Important Printing Information

This is a digital 3D-printable lamp design.

Final print quality, fit, stability, light diffusion, dimensional accuracy, and appearance may vary depending on printer, nozzle, filament, calibration, layer height, wall settings, infill, top and bottom layers, orientation, supports where required, colour-change setup, and slicer profile.

The lamp shade is especially dependent on consistent print quality because wall thickness, filament colour, opacity, and print settings can all affect the final illuminated appearance.

Always inspect the sliced preview carefully before printing.

Pay particular attention to:

• Shade wall consistency

• Shade attachment areas

• Lamp adapter connection

• Base flatness

• Character details

• Thin decorative features

• Layer adhesion

• Areas supporting the light source

• Overall balance and stability

Normal FDM characteristics such as visible layer lines, seams, minor dimensional variation, and slight differences in light transmission should be expected.

Sandstorm 3D Designs is not responsible for failed prints, wasted filament, warping, adhesion failures, colour-change problems, dimensional variation, incorrect slicer settings, printer malfunctions, poor layer bonding, improper adapter fit, light-source incompatibility, or other printing-related losses.

Files are supplied as-is, and the user is responsible for selecting suitable materials, printer settings, lighting components, and final assembly.

Sandstorm Rechargeable Light Bulb Adapter

The MistleMoo Lamp is designed to use the Sandstorm Rechargeable Light Bulb Adapter.

This allows a compatible rechargeable or battery-operated LED bulb to be installed without adding household mains wiring to the printed lamp.

Rechargeable bulbs can vary between manufacturers in:

• Overall diameter

• Height

• Weight

• Base dimensions

• Charging method

• Switch position

• Housing shape

• Operating temperature

Because of these differences, compatibility with every rechargeable bulb on the market cannot be guaranteed.

Always test the selected bulb and printed adapter before regular use.

The bulb should sit securely without forcing, excessive movement, modification, or instability.

LED Lighting Only

The MistleMoo Lamp is intended for use with compatible low-heat rechargeable or battery-operated LED lighting only.

Do not use incandescent, halogen, heat-lamp, high-temperature, or other heat-producing bulbs.

Even LED bulbs can create some heat during operation.

Always:

• Follow the bulb manufacturer's instructions.

• Maintain any required ventilation.

• Monitor the lamp during initial use.

• Check for heat buildup.

• Make sure the bulb is securely seated.

• Stop using the lamp if the printed components become unusually warm, soft, warped, or discoloured.

The finished 3D-printed lamp should not be considered heatproof, fireproof, or flame-resistant.

Electrical Safety

The Sandstorm lamp system is designed around self-contained rechargeable or battery-operated lighting.

The printed lamp and adapter are not designed for connection to household electrical wiring or mains voltage.

Do not:

• Install conventional household lamp wiring into the printed lamp.

• Install mains-voltage sockets.

• Route exposed household electrical wiring through the model.

• Modify the adapter for wired electrical use.

• Use damaged rechargeable bulbs, batteries, chargers, or electrical components.

Sandstorm 3D Designs does not certify the MistleMoo Lamp as a household electrical fixture.

Charging & Battery Safety

Rechargeable bulbs should always be charged according to the light manufacturer's instructions.

If the bulb manufacturer requires the bulb to be removed before charging, remove it from the lamp and adapter.

Do not modify the bulb, battery, charging contacts, cables, or printed parts to create an alternate charging method.

Discontinue use of any rechargeable bulb that shows:

• Swelling

• Cracked housing

• Damaged charging connections

• Unusual heat

• Electrical odour

• Leaking

• Discolouration

• Other signs of battery or electrical failure

Damaged rechargeable lighting products should be handled and disposed of according to the manufacturer's recommendations and applicable local requirements.

Filament & Heat Considerations

PLA may be suitable for many normal indoor decorative LED-lighting applications, but it can soften or deform when exposed to elevated temperatures.

PETG or another suitable filament may provide additional temperature resistance depending on the printer, environment, and intended use.

Regardless of filament choice:

• Use only low-heat LED lighting.

• Keep the lamp away from direct sunlight for extended periods.

• Do not place near heaters or fireplaces.

• Keep away from candles and open flame.

• Do not place in a hot vehicle.

• Monitor for heat-related deformation.

• Maintain required ventilation around the bulb.

No common 3D-printing filament should automatically be assumed to make a printed lamp fireproof or suitable for high-temperature lighting.

Shade & Light Diffusion

The illuminated appearance of the shade can change significantly depending on:

• Filament colour

• Filament opacity

• Wall thickness

• Layer height

• Bulb brightness

• Bulb colour temperature

• Print quality

Different bulbs may therefore produce different results from the promotional photographs.

A brighter bulb does not automatically mean a better result and may produce additional heat.

Choose a compatible LED bulb that provides the desired appearance while remaining within safe operating temperatures.

Stability & Placement

Before using the finished MistleMoo Lamp:

• Make sure the base sits completely flat.

• Confirm the shade is installed securely.

• Make sure the bulb and adapter are properly seated.

• Check that the assembled lamp does not rock or lean.

• Keep the lamp away from table and shelf edges.

• Place it on a stable, level surface.

• Keep adequate clearance around the shade and bulb.

• Do not place anything over the lamp that could restrict ventilation.

The lamp should not be placed where children, pets, cords, bedding, curtains, or other objects can easily knock it over.

Christmas & Decorative Safety

The MistleMoo Lamp is intended as an indoor decorative lamp.

Because it may be used as part of a Christmas display:

• Keep away from candles.

• Keep away from fireplaces and wood stoves.

• Keep away from flammable garland, paper, fabric, wrapping material, and similar decorations.

• Do not cover the shade with decorations.

• Do not place directly beneath heat-producing lighting.

• Maintain a clear area around the lamp during operation.

Never expose the printed lamp to direct flame.

Safety & Intended Use

The MistleMoo Lamp is intended for decorative indoor lighting using compatible rechargeable or battery-operated LED lighting.

It is not intended as:

• A toy

• Emergency lighting

• Safety lighting

• A night light for unsupervised safety-critical use

• A conventional wired household lamp

• An outdoor lamp

• A fireproof lighting enclosure

Inspect the lamp periodically.

Discontinue use immediately if you notice:

• Cracking

• Warping

• Heat deformation

• Discolouration

• Poor layer bonding

• Loose components

• Bulb instability

• Adapter damage

• Loss of base stability

Small broken components may present a choking hazard and should be kept away from young children and pets.
