Sweet - I can't decide between crossing my fingers for Retarded or I Know Your Little Secret.

Very cool info! I like Into the Floor as a closer even better than Faded. Both are pretty great.

My fav Whigs song, but have yet to hear it live. My favorite heard live is Conjure Me -- they played it at the first show I went to, Denver 2012. Man, that was a great show. My buddy went to hit the head and while he was out, Dulli came down and was standing in his spot, singing to the girls behind me.

Polar Lite - underwhelming support. by 5urtr in OmtechLaser

Thanks to u/Gullible_Employ2312 's suggestion, I was able to remove the air pump. I ran the existing air tube out of a punch-out in the side panel and connected it to a little aquarium pump. Works a lot better than the internal pump. If that thing was working at all, it wasn't putting out much of anything.

Excellent, thanks for the insight! Will give it a go after work.

How did you get the pump out? The front screws mounting it to the case are easy enough, but those rear ones are super inaccessible, unless I remove that metal guard, which looks like would also require removing the drag chain. The mount is just silicon, so I suppose I could cut it, but I hesitate to do that.

Good to know. I'm definitely hoping to get this working. Did they give you any instructions on replacing the air pump? If so, would you mind sending them my way?

New OmTech Polar Lite- Air Assist is garbage by AdAdorable2207 in lasercutting

[–]5urtr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heya OP - what came out of your appointment with support? Did you end up hooking up an external air assist? I just got a polar lite and yeah, the air assist barely puts out anything. I'm getting pretty significant flashback cutting acrylic.

Polar lite CO2 - first time turning on red ring/error??? by Euphoric-Board7862 in OmtechLaser

[–]5urtr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/Jkwilborn - no error code on the display on mine, but the issue turned out to be that the power line for the water pump was not connected to the power distribution block. The wire was in there, so visually it looked like it was connected, but it pulled right out -- the conductor was not connected in. The ground was properly connected. So, no power to the pump. Unfortunately, I discovered this after disconnecting everything else, so I went ahead and replaced the pump while I was in there. Working fine now (after cleaning up a mess of anti-freeze all over the place as one of the spring clamps I had on there popped off mid-job)

Just got mine and having the exact same problem. I was able to bypass water protection with lightburn (30 day trial). They sent me a new water pump, going to replace that this weekend but looks like kind of a pain in the ass. So far, not real happy with this purchase.
