This wearable Iron Man Arc Reator is a simple and quick print and easy to assemble, a great addition to your cosplay collection! The Download comes with a Printable Light Diffuse Plate which should be printed in white but paper can be used just as effectively. This unit is self contained with a small 12V battery, avaliable at any electronics store, which is wired to a LED Strip. A simple groove with a slot makes it easy to slip into place with the correct orientation. The downloaded model has a loop attaced to the top to allow the Arc Reactor to be worn like a necklace. No uncomfortable straps needed!
I have copied a link of a video on how to wire it and where you can buy the components needed if you want to do it your self,

This model was printed with 0.15mm resolution and 15% infil. The Main Housing is the only part which needs support. The Entire build takes 5 hours with the defuse Plate, 4 Hours 15 Minutes with out the plate. The version sold does not come with LED (unless if you inquire...).

The model is fantastic, however there's no mounting point for the battery (there is a cut out, but it's sized for a secondary battery case. You can find one on thingiverse). I used natural PLA for the diffuser rather than white as I figured it would let more light through. Love it!
