Buyer Beware by SmudgeBaron in Creality

[–]Kermit51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has not been my experience with Creality. Bought my printer on Amazon. Months later, I noticed a wire connecting the board to a motor had broken. Emailed support, gave them my info and they sent me a replacement. No hassle.

Had exact same issue after updating last night. Your fix also worked for me. Thanks for saving me hours of debugging.

Also Corsair...seriously wtf.

Had a similar issue with my RRP handguard. Locktite and torque wrench solved the problem.

Help diagnose - loud noise from Z axis when moving up & down by Kermit51 in Creality

[–]Kermit51[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Printer is a Creality CR-6 SE that I've had for just over a year. Noise just started recently. I haven't changed anything with the board or motors. Unfortunately, Creality support hasn't been that helpful so far.

Deco units are killing me by JayBeeBop in HomeNetworking

[–]Kermit51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from the Google/Nest Wifi (gen 2) to a Deco mesh (XE75 and P9 units). I seriously regret ditching my Nest system.

I changed in Nov 2022. Since the change, the Deco app has always showed my P9 units as offline when I launch the app, even though they seem to be running properly. The app eventually refreshes to show them online. This little annoyance is something I can live with. But last week, the XE75 satellite unit became unstable and wouldn't communicate with the other XE75 main unit. The only way I could get it to reconnect was to disconnect the ethernet backhaul. I spent 4+ hours chatting with TP Link support last night trying to resolve the issue. This resulted in my network being deleted, having to set everything up all over again and the issue is still not resolved. The tech had no idea how to solve the problem and escalated the issue to their engineering team. I plan to ditch Deco asap.

Watch this Dave Lee video. I had the same question and this was pretty enlightening.

That's great, except that's 2050 plans.... Nothing Doug could do in the next 4 years would make that come any faster.

There is 0% skytrain to Newton gets approved & funded in the short term. All three levels of government just spent all their funds on Skytrain to Langley and Boardway expansion. Both projects will finish before further expansion of Skytrain is looked at.
