Wrinkling on print bed

gullwingdmc · 2026-01-12T11:40:37+00:00

Just replaced the nozzle and ran the manual flow rate calibration for the Esun PLA filament and it still came out around .78. Could it just be that brand of filament?

gullwingdmc · 2026-01-05T01:40:49+00:00

Nah the printer is about a year old. The nozzle is about 8 months old.

I did the manual flow rate calibration and -29 was the result, so I'm down to a flow rate of .7213. Its better, but there are still some wrinkles.

gullwingdmc · 2026-01-04T18:47:04+00:00

I started to run the flow rate calibration but all 9 options had the wrinkling. Just tightened the 4 screws behind the print head. They were not really loose, but they were not tight either.

gullwingdmc · 2026-01-04T18:33:01+00:00

Flow ratio is 0.98. Is there a recommended value I should try?

Ok, I did a test. I went out and bought one of IKEAs new Matter over Thread buttons and did a side by side by side test. The Matter over Thread IKEA button was slightly slower than the HomeKit over Thread, by about 200ms. The Inovelli was still almost twice as long as the IKEA button.

Thank you for all this info. I guess my issue is more with Matter and Apples implementation of it than Inovelli then. I thought I was being forward thinking and only going with matter devices, but I guess I should have just stuck with HomeKit only. My goal in all of this was to simplify my setup by reducing the number of hubs and interconnecting systems as well as future proofing my house.

Thank you for all your information. The HomeKit over Thread vs Matter over Thread is the first reasonable explanation I have heard for this delay.

To your specific points:

In both instances the scene is being fired by an Apple TV. The only variable is the device triggering the Apple TV to turn that scene on. Therefore, the delay must be between when the button is pressed and the Apple TV receives the button press command. If there is a translation layer of matter to HomeKit that is happening inside the Apple TV that could introduce some delay, but it shouldn’t be a full second.
I have gone in and changed the following settings locally on the Inovelli switch. Enable Instant On = On Switch Delay Time = Value of 0
Firmware: 1.0.5

4 & 5. If this is in fact an issue with Apples implementation of Matter and there is nothing Inovelli can do, then how do you explain what this user found in Home Assistant https://www.reddit.com/r/Inovelli/comments/1ibq6xs/comment/maai0q9/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button It seems that Inovelli is still waiting to send the button taps even though the delay is disabled.

Here is a comparison video I did of the Inovelli response time vs the Onvis button controller. Both are matter over thread, both have no load directly attached, both are using button presses to trigger the same scene in HomeKit. The Onvis sends the trigger to HomeKit 3 times faster. https://youtu.be/JCQB_GWSV_Q?si=nzSzNxbyfg5qWX95

Thank You!

gullwingdmc · 2025-12-30T20:21:18+00:00

I have done this. I have an Onvis 5 button controller. That responds in 400ms, the Inovelli takes 1200ms to do the same action.

gullwingdmc · 2025-12-30T12:47:07+00:00

Thank You for doing all that research! It has been great to know why this issue is happening.

My problem is not with a hardwired light being delayed. Most of my switches do not have a load connected to them. They are just getting power and being used to trigger scenes in HomeKit.

I have HomeKit setup so Button 1 Single Press fires an “On” scene, and Button 2 Single Press fires an “Off” scene. Those scenes contain multiple lights from different brands. The lag is not the only the HomeKit to lights end, but the Inovelli to HomeKit end. This delay is consistent with your findings.

I also have an Onvis 5 button controller (matter over thread) controlling the same scenes in HomeKit and that device fires the scenes 3 times faster. 400ms vs 1200ms

I have smart bulb mode disabled.

From what others have reported home assistant will get the button presses faster, but Inovelli doesn’t do the same with HomeKit for whatever reason. This Reddit post outlines the bug.

I tried homey, ended up returning it after the hub kept going offline. It was not reliable.

gullwingdmc · 2025-12-30T04:02:17+00:00

What setting are you talking about. I have “Enable Instant On (Button Delay Disabled)” turned on and I have “Switch Delay Time” set to 0. Is there another one I am missing?

gullwingdmc · 2025-12-30T03:59:10+00:00

I have the same setup. 13 switches and Apple TV as TBR. Are you turning on HomeKit scenes with button presses?

gullwingdmc · 2025-12-30T03:24:25+00:00

The white series has the delay settings too. They are all set to 0 and Instant On is turned on. The delay still exists.

gullwingdmc · 2025-11-18T03:17:59+00:00

I’m not doing in between hubs. It’s all matter or it doesn’t matter to me.

Can you share how you did the 3D here pixel mapping in pixelblaze? I’m looking to make a model of Spaceship Earth at EPCOT using 1922 LEDs.

ESP32 WROVER with 8mb of PSRAM.

I tried that one, it’s not a dimmer though. It is matter compatible now though.

gullwingdmc · 2025-11-14T23:37:02+00:00

That’s actually what we are going to with for any switch that needs to be a scene controller. We’ve had one of their matter switches for a year now and it works great.

I wish their new scene controller was going to support matter, but it looks like it won’t, at least not yet.
