    3d Printers South Africa

    I got my Ender 3 V3 SE last night. Was up and printing in 30 minutes. First time I have ever touched a 3d printer. I think the auto leveling is the key to success.

    Will the Ryobi RG-2600i be able to charge my Mecer 2400VA Inverter?

    I've just tested my Mecer 1200va with this exact generator and it works perfectly. The battery started charging after about 20 seconds. I don't think the rg-2600i has evo throttle.

    I can do with the pci-e mini one or maybe both if the price is right. [emoji1787]

    I used a Pi3B with a SSD for about 3 years. Worked perfectly. Just struggled to add video streams.

    Where to take an Epson printer to be serviced or checked?

    Totally agree. I encourage the kids to print as often as possible. The ink is cheap and last for ages.

    Try cleaning the print head and flushing the ink before you send it in. The heads get clogged up if you don't use it often enough. You'll find the option under printer properties, general, maintenance.. You may have to do it a few times before it works. It still an issue try flushing the ink...

    Logitech MK235

    Brilliant idea. You can look on thingaverse and 3d print a replacement as well.

    Starting out with Sonoff

    The sonoff touch switches works like normal light switches when wifi / Internet not available. Not sure about the minis. Have an idea they might work as well.

    Sonoff or Eachen / Ewelink or Tuya

    I see aqara has a few that doesn't need neutral, but they are kak expensive.

    Sonoff or Eachen / Ewelink or Tuya

    I went the sonoff touch way for multi gang switches. The touch switches are not to everybody's liking, but flashed with tasmota they work well with HA. For single lights I threw a Sonoff mini in the box behind the light of light switch, tasmotised as well. I would also look at zigbee devices...
