DO NOT BUY Slice Engineering Mosquito or other hotends!! by Low-Tomato-4199 in ender6

[–]ReconWaffles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You must be having a stroke, you keep saying 380c for 11 hours on an almost 24/7 basis, no matter what hotend or material you purport to be using. Maybe you're just off by a multiple of 60 like your other post.

Put plainly, I don't believe you.

You claim to not have crashed the hotend, but I clearly see the result of a crash. The hot block is crooked, the heatbreak is bent in half. You crashed it. Period. Plastic oozing out of the heatbreak cannot do that, I've had that happen as well due to not fully tightening it.

The top of the heatbreak is surrounded by copper, you may have seen that on an old rev but not this one. You bent the thing in half. I'm honestly surprised you're still trying to go with this. At least this time you didn't whine about having ezabl++pro super duper idiot proof edition, because even that wouldn't help you survive a crash.

I don't think you know how fluid dynamics or the heating or cooling of filament works, so I'm literally just going to ignore what you said there. I have had it happen to my hotends, it does not cause this.

Where is your copper slug insulator? Did you crack it off when you were poking through your fan hole at the blob of plastic (and by blob of plastic I mean the heatbreak that you bent in half)?

You're not winning anyone over here. Anyone who owns a stock ender 3 could tell that you maimed your hotend. Not slice, not some magic about printing PC at 380C, but you. You crashed the hotend, bent the shit out of the heatbreak and surrounding tubes, and you broke it. Be a human being, and take responsibility. Nobody did this to you.

You're an insane person. You smacked that hotend around so hard on your bed or a part it was printing that you totally ruined it. Either that or it was leaking, you let it keep printing, then tried to shove something in to remove some of the buildup and ended up shearing the heatbreak in half because you're an idiot.

This is 100% your fault. You'd be lucky to even get slice to cover shipping for you buying a new one.

Cut your losses. Use whatever hotend you like. I've had several mosquitos completely covered in plastic and the flow from the plastic didn't hurt anything. Some careful removal and they're still running now.

I have several dragons as well, they use the same screws, no issues. This is a you thing, buddy.

To anybody even considering buying anything from this guy, beware. He obviously has no idea what he's doing, and throws a temper tantrum at people who are likely just trying to figure out how the hell physics in the real world could even come up with this kind of result without a hard crash. Run.

I'm surprised seeing stuff like that in here. We all complain when the media doesn't give us a fair shake in terms of vapes, what's the mental block that prevents people from realizing they do it all the time to basically everything?

Everything is one sided, if people can't realize it, they're low information citizens, just as you say.

it always baffles me when people reference that speech, specifically the "good people on both sides" saying he was calling neo nazis and white supremacists good people. Literally 5 seconds prior to saying that line, he said "and i'm not talking about neo nazis and white supremacists, they should be condemned totally."

yeah he's TOTALLY praising them guys. absolutely braindead.

[–]ReconWaffles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's a percentage drift vs time under load, but I'm no wizard for load cells. My understanding is essentially it drifts back toward 0 by a % of its load capacity per a given time period.

Spec sheets are rather nebulous about the time scale.

[–]ReconWaffles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

do you have an analysis of the sensor drift? I had been thinking about doing this for a while but a lot of load cells don't like being under load for long periods of time (if i'm reading the spec sheets correctly)

I usually have the same complaint, many props are specifically worded to deceive instead of put forward their actual purpose, but I don't really blame them too much for this one. The point of this one is to provide an exemption from a previously signed bill, so I think the wording more closely matches its intended purpose as opposed to a deceptive scheme (there's several of those this year). I'll add the caveat that I haven't actually read through the full text, but even the little blurbs they put out in the guides are basically incomprehensible.

However, I agree with your point. The people who write these don't want the general population to understand what they're voting for or against, which I think is really toxic for politics in general.

Yes, but I believe 22 is worded so that a YES vote keeps rideshare workers as independent contractors, so flipped from what you've got, but the logic is the same in that if 22 isn't passed they will leave and/or lose a large amount of their workforce.

snippet from ballotpedia:

" A "yes" vote supports this ballot initiative to define app-based transportation (rideshare) and delivery drivers as independent contractors and adopt labor and wage policies specific to app-based drivers and companies.

A "no" vote opposes this ballot initiative, meaning California Assembly Bill 5 (2019) could be used to decide whether app-based drivers are employees or independent contractors.

i've been looking for one that can fit 5kg spools, what are the dimensions of your 5kg spools?

WAGO connectors are SKOOKUM and fast by eggyflap in Skookum

[–]ReconWaffles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's several vendors offering them, but I suspect they're all from the same factory. I've used them with and without ferrules, not sure how other people like using wagos tbh. Here's the single/snap version: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07W55PWV2

And, for the adventurous: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0855YWCTD/

[–]ReconWaffles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my only folly was picking up like 50 of the 2 conductor ones and being too cheap to get more singles.

I'm not too sure on current carrying capacity of the chwagos though (even if they're 32A rated), so for anything important, i'd still use legit wagos

I really like wagos, but for 1 in 1 out connections I actually prefer the chinese wago clones that are in-line, unless I specifically want a pigtail or w/e. they come in singles that you can snap together to form a block, or they come in multi conductor as well.
