From the project

My notes on the course "PCB design with KiCAD - updated for KiCAD 9" by Dr Peter Dalmaris in Udemy

make it clip snuggly while allowing for tolerances, (especially on the soldered components) is fun

LED Torch: common questions

How big is the LED Torch PCB?

The LED Torch measures 61.1 × 26.3 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the LED Torch?

4 components, from 4 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the LED Torch design files?

From the mhered/KiCAD_udemy_course repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the LED Torch design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with mhered. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
