Minecraft Lantern with fire effect

Minecraft Lamp – Remix This is my remix of another author's Minecraft lamp design. Below is a description of the modifications, my implementation, and the available features. What has been changed? - LED Mounting: Changed the LED mounting system. The design now uses an addressable LED strip mounted on an aluminium profile.

- Arduino Mounting: Added mounting points for an Arduino board. These are optional and were not used in my build.

- Diffuser Mounting and Structural Reinforcement: Redesigned the diffuser mounting system by adding slots on all four sides to prevent the diffuser from bending inward and improve the overall structural rigidity.

- Additional Accessories: Designed a themed chain and a wall mount.

- Touch Control: Added a cutout for a touch-sensitive control sensor.

- USB Type-C and Power Switch Mounting: Added dedicated mounting points on the enclosure for a panel-mount USB Type-C connector and a standard ON/OFF switch.

My Build – Power Supply For my version, I decided to make the lamp rechargeable and battery-powered. - Used four 18650 battery cells. - Used a power bank module for charging and power management.

Note: A standard USB Type-C powered version is also possible. For stable operation, use a separate power supply for the LED strip rated for at least 2A, or limit the LED current in the Arduino code included with this project. Power Switch: In the battery-powered version, the main power switch is necessary to completely disconnect the electronics and prevent the Arduino from continuously draining the batteries when the lamp is not in use. Touch Control – Functions The lamp is controlled entirely through a touch sensor: - Touch and Hold: Increase or decrease brightness. - Single Tap: Turn the lamp ON/OFF. - Double Tap: Switch between lighting modes. - Triple Tap: Turn white light ON/OFF. - Four Taps: Start/stop automatic lighting mode cycling.

Lighting Effects The lamp features the following lighting effects: - Chasing Light: A single illuminated LED moving from top to bottom along the strip. - Fireflies: Randomly glowing and fading lights. - Color Changing: Smooth transitions between different colors. - Rainbow: A flowing rainbow color effect. - Confetti: Random bursts of colorful lights. - Fire: A realistic flickering flame effect.
