Bar Graph Bezel
Assembly Instructions: http://www.ghostlab42.com/img/bezel/BarGraph_Bezel_Assembly_Instructions.pdf
Below is a photo of the parts across the bottom and several different views of the bezel across the top.
Across the top, left to right:
- Bottom view of 3D printed part (won’t show!)
Side view showing some texture from 3D printing
Top of part with Lenticular material and window tint installed
The completed assembly ready to snap onto the bar graph display
Across the bottom left to right are the five included parts:
-
- 3D Printed Bezel, made on AJs 3D printer
-
Window tint material
-
Lenticular material laser cut to perfectly fit the bezel
-
Decal with metallic contacts and black surround
-
Plexiglas window laser cut to perfectly fit the bezel
The Plexiglas parts needs to be cleaned before the decal can be applied and the lenticular part needs to have the burs removed from the bottom before applying the window tint (I sanded the bottom of my lenticular parts with 600 sandpaper).
Here is a closer photo showing a bit more of the texture in the 3D printed bezel:
And here is a reference post for this part when I was just making it for me and showing off: GB1-Style Thrower Bargraph - low tech version - Proton Packs - GBFans.com
Maybe some discussion on assembly details can be added there.
The inside dimensions were made to match the top of the WandLights bar graph display: 31mm x 7.6mm
The outside dimensions are approximately 38.7mm x 9.6mm
WandTip Expansion Kit
A replacement of the WandLights single 10mm RGB LED with a small circuit board that has a 0.875" diameter (the acrylic lens from GBFans has a diameter of 0.875") that has 3 super bright LEDs around the edge to shine directly into the acrylic to light up the frosted sections and tip and a 1W RGB LED centered on the board to send light out of the wand. Also includes a 15" cable to connect this new circuitboard to the WandLights board.
Also a version to go inside the wand tube of a Spirit Halloween Life-Size Pack’s wand tube. This also replaces the 10mm RGB LED with a small circuit board that has a 0.675" diameter that has a 1W RGB LED centered on the board to send light out of the wand. Also includes a 15" cable to connect this new circuitboard to the WandLights board.
There is no change in function or colors for the GBFans WandLights kit, the expansion is just brighter than the RGB LED that comes standard with the WandLights kit.

WandTip Expansion for a Spirit Life-Size Wand Tube:
Here is a close-up of the circuit board:
And here is a picture of the GBFans’ “Clear Acrylic Tube with Frosting” sitting on top of the circuit board:
White Strobe LED
Connection Instructions: Solid color wire connects to AUX, and wire with white stripe connects to GND.
Wire changed to twisted pair solid core since it more easily fits in the tiny red tubing on the end of the wand.
Here is an 8mm 1/2W White LED with 3 feet of wire so the LED can be placed out at the end of the Acrylic Tube to simulate the original props that used actual flash bulbs. Either this White LED or the Rumble motor can be used, but not both at the same time.
