Any simple and documented way to power a esp32 cam from the enclosure?

Hi, I would like to power the esp32 cam from the enclosure directly, is there anyway that has done it and documented. Basic board seems to have 24v outputs for the leds so probably needs volvage regulators and a way to install everything neatly. Would be great if someone has already done it so I don't have to reinvent the wheel.

Many thanks!!

RE:

See https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/postid/696441/ and further posts for some ideas.

You would need to connect to 24V and use some voltage regulator (step down module) to drop it to 5V or to 3.3V, for example https://www.pololu.com/category/131/step-down-buck-voltage-regulators

One more thing, the step down regulator should be able to output at least 1A to ensure you have enough power available for esp32 and its integrated modules in peak use.
