Description
Enclosed are models with and without the hour meter. I recommend an hour meter unless your printer already tracks hours.
Wire it to the fan that is only on when the LCD is on. PLA may be too soft when warm so use PETG, ABS, or print in resin.
Designed for EPAX, Phrozen Transform and original Photon, but also works on other printers with metal enclosures such as the Shuffle. For plastic printers like the Photon-S or Zortrax Inkspire, just stand up in the corner. Also there is a Moai version with magnets on just the bottom - useful for any printer with steel base.
Does not need support to print if you print it on its face.
Heater (100 watt recommended but you can use the 150 and just don't use both black wires)): https://www.ebay.com/itm/12-24V-PTC-Cars-Fan-Air-Heater-Constant-Temperature-Heating-Element-Heaters/172773930677 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07F3PBX7J
