Bring the magic of physics and electronics to life with this hands-on Mini Fiberoptic Lamp DIY STEM Kit!

Students build a working fiberoptic light source from the ground up—learning about electric circuits, LED technology, and the physics of total internal reflection in an immersive, project-based format. This visually stunning lamp uses a color-changing LED to illuminate dozens of fiberoptic strands, demonstrating how light can travel long distances with minimal loss. Perfect for classroom demos, science camps, and makerspaces looking for an engaging, mess-free electronics activity.

The kit includes laser-cut wooden components, a knife-switch battery holder, color-changing LED, wiring, fiberoptic bundle, and adhesive—all the parts needed for a complete build. Educators love this project because it encourages fine-motor skills, follows core STEM principles, and results in a durable take-home model students will be proud to display.

Once assembled, the lamp measures 3.5 x 2.5 x 6 inches (8.9 x 6.4 x 15.2 cm), making it a compact and eye-catching desk accessory or science-fair presentation piece.
