H HamishR Well-known member Jun 14, 2025 #2 Probably. But it is important to avoid hairy faceplates, if only for hygiene.

The hole in the faceplate is sized for one these. I drill the enclosure for the lens since they're press-fit. Tayda says 4mm, I've always used an 11/64" bit. It's been a few years though, so might be worth double checking on a scrap enclosure if you have one. https://www.taydaelectronics.com/optoelectronics-leds-lcd-displays/leds/led-holders-bezels/3mm-led-lampshade-protector-clear.html Last edited: Jun 14, 2025
