Batman Night Lamp

Hi All,

Few months back I was inspired by Yet another Batman Lamp. I wanted to make one, but I did not want to buy a new plywood or MDF sheet. I wanted to reuse / recycle what I already had.

So I made following changes in my design

• I will use cardboard instead of plywood
• Build smaller
• Lesser LED lights for night lamp

And you do not need any power tools.. safe to replicate at home for any new DIY enthusiast

• A cardboard piece 18" x 7"
• Cutter
• Amber led strip
• Led 12V driver
• Thin wires, suitable for DC
• Electric wire with power socket
• Pencil, scale and eraser
• Black acrylic paint
• Soldering iron
• Hot glue gun

I got my cardboard from one of the Amazon's delivery boxes and the wires from my previous projects

• One can download batman's logo from internet
• I decided to hand draw it, mine is 18" x 7"
• Carefully cut the batman's logo as shown

• I wanted this lamp as a night lamp
• So to reduce light, I have used just 5 LED strip elements
• Connect all +ve to each other and the LED driver
• Connect all -ve to each other and the LED driver
• Solder all connections
• Connect the 220V input to the LED driver with electrical wire with power socket
• Hot glue the cables in place

• Paint the front side and the edges with black acrylic paint
• You can decorate with stickers or draw on it
• Using double side tape to hang it on the wall
• Switch on the lamp and admire
