the lamp body

Try not to turn the wire with the pipe parts when connecting them

Make a hole under the lamp for the electric wires

I added a touch on/off switch from aliexpress on the wire, the touch switch has 4 wires, one connected to the lamp metal body.
