No issues there for me, it would be going in my spare room next to a bloody tumble dryer 🤣

Some great info here, I love my F2 - it’s bloody amazing - I would just like a colour option, and it is a like - not need. I only do a few colour cases and for those I am still on water slide from my laser jet. I have mostly transitioned to black from the F2 on either bare metal or...

I am so tempted to hit on one. I have literally just bought an Xtool F2 laser engraver and it does a stellar job - I had no idea Eufy where bringing this 😢 The deal breaker for me is size. My work room is small and with the F2, 3d printer and a lot of other shit, I’m not sure where I would put it.

So, tried a J201 - Nope, Tried a 5457 - yep. It every now and then, glitches, is the best way to describe it, mostly if sliding up and down the low strings - really weird, you have to work quite hard to make it happen. It’s a bit like a synth or octave that isn’t quite tracking correctly...

Thanks my man - it’s past my tinkering time now but I will report back tomorrow.

I believe it was - and if nothing else, we can verify it unverifiedness !!!

So out of pig headed mess I have built another and socketed the drain resistor. Tried everything from 1k to 20k to no avail 😩

Hey all, I have just put together a pcb for the Zen Drive Black Magic. There is little resource available for it other than the attached schematic. Iv subed the ic for a 4558. Well - it farts, and it’s a bit of a shart in the decay of a note. It all starts well until the note dies off and then...

It’s pretty abrupt - like as instant as instant can be.

Further update for anyone interested 🤣 I am in conversation with Xvive to have some produced - they hit will be big, but will it be worth it.

I grabbed them from Huayi, they came from china to uk pretty quick also. How do you you feel they would do in the Compulator with the off resistance being so high ?

And that’s my dilemma, is it ok ??? They fly up quick to the Megs

Is that a hint of sarcasm Mr Robert …. Or …. Do you believe in your expert knowledge its ok ?

Update - they have arrived - light resistance is anywhere from 200 - 400 ohm, as soon as you take the power out they are up to 20m ohm in seconds. Do we think they are ‘NOT’ in spec 👀

So I think it was me that started the thread, heavens knows where it’s gone the legends @Chuck D. Bones and @Feral Feline added all the important stuff. I have actually just done a layout for it, probably sending it off for fab next week.

Just ordered a bunch of 10s, lets see what turns up - will probably be ext year !!!

Thanks man, really appreciate you chiming in !

So these are all over the eBay and Ali but the xvive ones don’t look like that at all ! Have you ever tested them ???

It’s for the Demeter Compulator. Where are you seeing them for $5 ??? I literally can’t find any ‘genuine’ ones anywhere.

So I know that this has previously been kicked about, but these things are all but gone I think. There is a seller in the UK but they want £20 each for them. Has anyone found a suitable alternative, opto coupler or LED and LDR combo. Thanks in advance.
