L-Cheapo

Post by MigCha » Sun Jul 05, 2015 12:57 am

Hi Guys,

My name is Miguel Chaparro and i have a M2 and recently i have purchased a L-Cheapo, but i made a mistake and don't check out output voltaje of the extruder (V3A) before of buy, and L-Cheapo works at 24V.... So my question is:
What i can do? Any suggestions?

Bye.

I'd start by contacting the L-Cheapo guys and seeing if it'll run at 19v.

I'd then use the 19v supply to switch the ground on a 24v supply if it won't run on 19v.

Problem solved!,

L-Cheapo works on voltages from 10V to 24V.

How do you plan on preventing damage to parts of the machine under what your cutting while using the l-cheapo... i definitely looks like an interesting thing to try.. but i am curious what you use under whatever your cutting.
