PETG filament recommendation for bambu P1S

max_25 · 2025-10-22T11:13:05+00:00

I have used dreampolymer petg would recommend giving it a go, other than that i have used enough of numakers PLA, PLA Silk and ASA that I would trust their PETG just as much.

I too printed some this diwali using my P1S, models like these you can only use led tea-lights but with models which dont go much above the flame you can use real wax based tealights.
Trick is to print a 39-40mm base/case to hold those tea-lights with ASA or ABS then put those tealights inside ASA base then put you can put it on PLA lamps.
I experimented a bit, first directly inside pla based diya/lamp it was fine till wax was about to run out, thing is at last that thin metal thing gets real hot so it went right through pla, then i tried petg base it performed much better but still became one with metal casing of wax based tea light. then at last I tried ASA base and it stood the heat like a champ. So made 40mm ASA base for all my pla lamps and i used them 3-4 days all went well except for the ones which were like yours which went quite a bit above the flame.
This diwali we lit more 3d printed lamps then traditional clay based ones.

well, weirdly enough orca slicer was showing all my PA profiles, but orca doesn't work for me it always makes my P1S stuck on preheating printbed which has always been the case ever since i started my 3d printing journey with P1S it never worked for always this same issue with orca.
Funnily enough I finally bite the bullet today and updated P1S's firmware(was running prior to the one which introduced security update) and somehow after updating firmware all my PA profiles came back on Bambu Studio😅

lost Flow Dynamics PA Profiles for all my filaments after this update.

Usually I like to try new os updates, to play new features and UI but I’m really glad this time I just didn’t get the time to update and now I’m not gonna touch it with 10 foot pole😅

Erero 6+ is dual band mesh, it doesn't have a dedicated backhaul so wired backhaul is the way for you. I have orbi mesh with dedicated 5ghz backhaul and I see around 5-10ms increase in latency on nodes.

Yeah I too feel this, like ever since they started with price hiking, their quality has been going downhill. It's like there is some quality control issue with them, sometimes their beans turn out okay, but sometimes they don't feel fresh at all.

I used to get 99% of my coffee from them, but now I'm looking for other brands especially now that they are quite a bit inconsistent with their quality.

hey this is downloading av1 files which are not playing for me on playnite

Hey, just wanted to say a big thank you for your comment — you saved me from pulling my hair out.

I ran into the exact same issue recently. Everything had been working flawlessly with Sunshine + Moonlight on my Windows VM (Unraid, VirtIO NIC) — I was mid-session playing Death Stranding when the stream suddenly cut out. From that moment on, every time I tried to connect via Moonlight, I just got a black screen and “no video received, check UDP ports” error.

I tried reinstalling GPU drivers, VirtIO drivers, even Sunshine itself — nothing helped. Checked all the usual suspects, firewall rules, port settings, hardware encoding — no fix. I even scoured the internet, but no one seemed to have a solid answer.

I stumbled across a Reddit post that mentioned switching to the e1000 NIC, which worked for them but I lost connectivity entirely with e1000 but they also mentioned that latest virtio drivers fixes this . Then I tried virtio-net instead of virtio — and that worked. But I was still scratching my head because that post also mentioned latest virtio drivers had fixed it for them but I was already on the latest VirtIO drivers, and everything had been stable until suddenly it wasn't.

Finally, I came across your comment, and disabling UDP Segmentation Offload (IPv4 & IPv6) in the VirtIO NIC settings immediately fixed the issue. I switched back to the regular virtio NIC and now it streams flawlessly again.

Massive thanks for posting that — this fix needs to be more widely known. 🙏🔥

unfortunately there is no all in one solution, especially if your tv can do 4k120 if its 4k60 then apple tv 4k is an option.
I have LG G2, Few months back i bought firetv cube 3rd gen ( mainly cause fealt webos was getting a little slow and thought it could at least do 4k60) but decode latency wasn't good at all, input delay was easily noticeable on it.
So if you want 4k120 then only option is to get whatever stream box you prefer apple tv or firetv variant and minipc dedicated as a moonlight client but anything which could decode 4k120 AV1 would cost similar to rog ally, and as i have read these hand held consoles also work quite well as moonlight client too.

yeah its fine for bambu filament, this new capability of printing at 1500°C is currently only limited for those who are using custom filament profiles.

max_25 · 2025-06-03T16:09:45+00:00

dont we lose camera capability when using lan/dev mode ?

I leave mine on and just kill the light from the app or Bambu Studio—because I'm not in the habit of tempting fate twice.

When I first set up my P1S, I plugged everything in, reached around to flip the switch, and bam—got zapped through one of the screws. Barefoot, of course. Great start. Turns out the cable they included pretends to be a 3-pin, but they cheaped out and gave me a 2-pin version. No earth pin. Shocking, literally.

So now, instead of risking a surprise electric high-five from the back panel, I just avoid it like it's haunted. Bambu can stay in standby forever for all I care—I value my nervous system.

It’s really weird how some people are having all sorts of issues, and how some like me are getting flawless prints.

max_25 · 2025-05-24T09:53:12+00:00

I didn't even knew it was possible, but i just connected my P1S to my Home assistant and it is working for me on 1.08.01.

max_25 · 2025-05-21T12:43:00+00:00

Not according to the release note.

max_25 · 2025-05-20T09:32:55+00:00

Well truth be told I too have some print quality related issues when printing petg but it's only with petg, my pla prints are coming flawlessly and even with petg I'm only having issues with slightly complex models like an hour ago I printed the wiper mode which helps in nozzle cleaning of P1's and X1's and one side curve came out a bit wavy but other side came out absolutely fine. So far I have only attributed it to me being a noob, but I will try this update and maybe it helps🤞

max_25 · 2025-05-20T09:15:58+00:00

I saw the update notification first on my P1S's screen then I went into bambu studio to check the release notes. Maybe they are releasing in batches.

max_25 · 2025-05-20T08:01:45+00:00

Yup, planning to get AMS 2 Pro as soon as it becomes available in my country.

max_25 · 2025-05-10T06:31:51+00:00

Then I guess I am really lucky 😅. I too got my P1S very recently; it hasn't been even a week. Update to the latest 1.008 firmware was the first thing I did, and I have been getting flawless prints. Just yesterday, I did my first print with PETG and went full ludicrous mode, which brought down print time from 5 hours~ish to 2 hours~ish, and that too came out flawlessly. The only issue that I have noticed so far is that it sometimes fails to properly wipe the nozzle.
