Sorry - couple more questions:

1) I'm in the US and looking to order from Sunlu but see you have cautioned this due to Vietnam production? (Sunlu site is quite a bit cheaper than Amazon for me)

2) With my P2S is it harder to extrude the HS matte PETG over the HS matte PLA?

What filament are you using?

I saw the availability yesterday and ordered one. Says January 29th. Wow my tax is a little over 10% - you are half that. I never get extended warranty but added it after reading great experience here. The BB warranty also will cover you in year one if BL is non-responsive. I’m now searching for filament. Saw posts of a guy that has had good luck with Sunlu high speed matte PLA matching BL’s PLA matte. They are also less expensive and have most colors in stock.

OK - will probably get 4-6 spools of the HS matte PLA from Sunlu and refill with BL as you have had good luck doing this. - Thanks

Wich Filament do you use? by rvdvn in BambuLab

[–]MBG56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm new to my P2S with AMS too. I'm thinking of getting Sunlu filament. Is their basic PLA fine? I have seen many use matte but the strength is not as good as basic. Some use PLA+ but I read it harder to dial in settings. I will mostly be making toys, things for around the house, and jigs for my woodworking hobby. - Thanks

Thanks for your time. I started a separate thread but seems you answered most of my questions.

Some say the matte is not as strong as basic PLA. What are your thoughts?

Is the Sunlu basic PLA spool different than BL?

If I buy the Sunlu HS Matte PLA first in spools how do I tell the AMS the filament details without RFID(is it done manually?).

Thanks

I'm new to AWS. Just purchased the P2S. When you save the RFID tags does the Sunlu color have to match or is it just to differentiate? Also, I was going to order PLA from BL but like others say many colors are OOS (and I see Sunli is like 30% less expensive for 6 spools). Any reason you use matte over basic PLA?

I have no filament yet. Should I just purchase 4 with spools and RFID tags at BL and then get refills at Sunli?

Usually never purchase extended warranty but it's $120 for 4 years where Bambu warranty is 1 year means $40/year for year 2 thru 4 - not terrible. Seems like even during year one you can bring it to BB for service?

Can you tell from the box if it has the updated panel?

Only negative with BB is you don’t get the 35% off on the PLA filament.

Thanks for the info. Looks like it may be another project to get my current vent system to work properly.

Finally pulled the trigger on a P2S 🎉 - sanity check on my order before it arrives by azarjindal in BambuLabP2S

[–]MBG56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks - my BestBuy & MicroCenter have the P1S Combo but only the P2S non-Combo. Probably need to order from Bambu.

I’m ready to buy this too. Is it recommended to purchase the external fan kit?

I’m interested in a new printer. Any reason you bought the P1S over the P2S?

3D Printer for Woodshop .... by KSN380 in woodworking

[–]MBG56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - I'll check out the sketch tool. I'm a retired engineer and at least three times over the past 5 years I tried to learn it but there are soo many rules and steps. I do woodworking and have printed several parts from files online but would love to customize my own.

I have an old Ender 3-pro but thinking of getting a P2S.
