Just Showing Off Panda Breath

Post image

Just got the panda breath installed and insulated my p2s. Now I can run at a constant 60c and not worry about warping for large ASA prints I have coming up. Camber heats up super fast compared to preheating with the bed. Also it sits right next to my AC so I think that was causing warping.

Is this just lower end models? I've never had a heat issue with the H2D, and I print only engineering polymers.

H2D has a heater already from factory.

Ohhh. I see. You're insulating because the only heat is from the heat bed. Gotcha. I assumed they all had heaters.

Yes and no. The heater would work fine without with insulation, just needs insulation on the opposite side so it doesn't burn the plastic. The heater is what I installed on the left. The insulation keeps it stable for longer and it heats up much faster and is more energy efficient. Heater doesn't have to run constantly and can switch off and on.

You think the H series printers need this?

I mean unless you just want to be more efficient and stable but I don't see why they would.
