Any thoughts on what the hotend might be running at? believe i heard 40 watts some where before?

Thanks, trying to set up the "Printer Stats" plugin on octoprint to help gauge power usage. Not sure how useful it will be unless it can somehow detect the usage itself

Anyone know the typical/average wattage of the M2 heated bed, hotend, stepper motors and the fans each individually?

I had my 1/8" PEI sheet laminated to the bed and I had such a horribly uneven surface that I just flipped the glass over and forgot about it. One day I got bored and removed the sheet and instead of throwing it out I got bigger clips, gave the surface a good wet-sanding with 1000 grit and gave it a...

Ive not tried PEI at all just been doing my research and havent found anyone thats used over 1/8 sheets.. I noticed there is Ultem 2100- 2400 which is fiberglass reinforced PEI sheets in varying percentages that sound promising to prevent warping but i cannot find it sold anywhere with out emailing ...

Are the rubber pads still apart of this "simplified" bed leveling? I hated those for the longest time until I chipped the corners off the glass and made new corner pieces to only hold down the heat plate. If I couldnt get the bed leveled with the 3 screws I figured out I could simply loosen/squeeze ...

Sounds like there is an issue of getting good ...
