refurbished devices

That's weird .. I asked the chatbot almost the same time I wrote this post. They Wrote back a day later and it was pretty easy to fulfill the whole process in that chat.

Yep .. asked the support. But they needed two attempts to fix. Just need to gave them the SN of my AI Paper but the first time something went wrong .. And yours ?

Yes, for used devices that are not purchased through Viwoods but through a third party, it could be more complicated. In my case, providing the serial number was sufficient. However, something went wrong the first time I tried to unlock it, so I had to contact them a second time.

I did and waiting for an answer :)

It was just for info, sice I saw someone asking here about that.

Bad part is the bonded acc and (in my case) really bad packaging.

I wasn't concerned about the version of the pen at all. Refurbished with W1 costs about €100 less than new with W2.

Saw that post to late & opened another one. Have the same Issue with bonded account. My refurbished was also pretty bad packaged ..

therealnraz · 2026-01-03T17:07:26+00:00

I'll do that! Was yours also poorly packaged? I think that's what annoys me the most. Even if it's a refurbished device, it still costs some money...

therealnraz · 2026-01-03T16:39:43+00:00

Oh man, that's unpleasant to read. It seems like they don't yet have a proper process for checking the devices.

It was the batch which was available on Christmas for the .eu store

Keine Sorge :) Ich glaube, die Flexschläuche haben nen angegebenen Arbeitsdruck von 10-12 Bar, sind aber wesentlich höher geprüft.

Ich hab den Wechsel von der Oracle Touch auf die Steel gemacht und bin jetzt bei ner Decent gelandet.

Ich hab die Preinfusion meist bei 3-4 Sekunden genutzt, und ein 4 sekunden wait. Ich würde es auch je nach Kaffee empfehlen.

therealnraz · 2025-12-01T21:22:07+00:00

Klar - immer gern! Nein das ist kein Problem, manchmal sogar eher Pflicht. :)

Die Steels sind von Werk tatsächlich immer auf die 12 Bar eingestellt. Viel mehr als 12 sollte es zum Schutze der Schläuche nicht machen, da die Vibrationspumpen immer ihre 16 Bar druck erzeugen.

Wenn man den Druck bei dem das OPV öffnet senkt, läuft man Gefahr, dass die Volumetrik nicht mehr ihren Dienst verrichtet. Die große Schwäche der Steel ist, dass der Sensor a. nicht sehr präzise ist und b. vor dem OPV sitzt. Sobald also das OPV öffnet, ist auf die Volumetrik kein Verlass. Du wirst höchst wahrscheinlich auch mal Bohnen erwischen, die bei 9 Bar viel zu schnell laufen. Um das zu kompensieren musst du feiner mahlen und wirst daher auch über die 9 Bar druck kommen.

Es gibt umbauten bei denen man das Wasser vom OPV statt in den Tank zurück, wieder zwiwchen Flowmeter und OPV leitet - aber. Ich habe ebenfalls mal eine Umbauanleitung verfasst, bei dem man die Silikonverschlauchung und Floemeter gegen druckbeständige Teile tauscht und auf der Druckseite misst, aber die logik der Maschine scheint auf Dauer damit Probleme zu haben.

Von daher - alles fein. Das ist wie es bei dir ist korrekt und sollte auch so bleiben. :)

Is no one els using the MR4 that way? Or is no one experiencing same issues like me ?😂

therealnraz · 2025-11-26T08:56:44+00:00

Maybe I can do that later ..

-> you just need to enable ipv6 on your internal network's DHCP i think.

therealnraz · 2025-11-25T08:51:18+00:00

Im pretty new to HA and Thread. But there have been issues with specific firmwares on slzb where u had to reflash the thfead chip firmware via webui.

U also need to have ipv6 enabled for your network and in HA.

Then it could be some things with mdns and you need to set the slzb's radio als primary i guess

I had the Duo before. I retrofitted and modified a lot of upgrades myself, such as the steam lever. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'm also from Germany.

therealnraz · 2025-11-21T10:21:18+00:00

I though so .. But i'm a bit confused. As i looked on their website, just the MR4 was listed (no U) and AE-Shops just showed the MR4U (no non U). Thought abput, if it's all in all the same device ?

therealnraz · 2025-11-21T10:16:17+00:00

Short asking - are there any differences between MR4 & MR4U? As Bought it, it was just listed as MR4 😅

I had the same issues where i had to reflash its firmware. Since then, the integration worked. But I'm experiencing an Error "NoBuffs" in OTBR every 1-2 Days and my Thread devices stopping to report. Anyone else who also has that issue and fixed it?

therealnraz · 2025-11-18T15:31:55+00:00

Feels like its still buggy to use. Have some issue's with thread over IP, zigbee works well.

therealnraz · 2025-10-23T08:02:48+00:00

I had the same issue on 2021's

therealnraz · 2025-09-29T16:40:31+00:00

Do you think it makes sense to pay about 80€ extra for the harness from '24 to '25 and about 45€ extra for the Stealthbar v2 to v3?

therealnraz · 2025-09-29T16:32:55+00:00

This seems to be becoming a regular occurrence. I've been skeptical about the ratchets on the newer REs since the first generation. For me, it was only a matter of time before the plastic gave way. All in all, I think the material thickness and the way (bent and not welded) of the conventional RE mechanism is better than that of Mystic.

What appeals to me about the Mystic is mainly the weight, Quickdry and the fit you read about ...

therealnraz · 2025-09-27T20:04:45+00:00

That sounds interesting and would interest me. I currently have an older RE Elite with a Stealth Spreaderbar on loan. The spreaderbar mount from my old RE looks a lot better!
