Finally added some more lights to the P1S. Relay controlled from USB-A port.

Trickier than I thought as the original light seems to be controlled by a NPN transistor which threw me off when using the 0V from the USB-A. Feel free to ask if you want to know how to do this yourself without risking burning your board.

Huge upgrade for very little money.

    Well I can certainly send you links to the brilliant work of others that inspired me. 🤣

    This is the base slider I use for the glass, with these risers for the AMS and this addon for an LED strip.

    The LED strip I purchased is this one. I did have to use a dremel to widen the wire way on the slider/riser system, and (of course) had to cut off a good length of excess LED, but there was a very convenient cut point that means most of the back edge isn’t covered by light, but it still works great.
