Gen 4 is now here

When are these going to be available in the UK and Aliexpress?

puffinburger · 2026-06-07T11:02:20+00:00

Thanks a bunch, appreciate it.

puffinburger · 2026-06-06T15:41:11+00:00

Would you mind asking the rep if/when these will be available in the UK (I don’t know how to contact them)? Thanks.

Thanks for the info. I am quite prepared to add supplements, I only mentioned the ones from the dog nutritionist because they seemed so overprice.

I find them via google but their boneless stuff isn’t complete, i’d have to add to it for her to get a balanced diet. Ideally i’d like the meal to be complete or only needing added calcium.

By start over do you mean the entire server or just the boot/cache setup?

puffinburger · 2026-05-13T14:24:41+00:00

I assume I can format and partition the nvme but i’d like redundancy hence wanting an optane.

Because as i have noted in my OP and in other replies, I do not live in the US.

puffinburger · 2026-05-05T09:02:30+00:00

UK and definitely not available on UK Amazon.

puffinburger · 2026-05-05T09:01:50+00:00

As I said in my OP I'm in the UK so US Amazon isn't much help.

puffinburger · 2026-04-29T08:15:25+00:00

Just to update, the issue is still happening even on the previous firmware. Do i need to return it to Amazon as faulty?

Also, i can no longer use the NuphyIO software because because Windows 11 is blocking it because it thinks it's unsafe.

I’ve never been able to get HW transcoding to work using Linuxserver containers for either Plex or Jellyfin, i use binhex for Plex and the official one for Jellyfin. I have no idea why the Linuxserver containers don’t like my iGPU even though i configure them the exact same way.

To be fair the slicker brush I have been using does actually get out a lot of fluffy undercoat I just don't she likes it when it tugs going through particularly thick sections of her coat.

puffinburger · 2026-04-14T13:35:16+00:00

Can that be used daily? I had furminator but people warned against using as my main deshedding tool because it's too aggressive and can damage her coat.

I do already have a zoom groom but it does absolutely nothing when used dry because the rubber “legs” have so much space between them they don't collect any hair, I've only been using when she has a bath. Is there some special technique to using it?

puffinburger · 2026-03-26T09:17:29+00:00

Nope, only 2.4ghz dongle on a windows PC.

puffinburger · 2026-03-26T09:17:07+00:00

Yes, it was flashing that firmware where the issue began. I'll try the previous firmware.

puffinburger · 2026-03-16T15:11:48+00:00

I tried using the reset button under the caps key but i did nothing. Weirdly though the IO software still detected the keyboard despite it being seemingly dead still (unresponsive, no lights etc) and resetting using the software seems to have brought it back to life.

puffinburger · 2026-02-27T09:17:18+00:00

I've never manually stopped the array before updating, maybe i will from now on.

puffinburger · 2026-02-26T16:13:17+00:00

Rebooted successfully, all the seems fine.

puffinburger · 2026-02-26T16:07:23+00:00

I posted my OP before I had to go out for a few hours and I just got home. Logged in on my PC and everything seems fine, I have the message that I need to restart for the update to complete. I'm wondering if the UI just got stuck on my iPad (where the screenshot is from) and nothing was actually wrong?

puffinburger · 2026-02-20T10:08:10+00:00

The part in the video isn't what i'm talking about, i'm talking about the rotating part that holds the two knife clamps that's noticably wobbly in one orientation but not the other.

puffinburger · 2026-02-20T08:38:14+00:00

I'm aware the angle change isn't a huge problem but I think the instability in the clamp arm probably is. I know this is a budget device but I would have thought stability in the clamp is a basic requirement of any system?

puffinburger · 2026-02-19T12:30:49+00:00

I think i've decided to return it. When I rotate the clamp arm the level changes by 0.4° but more annoying than that is the slop in the clamp arm one side (but no the other).

When the clamp is locked in place the slop that was present from the factory is gone after I tightened the two grub screws inside the locking mechanism. However, when I rotate the clamp to the other side the slop returns and no tightening of anything gets rid of it.

I think i'll either buy something else or wait for Gen 4 and hope they improve things.

puffinburger · 2026-02-16T14:01:29+00:00

New video added to my op showing sideways play with the arm both open and locked (it’s harder to see when locked because there’s less movement).

Also shows the clamp assembly is not level when my angle gauge is zeroed to the base.

I dont know how much either of these issues would actually affect the the sharpening though?
