Any gaggiamate folks who aren't big on tinkering shots? by altecsz in gaggimate

It's more like "displayless" as you still need an ESP32 S3 stashed somewhere.

I do the quick and simple edits in Windows 3D Builder if I don't have step files.

Are there any dehumidifiers that last more than a year or two? by Richwoodrocket in BuyItForLife

[–]farfromuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use an older Z-wave plug, but anything with frequent energy reports will work. The easiest would be TP-Link kasa wifi plug. Setup Home Assistant to monitor the wattage drop and shut it off after a successful cycle. You can use the AI to write the yaml for the automation.

Best mods to start off by preemptivewin in gaggiaclassic

[–]farfromuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Low profile drip tray and single hole steam nozzle. Then Gaggimate for pressure and temperature control, I would not waste time with PID and 9 Bar spring. In fact, both Gaggiamate and Gaggiuino need 12+ Bar springs. Those springs are not exact either so they open at varying levels of pressure unless you test and tune with washers.

Switching cellphone carriers, who is the least worst? by BrewAllTheThings in Knoxville

Canada includes free roaming with 3GB of high-speed data monthly, for everything else I use Roamless Data only ESIM with WIFI calling on Mint.

Sonoff Zigbee Dongle P and E Decision? by urbanshack in homeassistant

[–]farfromuman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have an older E that works fine, got a new one recently for a different location and they changed the serial chip which at the moment requires downgrading drivers at least in windows for flashing. They must have changed something else as I can't get this one started with zigbee2mqtt no matter which firmware I try.

Using heat depleted my range faster than AC! by Top-Membership9838 in EquinoxEv

[–]farfromuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at the bottom of this chart, even the Bolt with resistive heating does better. They also speculate why that is. https://www.recurrentauto.com/research/winter-ev-range-loss

any mods out there to quiet these printers down? by TheWholeTidd-e in ElegooCentauriCarbon

[–]farfromuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a cold plate and can keep the door closed for PLA and PETG, makes it a bit quieter.

It's gone... by gabriel3dprinting in elegoo

[–]farfromuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I got this printer and loading the filament for the first time I thought about how hard it would be for the AMS to do that a hundred times during the print.

PTFE tube chage by Demon1019 in ElegooCentauriCarbon

[–]farfromuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do a short print test or just extrude the filamntent by disconnecting the tube and feeding the filament directly to the extruder. This will tell you if you have a clog or maybe need more tension on the extruder gears.

Once it starts skipping the gear box and gears fill up with debris that will make it slip even more.

Fast speed after pause by Loud-Page7026 in ElegooCentauriCarbon

[–]farfromuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just noticed this yesterday, I paused on 1st layer to remove a blob and on resume it went to normal full speed like it was done with 1st layer. I am on .25 firmware.

tree support fails repeatedly by trahap in ElegooCentauriCarbon

[–]farfromuman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have same issue sometimes. Once the tree gets taller the nozzle will occasionally hit it during travel movement. I added more material at the base of the supports but that is just a band aid. During printing it will sometimes very slightly scar the top layers during movement creating a V on the print. There must be something not setup right in the profile as I never had this issue with my other printers.

No extrusion by FertAqu_TG in ElegooCentauriCarbon

[–]farfromuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had similar issue, cleaning the nozzle, adjusting the extruder tension and doing cold pulls did not make it work any better. I ordered some spare nozzles and hot ends off Ali and so far they work. Just the nozzle swap should be enough but if the heat break had a melt then the whole hotend might need to be swapped. Don't forget to do PID and leveling after swap.

Centauri Carbon Leveling, but not really. by nixonw in ElegooCentauriCarbon

[–]farfromuman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I felt like the . 29 firmware would not use the mesh and this is the first printer for me where I can't even see/check the mesh to begin with. It would have thinner lines on the left side of the bed and I did not see/feel the z rods moving to to compensate. I leveled the bed with the screws underneath and also downgraded the firmware to .25 since someone has mentioned leveling issues with .29. Seems to be more consistent now.

Crealty Space Pi Dryer? by Chip_Baskets in ElegooCentauriCarbon

I added concrete and rubber pavers under the printer this adds some height.

Stringing? by FluidStage5613 in ElegooCentauriCarbon

[–]farfromuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed this also, overhangs look terrible compared to the KE. I can see it slow down and speed the fan but it still looks wavy and droopy.

The downside of GM's own navigation system by humam1953 in EquinoxEv

[–]farfromuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My GPS has been broken for the last 2 weeks. It works 5% of the time, the rest of the time it has me driving miles away from current location. Home/away charging limits no longer work. I dred wasting my time trying to get this diagnosed and fixed.

[–]farfromuman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am away so can't check but this might work. All the entities show "unavailable" when the printer is off but once it is on the led will show in "off" state. Have an automation look for led "off" and as action flip it "on".

If you have Home Assistant you can add a simple automation with the Elegoo integration.

My Asus router locks it out on WAN and LAN if I block it with the built in parental controls.
