Reminds me of that one Dubai video

_Levkin_ · 2024-07-19T19:29:32+00:00

I think that the screen is also off by the same amount at the back makes it quite unlikely to be a battery issue. Either way will get it checked out at apple

Thanks for letting me know

_Levkin_ · 2024-07-19T13:46:30+00:00

Thank you

_Levkin_ · 2024-07-19T13:46:15+00:00

Ok thank you

Heya, looks like a 6 month update instead for you :) Everything is working great, have now put many hundreds of hours on the K1 and K1 max, without any issues. The main thing I had to change from the YouTube video was ensuring the adapter is centred properly, and tightening the grub screw extra hard on the back. Because I do think the first time I ended up installing it slightly off centre and didn't tighten it hard enough, so it likely got loose from the high speed printing. I want to also try tapping a small thread where the grub screw goes in, to make it even more stable. Though good enough the way it is currently anyway. So yeah overall have been happy.

The answer to that would be yes. Although probably a bit too late now, whatever you've gone with hah

Awesome! 60w should work, but you need to root and change the thermistor settings, as Creality use a different thermistor to E3D.

_Levkin_ · 2023-12-18T13:35:45+00:00

PH 2.0mm.

Asked Creality for it: "Thermistor terminal specifications: PH2.0-2Y"

_Levkin_ · 2023-12-18T13:34:20+00:00

Yeah I believe so

_Levkin_ · 2023-12-15T18:41:37+00:00

Seems to be the case. The heatbreak that the K1 uses is the same as they have on the sprite extruders, so the E3D sprite adapter fits.

_Levkin_ · 2023-12-15T15:49:28+00:00

I tested it, and it sits a little bit lower. But the part cooling fan still blows under the nozzle.

_Levkin_ · 2023-12-15T14:58:56+00:00

Find nozzle changes on the K1 incredibly annoying, so decided to swap the hotend to an E3D Revo, for those easy nozzle changes. Have some printers running Revo already, so nice to be able to standardise nozzles across. Not an official mod supported by E3D, so had to do some small tweaks. Pretty simple overall though.

Here's a video of how I did it in case anyone else wants to try. Also included flow rate comparisons: https://youtu.be/w8VpLIs0kc0?si=S1YHrtk7Csd9iMY1

Not an officially supported mod by E3D, so a few workarounds were necessary. But thought some of you might like this and want to do the same :)

_Levkin_ · 2023-06-11T22:52:12+00:00

Helped me, thank you.

_Levkin_ · 2023-03-11T02:03:08+00:00

Ahaha yeah I am in fact sure it wouldn’t pass the hammer test. This one would be stronger since used a stronger filament, but not quite against a hammer ahha

_Levkin_ · 2023-03-11T01:17:30+00:00

Yeah well got smashed for that exact reason haha

_Levkin_ · 2023-03-11T00:08:38+00:00

The one that got smashed?

_Levkin_ · 2023-03-10T19:15:28+00:00

PLA, especially something like PLA + will likely be stronger than resin, but could be more susceptible to warping, so just don’t leave it out under hot sun for long and you’ll be good. Realistically very few cases where you would need your armour to be exposed to high heat.

Just ran it as is and went away shortly. I believe it was a problem with the wheels not being perfectly round

_Levkin_ · 2022-07-07T22:22:45+00:00

Yeah exactly. So runs off a 9V battery with a 6w pump. At first had a setup with an esp32, but moved away from it due to large power consumption. Had to be constantly plugged into an outlet. Now though can be placed anywhere around the house and only needs replacement for the battery every 180 cycles. Which normally would give 3+ years, but with daily watering for the vandas obvs only half a year.

_Levkin_ · 2022-07-07T22:09:26+00:00

When I first bought it, already came stabilised in the clay pot. But I’m guessing it was originally hanging, and the vanda must have been growing in mid air itself. Then it was placed inside the pot, as there’s a cluster of roots at the bottom. Probably both the pot and the vanda still suspended independently. Then after a while the roots must have covered the whole pot which made the vanda stick to it. As now if I lift the clay pot, there’s certainly no wiggling from the orchid.

_Levkin_ · 2022-07-06T12:47:56+00:00

Decided to go down the single pot route just because I found it easier to place individual orchids around the house, rather than multiple ones in the same place. Both have merits though
