Build a 3D printed LED headband inspired by Bo Katan from Star Wars.

This design features engraved details that wrap around the headband and uses an adjustable elastic strap to fit comfortably over a person's head.

The LEDs are powered by a coin cell breakout board hidden inside a 3D printed battery box on the end of the elastic strap.

These miniature LEDs come in a few different colors and they come pre-wired so they’re great for prop builders and model-makers.

The Adafruit coin cell breakout features an on/off slide switch, header pins and mounting holes for securing to your projects.
