LED Lithophane Backlight Kit BambuLab KC009 96×144 mm, 2 pieces

BambuLab LED Lithophane Backlight Kit KC009 contains two LED backlight panels sized 96×144 mm engineered to illuminate lithophane prints evenly across the surface. The slim panels deliver consistent edge-to-edge light that enhances contrast and relief details in translucent 3D-printed lithophanes, decorative panels and small lightboxes. The compact 96×144 mm format is suitable for desktop displays and custom frames where space is limited.

Advantages

The kit provides uniform illumination with minimal hot spots thanks to an even diffuser design. Two matching panels allow bilateral or multiple-angle lighting configurations for improved depth perception. The thin profile and standardized dimensions simplify mounting in small frames and enclosures, and the LED technology gives low heat output and energy-efficient operation compatible with continuous display use.

Suitable for

• Illuminating 3D-printed lithophanes and translucent decorative prints
• Small desktop lightboxes and display frames
• Custom backlighting mounts for art, photos, and signage
• Photography or scanning setups requiring consistent backlight

Key specifications

• Panel dimensions: 96 × 144 mm
• Quantity in kit: 2 panels
• Light source: LED panels with diffuser for even illumination
• Form factor: slim, flat panels suitable for narrow frames
• Intended use: backlighting translucent prints and small displays

How to use

Place a single panel or both panels behind a lithophane or translucent print so the diffuser faces the artwork. Secure the panel(s) inside the frame or mount using adhesive, screws or a custom bracket that fits the 96×144 mm size. Connect the panels to a compatible low-voltage LED power supply or controller according to the electrical specifications of the LED modules. Adjust the distance between panel and lithophane to control contrast and shadow softness; closer placement increases tonal contrast and sharper relief, while slightly greater distance smooths transitions.

Usage recommendations

Use a dimmable LED driver or controller when possible to fine-tune brightness for different lithophane materials and ambient lighting. Allow for ventilation if panels are enclosed for prolonged operation. Match the panel placement to the intended viewing angle and test with the actual lithophane material to find the optimal distance for the desired relief effect.
