Small Electricity plug

Goal

I wanted to integrate an electricity plug behind my mirror, which only has a few centimeters of aluminum between the glass and the wall. Only two pins are needed, no ground. I didn’t immediately find a solution that was - easily - commercially available.

Realization

Used components:

• EU to US travel adapter, which will be dismantled and replaced by the 3d-printed part.
• 3d printed parts, openscad file:
  • a new housing for the EU to US adapter, internals are just transferred without modification
  • a counter piece for the above cover (the two pieces slide in each other)
  • an (option) drilling guide to have the four drilled holes (two for screws, two for the electricity pins) somewhat decently aligned
• US to EU travel adapter
• female flat electricity socket to connect the 230V

Putting it together

• Move the internals from the EU to US travel adapter to the 3d printed part.
• Drill two M4 holes for mounting, drilling two M6 holes for the guidance of the electricity pins

Could you get rid of the second US-EU conversion, probably yes … . But feel free to mod.
