[WARNING/Privacy] Elegoo Mars 5 Ultra uploaded over 11 GB of data while IDLE! (Always-on Camera Streaming?)
Hi everyone, I recently noticed suspicious network activity on my home network and traced it back to my Elegoo Mars 5 Ultra. I didn't print anything last 5-6 days, printer just waiting idle. The printer is constantly consuming about 1.0 - 1.2 Mbit/s of upload bandwidth. To verify this, I isolated th

Beginner getting into 3D printing – is a used Formlabs Form 2 for $200 worth it?
For filament printers you can also check out the Anycubic Kobra 3 v2 combo. 4 color printing, and active drying. It's about $330 U.S. right now. Print quality, speed and bed size are all comparable to the Bambu A1. For resin, you can buy a brand new Elegoo Mars 5 for under $200! Just don't forget th

What 3D printers would you guys recommend?
I still use an old Elegoo Mars Pro but you probably want to look at either their newer models (Mars 5 I believe) or their Saturn if you want to do larger prints. For FDM the Bambulab A1 seems to be pretty popular right now.

Mars 4 Vs Mars 5
I recommend the mars 4 ultra, but to change the fep for the mars 4 non ultra out of the box. The mars 4 ultra comes with ACF film which is cloudy and can reduce print sharpness. The mars non ultra 4 has a clear fep. Very easy to change. Or just live with the cfa film, its less sharp but not by a mas

What eldritch horror did I just print?
I actually used it for years and now the only thing I did was turning the high definition AA off. AA - constrast blur never did that to me. I use an elegoo mars 5 ultra. Could the hd AA off be for something?

Recommended 3D Printers
I got an Elegoo Mars 5 Ultra as my first (and only) printer and have used it to print my New Antioch and Court minis, as well as a ton of terrain pieces and a dragon for the dragon hunt scenario. It’s been a great experience. This printer is very beginner friendly

Printing minis? (GW HERESY)
Do you mean recommendations for a printer? If so, I love my Elegoo Mars 5 Ultra, it’s like US$270ish on their website. But I use it on top of buying official stuff too…. Supporting GW while still supplementing my minis.
