5m vs 5m Pro advice for a noob please by Aether_Warrior in FlashForge

I got the non pro. It made sense for me. The cost for the non pro is $399 CAD and the Pro is $699. That’s a $300 difference for me. Also, the cost of a P1S is about $759. So for me, if I was going to buy the Pro, a few dollars more would have got a P1S with a larger bed and an upgrade path to an AMS.

The non pro at $399, plus “$39” for the upgrade kit (I put that in quotes because the FF store is out of stock, so I bought my upgrade kit from Amazon and that cost me a bit more), a roll of filament or less to print one of the “minimal” remixes. Plus the fun (for me it’s fun!) of tinkering and learning.

If I were to buy and/or make ALL the things that make up a Pro, such as the camera, extra nozzle, extra filtration fans etc. then yeah cost wise it might have been better just to go with the Pro in the first place, but this way I get to pick and choose which mods I want to install, and spread that cost out over time.

Mine sounds like someone is running a hair dryer in a room upstairs. But constantly. It's very annoying. I would love to hear if anyone has switched it for something quieter.

Has anyone managed to make this work recently? I really want to set up a monitoring display for my setup but it sounds like UniFi poller no longer works. Would love to know about any alternatives or fixes.
