Was gifted some old lights that were designed to be stuck into holes in wood. Didn’t want to drill holes that big into my kitchen cabinets, so I designed and printed these holders that can be screwed to the cabinets and hold the lights. Also the lights are surrounded by it, so they don’t glare. Here are the results:

Combined it with two smart plugs, one that’s connected directly to the lights and one that sits in the socket right under the light switch. The one under the light switch is configured with a „scene“, that means if I press the little button on it, the plug connected to the lights will turn on, allowing me to use it as physical remote switch, while still being able to use the socket.

    These lights were originally designed to be used with a bathroom mirror I think. I just repurposed them as I was given them for free. But yes, I definitely wouldn’t want to drill holes that big into my kitchen cabinets. The little screw holes don’t bother me that much, they can be covered up once if needed.
