A desktop case for the BIQU PopStatus Status Indicator for the Snapmaker U1 .
The status indicator works anywhere as long as it is on the same LAN as the printer so I designed a desktop case for the light bar. There might even be room inside for a 18650 battery and a step-up converter if you want to forego the USB cable.

Thanks for sharing!
Did I miss it?- Where is the manual for setting it up?
Setting up the PopStatus, you mean? Yeah I scratched my head a bit as well. No documentation!
The led bar creates its own wifi hotspot when it is powered on. I had to google to find a guide:
Do let me know if you need more help and I’ll happily assist in any way I can.

Ooh nice! I did not know that project existed!
The BIQU was on sale so it was an easy buy but this is an exiting option as well.

How much was Biqu one for?
37 USD.
Nice installation. Even if I still find a LED status bar more useful when it is not on the actual printer.
