EZNeo RGB Printer Lighting Kit – 220mm Length
From: $17.99
Add some awesome lighting to your 3D printer with our EZNeo kit! Uses NeoPixel compatible LEDs on them that are all individually addressable. Includes cable, cable covers, mounting hardware, and the strip itself.
LET THERE BE RGB LIGHT!
Hello fellow kids! We heard you like the RGBs. Tired of trying to see your printer in a dark room or monitor your printer with your OctoPrint setup? Now you can have a dedicated light for your 3D printer that bolts up to the frame in just a few minutes. These strips use a thick, rigid PCB for easy mounting and heat dissipation. The 5050 size NeoPixel compatible LEDs on here work great with Marlin and many other control boards that support the NeoPixel protocol.
In addition to providing lighting so you can see your print easier, these will also cycle through colors like a progress bar as your printer begins its preheating cycle before a print. After the print starts they will turn white. Once the print finishes, they will turn green so you can glance over and see it is done*.
Setup Information
Looking for how to install and wire up the EZNeo? See our Help Center section for the EZNeo strips here: EZNeo Lighting Kits – TH3D Studio LLC
*When printing over SD the LEDs will automatically change to green. If you are printing over USB you will need to update your ending Gcode to get the Green on completion. See here for how to do that:Â EZNeo – Set LEDs to Green on Print End
Is your board not covered in our documentation? Submit a request here: EZNeo Board Wiring Documentation Request – TH3D Studio LLC
Have a Touch Screen? If you have a touch screen LCD (like what is found on some Creality models) you will need to upgrade the LCD to a 12864 style to get support for LEDs on your printer. This is due to Creality using closed source, limited LCDs on their machines that are not modder/DIY friendly. We have many LCD kits for popular models here: LCD Upgrade/Conversion Kits – TH3D Studio LLC
GIGADEVICE AND OTHER CLONE CPU WARNING –Â If your board requires a “Maple” build environment these will not work because the clone CPUs use the “Maple” build environments and that environment is not compatible with NeoPixel libraries required to drive the LEDs. Creality boards with the GD32F303 series chips can use STM32 build environments and work with these LED kits.

All Other Boards
When used with a separate 5V power adapter/step down and a free IO pin you can use these strips on virtually any printer. Any IO pin that is used for a BL Touch, Endstop, or another general-purpose IO pin can be used to communicate with the EZNeo strips and the printer firmware. We have documentation for wiring them up with a step-down and setting them up for use with Marlin firmware in our help center here: EZNeo Lighting Kits – TH3D Studio LLC
Documented boards that need the universal power adapter:

1284P “Melzi” Boards
Due to memory and IO pin limitations, we do not officially support using the EZNeos on a 1284p board. 2560 CPU or higher required. If you are not sure if you have a 1284p board then contact support with a picture of your board. If you have a 1284p board and want to use the EZNeo you will need to upgrade to a newer board that has more IO pins and space on its CPU.

Hello there, I was wondering if these led strips covered the cold white to warm white range?

These are RGB LEDs, they make white by lighting up all 3 colors at the same time. There are not dedicated, separate white LEDs on them.

It can be used with the V4.2.7 if you have the Universal Power adapter as well. See here: EZNeo – Creality V4.2.X Board Setup

There are a few plugins for controlling NeoPixel LEDs from a Raspberry Pi GPIO pin. Here are a few I found with a quick search in the Octoprint plugin database:
WS281x LED Status
OctoPrint-Enclosure
These are just some examples for your reference. We don’t provide support for these plugins as they are community-made ones that are available. The EZNeo strips are compatible with the NeoPixel protocol so they will work with other plugins/boards/etc that “speak” that protocol.

EZNeo is a great product! Highly recommend it. It has made OctoPrint camera monitoring much nicer!
The Question: So far, I have been running the stock Creality firmware in my 3v2 so when I first installed the EZNeo, I wired the white signal wire that goes to the EZNeo to the SPI port on my Pi running OctoPrint and I have been using the WS281x plugin in OctoPrint to control the LED strip. Today I flashed to JyersUI and also installed a 3.5″ touch screen on the OctoPrint Pi which requires usage of the SPI pin I was using to control EZNeo. Do you know if the JyersUI firmware supports controlling EZNeo from the 4.2.2 3v2 board?

You would need to contact Jyers for support on their firmware. I am not sure if they have support for it on the LCD side of things.

Yes, you can if you just wire them in parallel with a splitter. THis would be a DIY thing but if you can solder some wires together you can run 2 off one EZBoard Lite adapter board with no issue. The LEDs will be controlled in parallel on each strip.

If the strip is RGB can the color be controlled somehow. Maybe via Octoprint or some other fashion. I seen one video where the guy had white while printing, red while cooling, and green when cooled done.

Even when connected to the printer control board you can control each LED individually with GCode commands in Marlin and many other firmware. See here for the Marlin Gcode page: M150 Command

Do you guys have any input on mounting options for the Ender 5 Pro/Ender 5. I’really excited about this product. I like the idea of the lights indicating the status of the printer and the pretty colors, LOL. Do you know of any possible mounting brackets that would aim the lights at the bed with out interfering with the operation of the gantry? printable or purchase? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hey there Nathan! We actually made some 20 degree blocks that would work great on the Ender 5. Check them out here: EZNeo – Extra Mounting STLs. They use the included hardware that comes with the strips. 🙂

d_hardman –
I am looking for an extension for the wires for the LED strip. Do you know of any that are available as I cannot reach my control board with the wires only coming out 6 inches or so after running them down the Z axis support. Also, should these plug in straight to the EZ Board V 2.0 M socket, correct (M being how the board is labeled here: https://www.th3dstudio.com/hc/product-information/ezboard/ezboard-v2-installation-guide/)?

The strips use a standard JSH-XH 3 pin plug. While we dont carry pre-made ones you can find them branded as “2s lipo” extension cables like these: https://amzn.to/3tKVRVX.
As for connecting to the EZBoard V2, yes it just simply plugs into the board on the NEOPIXEL header. Once plugged into the header, just update the firmware by telling it you have the EZNeo installed.

Very bright and fit perfectly on an Ender 6 with the mounts they have for it. I made my own longer cable for it so I didn’t have to drill a hole in the bottom. I ran it down the side, then along the bottom to the back hole for the breakout board cable.

Definitely an awesome way to give your printer some style, while also getting a light for your print bed. It was super easy to install. I will be adding this on all my new printers going forward.
