An insert to put a DIP type LED inside a balloon and allow it to be filled and tied off easily.
Has recess in the bottom for a 2X10MM magnet.
This works with the throwie kit that we sell at LilyLEDs

The grooves are for tie-off's or elastics.
It will need a plug for inside the bottom or could put some thin tape or something over the magnet before inserting it to give a good seal.

Could also be used as a thrust or propellant device for balloon powered vehicles.

I printed one on a Makerbot and it needs to be upscaled maybe 3-4% for the pieces to fit in.
It did print better horizontally,
