The light in the Bambu Lab P1S is nice, but not very bright. It can be hard to see what happens when printing in black or to check the nozzle. I saw some youtuber upgrade his setup and I started to look around for what solutions there are. I found the BL LED mod by Dutch Developer and it looked like exactly what I wanted. I simply ordered that and a cheap LED strip. I had a LED driver already.

The parts assembled easily. The frame was also created by Dutch Developer and printed perfectly in PETG.

Sticking the LED strip to the frame was also painless.

Created a new replacement dust adapter for my circular saw that replaces the original one. The original didn’t fit my Nilfisk Multi II 30 shop vac. Now I don’t need to fiddle with the adapter I first made.

Keeping tradition with doing things backwards, I've finally got a UPS for the rack (mounted in the bottom of the stack). Got a PowerWalker VI 2200R. Its a 2U unit which is all the space I've got left in the rack. Decent price and decent I/O with USB, serial and a slot-in for network expansion + 4 IEC outputs. Its powering everything in the rack and connected via USB to my main server which runs a NUT server that other machines can connect to. A calibration run (100-80%) puts the runtime at about 20 min. Long enough that I'm comfortable setting things to shut down when 20% capacity remains. Summary, I sleep better now.

Built a nice little PiKVM and deployed it in my NAS. The NAS is heavy and placed in a dark half-height place under the stairs so it’s awkward when things go wrong and you need hardware access.

For those that don’t know what PiKVM is: https://pikvm.org/

Serves mainly as a NAS, but also as the host for Plex, HomeAssistant and some other stuff.

Fick konstigt svar från feddit.nu tidigare idag. Berodde det på något särskilt eller normal hicka?
