Ugh I didn't even think about that, the data collecting. After some research I think I should be able to mitigate that with lan only mode or just some firewall rules or pihole blocking. Thank you for the link!
I was looking at the sunlu s1 and s2 for a filament dryer. The s2 sounds kinda glitchy but functional, and the biggest complaint of the s1 seems to be the 55C max temp.
If my humidity is usually 20% or lower where I live is it likely I can just skip a filament dryer for now?
Yeah, you probably can since it appears you live in the desert. It's not like the filament is going to magic up water that's not there.
I'm somewhere that is more like 40%, and I don't have the endless wet-filament-problems some people have but I'm also printing just PLA and PETG which aren't really the filaments most impacted by a little bit of wet.
Awesome, thank you for the insight!
Some filament brands are more sensitive to moisture than others for example devil design PETG took 6 months to moisten ,but prusament did it in like two weeks.
I think I heared that lan-only mode means you need to transfer the files to print via SD card.
Yeah I'm fine with copying prints via sd card, and that's what I'm doing for the moment. A1 mini came very fast and I just did the tug boat classic first print
Nice. Have fun with it!
I'm already half a dozen prints in and loving it 😁
