Mini Museum Illuminated LED Stand
Mini Museum Illuminated LED Stand
MM5 Backers: If you added a Stand to your pledge during the Fifth Edition campaign, please know that we have reserved your items. No need to place a second order! In addition, Stands will also be available in the Pledge Manager very soon.
Please Note: The Illuminated LED Stand does not come with the Mini Museum. It is an accessory for LARGE Mini Museums only.
Images shown with the Mini Museum are for demonstration purposes only.
First Edition (MM1) Owners: Early production runs of the Stand arrived with a custom spacer for the First Edition (MM1). The current batch does not have this spacer, so if you are going to use your Stand with a First Edition Mini Museum please be sure to let us know so we can include a spacer in your shipment. We have a limited number of spacers on hand but more are on the way.

Accessories:
- Three (3) AAA batteries
- One (1) USB Cable and Plug Set
- Three (3) Color Filters
- One (1) Reflective Surface

MM1 Owners: Earlier editions of the Stand arrived with a custom spacer for the First Edition (MM1). The current batch does not have this spacer, so if you are going to use your Stand with a First Edition Mini Museum please be sure to let us know so we can include a spacer in your shipment.
Battery Power or USB!
There is a small 3-way switch on the rear of the base, as well as a Micro USB port. The switch is used to select the mode of operation (USB, Battery, or OFF). This allows you to plug the stand into a computer, wall outlet, or run cordless anywhere.
The Micro USB port does NOT charge the batteries. The Illuminated LED Stand uses three (3) standard AAA batteries which are housed in the base and accessed through a panel on the bottom.

Add Some Color!
Three colored gel inserts are included to allow you to easily adjust the color. The color filters are meant to be used under or on top of the Mini Museum. When placed under the Mini Museum, the color effect is very dramatic. When placed on top, it is more subtle. The filters can also be combined to create different colors.
The lights are powered by three (3) AAA batteries OR the USB port on the back.

ℹ️ ASSEMBLING THE STAND
The Illuminated LED Stand inside this box is fresh from the factory. It is fully assembled for safe shipping and must be taken apart before use. However, you may find the components are fit together very tightly. This is partially by design to make sure the Stand is secure when assembled with the Mini Museum inside, but it does make the first assembly a little tricky.
To assist you, you'll find step-by-step instructions below as well as a nice video to walk you through the process. These instructions will also be included in the box, so not to worry if you are giving the Stand as a gift.
STEP 1
Hold the Stand with the battery door facing toward you.
STEP 2
Insert your thumbs into the cradle and PUSH the top off. Use gentle, even pressure. You may need to alternate pushing between each thumb.
STEP 3
When the top comes off BOTH sides, carefully lift it. Do NOT pull the lid off.
