This is an electronics case designed to fit over the IKEA Koppla single-port USB charger.

That variant of the Koppla charger has since been replaced by the Småhagel charger (https://www.ikea.com/no/no/p/smahagel-1-usb-lader-hvit-70538728/), and I haven't had a chance to test if the dimensions are the same.

The idea is to place your electronics (ESP8266 board for instance) in the case, connected to the charger via a short USB-wire. Put the lid on and place the charger in an outlet and you are good to go.

Works best if the orientation of the outlet points the case upwards, but works sideways aswell if the fit is tight enough.

For more complicated projects, you can mount it on the carriage and slide that into the case. Adding a string or something similar to the holes in the sides of the carriage allows for easy retrieval should you need to change something.

The lid and case are best printed standing (the orientation they have when opened in the slicer), while the carriage can be printed either orientation.
