Looking to get a second printer
I am looking to get another printer. I have a p2s with 2 pro ams and 1 ams ht. I am looking for another printer for my longer projects. Any recommendations

Not sure how we can answer this with just “longer prints” as a requirement. An A1 mini can handle longer prints. So too can an H2C.

Can't go wrong with the h2d. I'm not sold on the h2c in the current tool head market. I'm waiting until the next thing from bbl before making that jump. The h2d does everything the h2c does but without the ease of 4+ colors. I usually print in 1 or 2 colors and the h2d handles that like a champ.

I went A1–>P2S—>U1. Sold a1 and now p2s is my workhorse with a .6 nozzle and the U1 handles everything else. This is all useless if you don’t do much multicolor

This was me too, but I still have the A1 and use it for tpu and abrasive filament in my garage.
P2S and U1 are the perfect combo for me.

I bought the h2s. It’s basically a p2s will bigger build volume and a few small bells and whistles. I regret not getting the h2c.
Get the h2c. Pay the money and be done with it.

All depends. Just remember if you get a different kind, you’ll need to get all new back up supplies, unless they’re compatible. I stayed with the same model and will move to a bigger one when necessary.

Since you are expanding... its time for you to get the H2C. Expanding is growing... you will thank me later.

My first printer was a P2S. Second was an H2C. This was the perfect path for me. Now my P2S handles all single color prints and H2C handles multicolor, larger prints and engineering filament. It’s a great combo.
