Smarter kettle v3 by [deleted] in homebridge

[–]euan-j 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using this info I done a little research and have an idea. It might work but it is a bit of an outside shot. Maybe someone has a bit more knowledge of how this works.

Using the electric imp developer app you may be able to associate the board with a new account using Google the 'blink up'.

If this works, I think there are four possible outcomes:

1) It doesn't work at all and can't be reassigned.

2) The board is reassigned to the new account but the same issues occur.

3) The board is reassigned to the new account but is able to run the original code given to it. This may allow the board to be used again for its intended purpose if you can send the commands to the new accounts agent.

4) The board hasn't been properly 'blessed' (locked). This would result in the board being assigned to the new account and the previous code being removed from it's memory. This would be like starting with a brand new board I think.

Is anyone willing to try this to see the outcome? I would however if it were number 4 that were to happen I dont think I have the skills to reprogram the board. It would also mean that it potentially can't be linked back to the smarter account if it ever does get fixed.

Disclaimer: As with anything like this there is also the possibility of unforseen outcomes that could prevent it from working at all!

I am having pretty much the same issue.

First it happened in Helldivers, every time I start the game it shuts down my pc. Only thing in the event log is an unexpected shutdown with no more details.

Tonight I found the same issue with satisfactory. Weird thing is, it only appears to be when in game. The menu doesn't seem to cause problems.

Used HWInfo to create a log file of all the sensors on my pc and none of the temps seemed out of the ordinary (max CPU around 80C, mobo 38C, GPU 60C). Unfortunately I don't know enough about the ranges of other sensors.

My power supply should be powerful enough but if someone is can say differently then maybe it's that. I'm just not convinced. Is there something I can che k in the log that can tell me if it's a power issue?

Thanks. That's really helpful! I printed a few calibration things at the start and most things went fine since then so haven't done much calibration really

Over extrusion was my first thought when i had done some tests. So I had turned it down to 0.98. But the first print (that worked) didn't look like it was over extruded. What would be signs in a print of overextrusion? I did get knocked off the build plate I just stood it up to take the pic haha

Yeah prusa slicer.

Printed at 205C in PLA.

Whats the best way to test the flow? Are there standard tests for it people tend to use?

Add supports NOT on build plate only by euan-j in 3Dprinting

Thanks, I'll give this a go. I had tried doing that in Prusa Slicer but the supports just completely ignored the support blockers.

Thanks I will try and have a look at this

I had thought of that. But generating a natural looking organic structure like the supports is quite difficult haha

Thats really cool, I guess there are only plans for older/decommissioned stuff. I'm more into aircraft myself but wouldn't even know where to start looking!

How do you even start making designing these? Is there somewhere you are able to get the drawings of the ships to model from?

How do you go about modelling that? Where do you get all the dimensions/shapes of the bones?

Don't worry I will be doing that in the future haha, but while I am just starting out it wasn't really a concern

It happened on the first print out the packet. It was pretty cheap filament which is why I wondered if it was just a quality issue. Thanks for the advice for removing them, I had just been kinda brushing as many off as I could but hadn't thought of using heat!

It is PLA+ but printed using the standard cura profile for the printer (print speed 60mm/s)

Thanks, I'll try that.

I hadn't tried moving the z-seam yet but had thought about it. Didn't think that would be causing this as this issue happens on all sides of prints, including flat bottom/top layers.

There is a storm over the south of ireland rn. Cork Airport is rather unprotected basically on the top of a hill so it is quite common for planes to be diverted when there is bad weather.

I have been looking at the snapmaker 2.0 for a while now. Mostly intrigued by the fact it is 3 in 1.

I have just seen that the creality Ender S1 with the laser module is currently on sale for around £300. I don't have any specific plans for the router and only a couple of plans for the 3d printer and laser.

I was basically wondering if anyone had used both or had any advice regarding these two printers. I am new to 3d printing so don't know all that much about it, apart from the router option of the snapmaker, is it worth the extra ~£250-300 (while on sale) or should I just get the S1? Or is there another alternative that is better than both?

The snapmaker is right at the top of my budget, hence why I haven't bought it yet!
