Designed my Own Dartboard Surround Light

I designed my own Dartboard Surround Light since they don't sell existing Surround Lights like the Bull's Lumo or Bullet Ignite Light in my Country. I got inspiration from those lighting systems and checked the reviews for any improvements. Compared to the existing Surround light which was usually made from Styrofoam, I've got mine made from EVA Foam. I also used COB lights since I hate seeing the individual LEDs from typical strips. I designed the surround to hide to LED wires inside the foam so its much cleaner, which I saw was an issue from the existing ones. I also implemented the light switch directly on the foam, since I design my Dartboard stand to have a hole just below the board so I can route the cables from the back. The lights can be powered by a Type C PD Charger.

I previously posted my setup with a 3D printed LED ring light and some cameras for Autodarts. My 1st issue with that is I cheaped out on the ringlight, and I suck at Darts, and I kept hitting them. 2nd was I don't actually play on Autodarts, just wanted to have one, which was useless for me. So now I want a more minimalist setup. I still suck at darts, but hey, it looks cool to throw at.
