It doesn't need to be super warm, but it needs to be within their temperature range of 15°C to 35°C (59°F - 95°F) and relative humidity range of 20-85%.

Yes, that was something that I played with a bit a couple weeks ago. The cleaning cartridge also holds the waste ink that comes out of the cleaning process, which means it's possible for the waste ink reservoir to fill up even when nothing is being used. My waste ink was full after about 3...

Refunds are available to the Importer of Record that actually paid (or facilitated the payment) to CBP. If you're getting something with tariffs prepaid, you are not the Importer of Record. I'm out about $5k from JLC shipments alone, I haven't bothered to add up my Tayda tariffs.

Yeah part of what usually sucks about UV printers is maintenance, one of the big selling points for me was the self-maintenance. I printed really heavy like two days a month with my old machine, and that meant once a month I was purging the lines and printhead to clean out the hardened ink and...

Nope, that is one thing is there isn't much torque vibration. The print is reasonably slow, but even my older faster UV printer didn't move much because it's just inkjet printing, nothing is touching the material surface, so torque from the gantry doesn't transfer to the bed. It's audible, but...

I'd have to measure it when I get home, but that sounds about right, it's a big boy. Also if you're using the full size bed you'll need to have a bunch of clearance on both sides, so it ends up taking a substantial amount of space. If you're just doing one pedal at a time you can probably get...

Yeah size is a thing, especially if you're using the full-size bed and not just the compact bed. It's also a lot fussier than some other machines, so placement is a thing. My laser (settled for the F1 ultra) and CNC can happily run in the garage, and my 3D printers live in the workshop right...

Yup. My 7 year-old is my hardest worker, she usually prefers to be paid in candy.

Your diagram is incredibly hard to follow, but a couple things jumping out: you have a 1k from input to ground, that along with your 10k series resistor is going to strangle your signal quite a bit right off the bat before you even hit the switch you have redundant connections from your input...

Yeah speed was one of the big complaints from people that have actually printed before. The print quality is excellent, the machine is very user-friendly, but compared to any other UV printer out there it's slow as hell. It's probably the only machine I have that I don't sit and watch because...

It's actually a little slower than my old A4 UV printer, speed is not one of its strong suits. I would say the best speed you'll get is by lining them up close together and printing as many in a row as possible. Adding more printing in the X direction doesn't actually add much time because the...

I read in the news today that CBP opened up the customer portal to get in and apply for tariff refunds, so naturally I was excited because just from JLC I paid a total of about $4700 in IEEPA tariffs. The portal is open to direct importers, not consumers at large, so you have to be the one that...

That's fine for one-offs, but in bulk builds it really is nice to have pre-measured wires, especially if you can get them pre-stripped. I mostly have switched over to ribbons for everything, but I have a couple designs that I have to use wire for, so I really just need a bunch of the same length...

Thanks for the heads up, stuff like this comes up every now and then. I really need to set aside some time to just go through all of my BOMs one by one and 1) make sure all the parts that should be there are, 2) make sure there are no parts there that shouldn't be and 3) make sure all the links...

I would be in for some red vein, that's one tayda doesn't offer that I wish they did.

So I'll start by saying that Robert (PedalPCB) does not control the postal service, and once it's dropped off he has no way of affecting the speed of delivery. I will also say that USPS first class international is always slow, but it is also cheap, so comparing it to DHL shipping is not a fair...

I have a mostly functional build doc for Solaris, just missing drill template (I think it's the same as Lab Rat without the toggle switch) and the detailed build instructions (same build process as Lab Rat, nothing weird). I'll get that one out soon.

Tassie is correct (which is to be expected, I think he's built everything I make at this point).

And it can do that pretty well, but ask it to draw you a schematic and it will give you garbage.

Based on my experience, that's par for the course for AI tools. I've seen some AI tools give accurate technical explanations of circuits, but I've never seen an AI-generated schematic that is anywhere near coherent.
