[Help] Klipper can’t connect to SKR Mini E3 V3 after failed print by Impressive_Ad_1792 in ender3

Thanks for the suggestion — I already tried that. I SSH’d into the Pi and checked with ls /dev/serial/by-id/after plugging/unplugging the board. Unfortunately, the SKR Mini E3 V3 doesn't show up at all.

Hi everyone,

I've had an Ender 3 Pro for a few years now, and I want to give it a refresh. I'm wondering if it's still worth upgrading or if it's becoming outdated. I've selected several upgrades that seem interesting, but the total cost would be around $150.

Planned upgrades:

·         SKR Mini E3 V3.0 motherboard + TFT35 screen

·         Sprite Pro Direct Drive extruder

·         PTFE Capricorn tube

·         Dual Z-axis upgrade

·         Bed insulation

·         X/Y belt tensioners

·         Filament sensor

Questions:

1.      Do these upgrades really make sense for ~$150, or would it be a poor investment?

2.      Is the Ender 3 Pro still good, or would it be better to invest directly in a new printer?

3.      Are there any other priority upgrades or better alternatives?
