[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.

Beginner getting into 3D printing – is a used Formlabs Form 2 for $200 worth it?

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.

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.
