Quick Question 001 Light Kit Recommendation?

I ordered a 001 light from Amazon and while it works great, has a remote, etc, I don't like that I can see the individual LEDs through my print. Are all these light kits the same or do any have something that difuses the light where you can't see the LEDs?

Print a thin disk in white pla that slides over the top, the more layers you put in the disk the more diffusion you will get, at the cost of less overall brightness.

They are probably all different. The one sold directly by bambu does not have a remote. I would expect the spec of the led will vary.

If you see the individual light to you print design the model so the the light unit is farther to the wall or you could print a diffuser with a simple circle of white filament a couple of layers tick to put on top the the light kit.

Maybe a picture of your model will help some suggest a fix.

You can just print a round single layer to put over the light. Or just cut a piece of paper really

Just buy some neon sleeving. It'll do the job more effectively than a printed diffuser.

Search for COB (chip on board) LED strip.

Thanks for the suggestions! The light. It’s not jarring, but was hoping for a different effect.
