Thank you for making videos like this not only are they informational for people with the printer but also just fun to watch for people like me who are interested in 3d printers you’re one of my favorite RUclipsrs to just watch in my spare time you are an amazing RUclipsr don’t stop doing what you’re doing.
It's a point and you could use a clear brown UV bottle like they use for lab chemicals. Still you do have a 1 litre buffer in the vat.. so I think it's ultimately a non issue really.
I joined the printing world with a creality ender 5 and I almost quit!!! the Creality machine from out of the box till now 2 years later has been a total nightmare it has to be repaired or modified to get it to work correctly I hate it!! based on my issues with that I decided to get an Elegoo Mars 2 for a first resin printer... OH my damn!!! out of the box, one build plate level set, and it's flawless!!! Elegoo is top-notch for the price point!! I can't wait till my Kickstarter order is shipped !!!! I'm so excited !!!!!
I did back this printer + the Anycubic Photon Ultra - DLP. Wondering if there is a big difference in resolution comparing with the Phrozen Sonic Mega 8K. Could you show some detailed prints side by side? I'm still trying to decide if I should keep the Photon Ultra as the build volume is really small. Great review! Thanks for the hard work!
i also backed both printers. and today i spent several hours deciding if i wanted larger build volume with very nice detail 50um, and very well built with a metal chasis.. or if i wanted a super tiny one-two miniature at a time build plate.. and even better micro detailing.. "even though its considered 80um" and super cheap build quality.. as well as a very shitty slide in resin vat design... i decided that the jupiter having worse overall print quality.. but its still superb, and being far far better in every other aspect. wins out. i doubt the dlp lasting 20k hours and having slightly better micro details is worth fep's getting damaged over poor design. or just simply being limited to building 2"x 4" . ill gladly spend that 550 i backed on the ultra on an extra 2-3 mlcd screen for the jupiter. as excited as i am abbout dlp with everyone else. ill be waiting until there are medium sized dlp's at consumer level prices.
@@tedbowman965 Same here, I will probably cancel my order for the Photon Ultra just because the printing volume is really small and price wise I'm not saving much. Also Phrozen is coming with some news today. Wondering if it's a smaller 8K 3D printer.
I just got my jupiter and am loving it. That being said there is one thing I can’t stand about it… THAT BEEP AT THE START AND THE END IS SSOOO LOUD! It definitely needs one of two options: on off or a volume control.
Thanks jessy great rundown as usual. I wish i had of asked if you could pause the resin filler at any point because if you notice a failed print its going to be frustrating having to wait for the resin filler to stop before you can empty the vat
I really enjoy your videos - I bought a photon mono x 4K last year - I still have not even started trying it - your videos are helping me feel like I just need to go for it
Great review on the Jupiter printer!!! As someone looking to get started in 3D printing I always look forward to your videos and reviews cause you have so much enthusiasm and are not pulling any punches with your honest thoughts and feelings. What printer ( brand, size,) would you recommend for someone just getting started in 3-D printing? Thanks again for your great videos …..keep up the good work!!!!
Chitubox basic has that new setting for different speeds when it lift up and comes back down can you do a video on that. its suppose to make print times faster but I feel like it takes longer.
Before this, the setting could be configured in the gcode. And it was something that caused headaches with the first Saturn models because the lift distance was set to 3.5 mm. In some cases not enough to separate the model from the FEP during printing before it was switching to higher speed. ChiTuBox 1.9 requires a firmware update for the setting to take effect. You are also locked to use the new encrypted ctb format by that update.
Uncle Jessy! Hey found out you gotten one and Im also confused about everything. Always wanted a 3D printer, could you do a complete beginner's guide of a recent safety video and what else products and investments we need for resin prints to clean or cure? Alternative curing methods until we can invest the appropriate cleaning prints. Do you clean it first or cure it first? Etc. I've seen you recommend stuff in some of your videos like masks and gloves, supersonic cleaners(??) With mean green, but could it be all in one video? To prepare while we wait for our printer? Please and thank you. Im lost when it comes to this. If it's too long, I'll be happy with part one and two. But I've looked up to you ever since I've seen you on tiktok and would love your best 2021 recommendations. 🙏🙏🙏
I bought a Saturn in 2020 and am fairly happy with it. I bought that upgrade from my OG Photon because a new "breakthru" had been made, in that case it was the bigger size and the mono 4K screen. From here I need another breakthru before I buy again, not just more resolution or bigger. I think I'll wait till they get something like zero suction tech in these, I've heard its new tech that allows resin printers to just print in one continuous upward movement, no need to peel thin slices layers one by one.
Thanks for the video! My biggest concern is the storage of the little refill cap as you mentioned. Lets say you let the printer sit for a couple of weeks, you have to store the cap to not get the resin to harden. Either you wash it out with ipa in between prints or you have to store it inside the printer :*
I backed the top package for 2 printers - I did plan on having them side by side - purely for space reasons. It would have been better to front USB and Rear vents. I know i’ll get 2 carbon air scrubbers. I use a 12” carbon filter with extractor rated to the volume of my room - works incredibly well Like you stated about hanging the door, with 2 machines next to each other - it would be better to hinge the right machine on its right side - allowing the doors to open from the middle out!
Thanks so much for the great video as always! Question - Is there any access from the rear or side of the case to add a new bottle of resin to the auto feeding spot during a print since you wont be able to reach across the print from the front?
That extension option is super cool! I could definitely use that feature! In general this seems like a really cool machine. I've got a Phrozen Sonic Mega 8k at home waiting to be set up but now, I'm seriously considering just selling it because this just seems like a much more functional machine. I know it's early on but I'd love to see a comparison video as this seems to me the best competition to that machine, and it's significantly cheaper.
its cheaper but its also has a lower overall resolution. Besides the even huger building plate. I wonder if you actually bought the jupiter and what your experiences are.
With a larger printer you're usually doing large prints that take many hours to complete, which your at the very least leaving overnight to print. Does the printer have a feature which will automatically turn off the machine once a print is complete?
Hello, Thank you for the videos! Btw, for the bottle compatibility, just refill old bottle, no need to keep some for compatibility :) or even print a bigger one with compatible bottleneck :)
Great videos! As a backer this is great info. Very excited for this product. Would you say that the print quality/detail is as good or better/worse than another large format printer like the Phrozen 8k?
The Mega8K has 43 microns XY resolution. The Jupiter has 51 microns. So on the paper, the Mega8K is better. If you want to print display pieces (miniatures, statues for painting), then a smaller XY resolution is better. BUT, you also need good (precision) resin. Try Longer 3D Deep Peach, Nova3D Red Wax or Resione M70 resin if you want better detail. Tonight Phrozen will present the Sonic Mini 8K. For miniature printing this could be very interesting. My guess is, that we will get something in the 25-ish micron range for XY resolution. That's on the level of a Solus or EnvisionTEC DLP. With the right resin, we can print models that are good enough to be used as master model for resin casting. Provided the z-axis is stable enough and does not lead to failures with layer shifts.
11:40 I see no reason to not have a partial top side LIP to stop volume spillage, consider high probability that you will be pouring over a litre of resin
Big props to Elegoo for getting this into your hands, and of course, to you for the video. Not that it will make the wait any easier, but I'm sure we all appreciate knowing what to expect ahead of time. I was also a little confused by the mono screen comment in the previous video, but mistakes happen. Your delivery is fantastic, keep up the good work!
Wonder if when printing minis, or anything really, could you run supports between the unused surface areas past the first set of minis and create a 2nd, 3rd, and maybe even a 4th "shelf" or "level" to print another set of minis until you reach the max z axis.
Weird Question, for multiple machines, can it be connected to a switch with Ethernet cable then connect to a computer? or one machine only able to connect to one computer?
If I were Elegoo I'd add a button in the interface to turn that usb on and off as I assume some people will find another use for it aside from the filter.
Great update!! I backed the printer as well and cant wait to see how they update/correct the printer before they ship. Will they be providing you with a final production model before they ship to test/review?
I'm waiting until May next year with buying any new printer. This one is huge and looks awesome, but I'm pretty sure with that amount of time, something new will show up.
Wouldn’t it print in about a quarter of the time if you set it horizontally? Sure resin might pool up around the eye holes, but if you get out right away, just tilt it and dump the resin back. I mean 3.5 hours versus 14 would more than make up for increased cleanup time.
@UncleJessy do you have a video about leveling this machine?? i have had it for almost a month now and I still haven't bein able to have a successful print. the manufacturer sends a card with instruction yet their website video is different. Im so frustrated if anyone knows how to get this going pls let me know
Uncle Jessy, what large format 3d resin printer would you suggest to someone who needs to do short production runs? I need two at least. I need something with available parts as well. I've been looking mainly at the Peopoly Forge and Elegoo Jupiter. Jupiter seems to be the only printer in its class with a good bed leveling system. Thank you.
I’m curious if they’ll make a different vat for some of the other smaller machines with a smaller bottle to help top it off. Hopefully that made sense. It did to me
hi uncle jessy i just found a kind of new patreon who i think deserved way more patron he is doing stl file from dc and marvel in a chibi style like chibistl with a mix of tim burton twist
nice run down over the last couple vids.... thats a monster heh guessing with the larger fep, like other of similar size. the retraction distance would need to be a fair bit higher due to the stretch on such a large area. would be interested to see if elegoo has thought of selling (or including) a specific spacer or some sort of mechanism to get the FEP tension roughly right when replacing, especially since its raised, which adds another problematic dimension. i know when i had to do my M2P for the first time it was a bit of a clencher as i really didnt know what to use. only because theres country differences with soda bottle tops etc.. (here in uk and the difference is marginal, but it caused my first attempt to damage the fep)
What resins do you use for low fumes/smell and do you know any water washable low smell resins, i've been printing 2-3 months but the smell is giving me a bad throat, struggle to ware a vapour mask as my skin reacts with the one I use, but just being in the same room when im clean a part is giving me a sore throat. recently build a enclosure with vent for when the machine is runningbut cleaning is a nightmare, any help would be great.
Well, ya changed me back to being excited about it. Still bummed about the Chitu Cheats Ya Box sitch and the weird build plate architecture that looks like an incomplete, upside-down pagoda. Looks like they could have increased the Z length.
Hello Uncle Jessy, I just started my 3D printing journey a month ago after inherriting an Anycubic Photon from my brother. I print almost exclusively for D&D. I need something with a larger print volume and I'm torn between the Elegoo Saturn or the Photon Mono X. Or should I spring for the Jupiter? Any help would be greatly appreciated
How about sharing the settings youre using? Seems to be a total lack of those online and the default settings in chitubox... like all the other elegoo models are insufficient.
Hi guys I know this is off topic but I need help. I bought myself a elegoo mars 3 and a elegoo mercury plus. Problem I have is that I've mixed the power cables up and not sure which one is for which machine. I'm no good with electrics and am scared I will blow my machine if I plug the wrong adaptor in. I have done the obvious and checked the labels on both machines. Ones a 24v and ones a 12v just can't see which one fits what machine. Please advise. Thanks for any help in advance
Thanks for this! Looks like next year I start buying the 5kg jugs of Siraya Tech, not least of which because I'll need one of those things to empty the vat! The idea of pouring resin out of that and overfilling one of the standard 1kg bottles is ... Not pleasing.
@@UncleJessy Pretty soon they're gonna need to start selling resin in paint cans so we can use those paint shakers. Just imagine the horrible mess we could make with one of those!
I'm going to try and use large syringes designed for pulling fork oil from dirt bikes. They're not expensive and have enough capacity to be relevant in what I see you guys doing. I'm a newbie and pre-ordered the Jupiter here. I do metal fabrication as a hobby. I wanted to be able to experiment with plastics as well.
I see a problem with the resin after a number of hours where the colour settles to the bottom of the vat, going to have to stir the resin somehow. Also, why waste so much space with the build plate so far away from the main support, reduce that and gain some height in build volume.
Hi Uncle Jessy, thank you for this helpful video! That make me think, can you give a tour of your studio and rate the printer you are using or you tried ? Maybe by printer size (small, medium and large), this would be super helpful! Thank you again!
Chitu based board is a DOA issue for me. Any company that is going to lock you in to their software based on hardware that they have sold to a manufacturer needs to be driven out of business. Any manufacturer that elects to use chitu boards and accepts that as a requirement need to go out of business with them.
@@MageLeaderInc Lychee has been very open about their ability to work with the new locked down printers. Chitu has said that they intend to allow other software bus as of yet they have made no attempt for this to happen. You can build all of your supports in Lychee and then save the model out as an STL to be sliced in Chitubox. Elegoo has no say in what Chitu does.
@@MageLeaderInc I'd join the Lychee team discord and ask them about that. Last time (when Elegoo started the KS), they did not know anything about the alleged agreement between them and ChiTu. :D

Wowza! Thanks so much for the kind words. A nice reminder to keep making content. Thanks!
Thank you for much for this Q&A, I was so glad that Elegoo sent you a printer. I am pretty much sold and ready to back on Kickstarter
Excited to get that screen replacement and start showing off some stupidly large prints
It would be cool to have a clear level measuring line on the side of a bottle so you can actually see how mush you have left
Haha funny you mention that. I also tossed out the idea of some sort of clear bottle option.
@@UncleJessy Wouldn't that be a problem for protecting the resin from UV light?
I am surprised someone has not just printed a bottle from clear resin.
It's a point and you could use a clear brown UV bottle like they use for lab chemicals.
Still you do have a 1 litre buffer in the vat.. so I think it's ultimately a non issue really.
Glad to hear that the bed leveling mechanism is rock solid. Thanks!

lychee slicer can slice for chitu boards. I use it exclusively on my Saturn
Well, that eliminated a big, steer-sized beef for me. Now if they do something about the screwy louie build plate mount…
Another incredible video well done Jessy!!
Thanks for checking it out!
Already preordered, upgrading from a Saturn! After watching both of your videos, can’t wait!
Saturn is a fantastic machine. This is basically a super Saturn.
I just got my jupiter and am loving it. That being said there is one thing I can’t stand about it… THAT BEEP AT THE START AND THE END IS SSOOO LOUD! It definitely needs one of two options: on off or a volume control.
Thanks jessy great rundown as usual. I wish i had of asked if you could pause the resin filler at any point because if you notice a failed print its going to be frustrating having to wait for the resin filler to stop before you can empty the vat
Looks good! Those build volume prints are awesome. Been wishing someone did those for all the printers
Uncle Jessy, congrats on the video: SO MANY QUESTIONS you answered! That’s an excellent work man! 🤯
That is so awesome I’m so glad I got mine pre-ordered. I cannot wait
I really enjoy your videos -
I bought a photon mono x 4K last year - I still have not even started trying it - your videos are helping me feel like I just need to go for it
When I've printed flat items directly on the plate, I've removed them pretty easily by loosening them with a heat gun and then scraping.
Just 6 or so months till i get this bad boy

Just got our today, the packing and shipment is a wooden shipping crate with cardboard packaging with 2+ inch foam surrounding the entire machine.
I was so confused why Elegoo would roll out a new printer without a mono screen
Glad to know that was just an error in description
I backed the top package for 2 printers - I did plan on having them side by side - purely for space reasons. It would have been better to front USB and Rear vents. I know i’ll get 2 carbon air scrubbers. I use a 12” carbon filter with extractor rated to the volume of my room - works incredibly well
Like you stated about hanging the door, with 2 machines next to each other - it would be better to hinge the right machine on its right side - allowing the doors to open from the middle out!
Awesome vid. Since the printer is modular... does Elegoo plan to have a DLP core. Would be nice to have that as a future upgrade path.
It's very fun they used astronomy to refer to their different printers' volume!
Keep it up Uncle Jessy!! Greetings from Chile!
Yay you answered the question about the flex plates :)
110% will be seeing a flex plate on mine.
@@UncleJessy can you measure the build plate and give exact dimensions? Wham Bam says to not go by specs.
DP Zero is so good. Nice one Uncle Jessy.
A big addition to the vat would be a measurement guide on usable resin levels,200,400ml lines
Thanks so much for the great video as always!
Question - Is there any access from the rear or side of the case to add a new bottle of resin to the auto feeding spot during a print since you wont be able to reach across the print from the front?
That extension option is super cool! I could definitely use that feature! In general this seems like a really cool machine. I've got a Phrozen Sonic Mega 8k at home waiting to be set up but now, I'm seriously considering just selling it because this just seems like a much more functional machine. I know it's early on but I'd love to see a comparison video as this seems to me the best competition to that machine, and it's significantly cheaper.
its cheaper but its also has a lower overall resolution. Besides the even huger building plate. I wonder if you actually bought the jupiter and what your experiences are.
It would be super awesome if you could do an update before the kickstarter campaign ends! Thanks so much Jessy!
With a larger printer you're usually doing large prints that take many hours to complete, which your at the very least leaving overnight to print. Does the printer have a feature which will automatically turn off the machine once a print is complete?
I wish my Saturn did. Mine is in the room next to my bedroom and it runs all night
Can't wait for the Elegoo Uranus.
Hello,
Thank you for the videos! Btw, for the bottle compatibility, just refill old bottle, no need to keep some for compatibility :) or even print a bigger one with compatible bottleneck :)
Great videos! As a backer this is great info. Very excited for this product. Would you say that the print quality/detail is as good or better/worse than another large format printer like the Phrozen 8k?
I will be doing some print compares once I get the new screen. I also have the phenom prime on hand 🤯
The Mega8K has 43 microns XY resolution. The Jupiter has 51 microns. So on the paper, the Mega8K is better. If you want to print display pieces (miniatures, statues for painting), then a smaller XY resolution is better. BUT, you also need good (precision) resin. Try Longer 3D Deep Peach, Nova3D Red Wax or Resione M70 resin if you want better detail.
Tonight Phrozen will present the Sonic Mini 8K. For miniature printing this could be very interesting. My guess is, that we will get something in the 25-ish micron range for XY resolution. That's on the level of a Solus or EnvisionTEC DLP. With the right resin, we can print models that are good enough to be used as master model for resin casting. Provided the z-axis is stable enough and does not lead to failures with layer shifts.
@@UncleJessy Should you be getting it before the kickstarter ends? Im hovering over the backing option on KS
never mind lol I backed it 😅😅
getting my Jupiter this thursday!
Hey, I've got a question! When can I buy this thing?!
they do include 5 resin caps for it incase there are issues or you want multiple bottles to switch out.
The Jupiter is my first 3d printer. I'd love a set up tutorial. I think I get it but double checking would be nice.
Thanks for the overview -- how hard do you think it will be to change a FEP sheet?
11:40 I see no reason to not have a partial top side LIP to stop volume spillage, consider high probability that you will be pouring over a litre of resin
Big props to Elegoo for getting this into your hands, and of course, to you for the video. Not that it will make the wait any easier, but I'm sure we all appreciate knowing what to expect ahead of time.
I was also a little confused by the mono screen comment in the previous video, but mistakes happen. Your delivery is fantastic, keep up the good work!
Mega vs Jupiter comparison video please 😁
OOOO that auto resin feed is a brilliant thing
Wonder if when printing minis, or anything really, could you run supports between the unused surface areas past the first set of minis and create a 2nd, 3rd, and maybe even a 4th "shelf" or "level" to print another set of minis until you reach the max z axis.
Weird Question, for multiple machines, can it be connected to a switch with Ethernet cable then connect to a computer? or one machine only able to connect to one computer?
I honestly don’t know. My print room requires a 50-100ft Ethernet cable 🤣😂
There's currently no Ethernet port on the Jupiter but the last update their Kickstarter put out said the final product will have an Ethernet port.
Love that Dr. Pepper is becoming a regular guest on the show. Get that guy on more often
If I were Elegoo I'd add a button in the interface to turn that usb on and off as I assume some people will find another use for it aside from the filter.
Great update!! I backed the printer as well and cant wait to see how they update/correct the printer before they ship.
Will they be providing you with a final production model before they ship to test/review?
That thing is a beast! Very nice!
Yeah man… big
Good god that thing is crazy big..... Like Jupiter.
Based on the samples you show it seems that Siraya is the only firm to source their bottles from a different fab lol
I have a Saturn and can easily print using Lychee slicer.
Have you updated to the latest firmware for ChiTuBox 1.9? If not, then that's the reason why you can still use Lychee.
I'm waiting until May next year with buying any new printer. This one is huge and looks awesome, but I'm pretty sure with that amount of time, something new will show up.
Wouldn’t it print in about a quarter of the time if you set it horizontally? Sure resin might pool up around the eye holes, but if you get out right away, just tilt it and dump the resin back. I mean 3.5 hours versus 14 would more than make up for increased cleanup time.
Hey Uncle Jessy, where did you get your orange Silicone Matt from?
You can run the Windows version easily with VMWare Fusion which is now free
@UncleJessy do you have a video about leveling this machine?? i have had it for almost a month now and I still haven't bein able to have a successful print. the manufacturer sends a card with instruction yet their website video is different. Im so frustrated if anyone knows how to get this going pls let me know
I like yellow lights a lot over cold white. I hope they don't change or at least give the option

Hopefully that made sense. It did to me
I'm waiting for the Elegoo Pluto. Rumor has it that it can print a full size human...
Great review. I could be wrong, but wasn't there a large format resin printer that you were able to print a full helmet on?
With the auto feeder is it possible to Minimize peeling forces on the build plate by reducing the amount of resin above the screen?
hi uncle jessy i just found a kind of new patreon who i think deserved way more patron he is doing stl file from dc and marvel in a chibi style like chibistl with a mix of tim burton twist
So ready for this machine.
Great video!
Great video, any refills for the filter?
nice run down over the last couple vids.... thats a monster heh
guessing with the larger fep, like other of similar size. the retraction distance would need to be a fair bit higher due to the stretch on such a large area.
would be interested to see if elegoo has thought of selling (or including) a specific spacer or some sort of mechanism to get the FEP tension roughly right when replacing, especially since its raised, which adds another problematic dimension.
i know when i had to do my M2P for the first time it was a bit of a clencher as i really didnt know what to use. only because theres country differences with soda bottle tops etc.. (here in uk and the difference is marginal, but it caused my first attempt to damage the fep)
Uncle Jessy can this Jupiter print a full size helmet in one shot like the old Peopoly?
have you resolved the back plate verticle line issue? and what was the cause
What resins do you use for low fumes/smell and do you know any water washable low smell resins, i've been printing 2-3 months but the smell is giving me a bad throat, struggle to ware a vapour mask as my skin reacts with the one I use, but just being in the same room when im clean a part is giving me a sore throat.
recently build a enclosure with vent for when the machine is runningbut cleaning is a nightmare, any help would be great.
Well, ya changed me back to being excited about it. Still bummed about the Chitu Cheats Ya Box sitch and the weird build plate architecture that looks like an incomplete, upside-down pagoda. Looks like they could have increased the Z length.
Is there a tank clean option like the Saturn?

@@UncleJessy oh thank God the Saturn spoiled me.
Hello Uncle Jessy, I just started my 3D printing journey a month ago after inherriting an Anycubic Photon from my brother. I print almost exclusively for D&D. I need something with a larger print volume and I'm torn between the Elegoo Saturn or the Photon Mono X. Or should I spring for the Jupiter? Any help would be greatly appreciated
How about sharing the settings youre using? Seems to be a total lack of those online and the default settings in chitubox... like all the other elegoo models are insufficient.
Hi guys I know this is off topic but I need help. I bought myself a elegoo mars 3 and a elegoo mercury plus. Problem I have is that I've mixed the power cables up and not sure which one is for which machine. I'm no good with electrics and am scared I will blow my machine if I plug the wrong adaptor in. I have done the obvious and checked the labels on both machines. Ones a 24v and ones a 12v just can't see which one fits what machine. Please advise. Thanks for any help in advance
Thanks for this! Looks like next year I start buying the 5kg jugs of Siraya Tech, not least of which because I'll need one of those things to empty the vat! The idea of pouring resin out of that and overfilling one of the standard 1kg bottles is ... Not pleasing.
OMG!!! Why have I never thought about that. I have a bunch of big vat printers and pouring into multiple bottles is never fun
@@UncleJessy Pretty soon they're gonna need to start selling resin in paint cans so we can use those paint shakers. Just imagine the horrible mess we could make with one of those!
I'm going to try and use large syringes designed for pulling fork oil from dirt bikes. They're not expensive and have enough capacity to be relevant in what I see you guys doing. I'm a newbie and pre-ordered the Jupiter here. I do metal fabrication as a hobby. I wanted to be able to experiment with plastics as well.
What temp is the room your printing in? Wondering if a cool basement would be good?
Thanks
Hi! how did you make the print timelapse? 4.26-4.32 and 8.52-8.58 sek
After a year do you still reccomend the machine? Have you had any issues and has it been your daily driver?
I see a problem with the resin after a number of hours where the colour settles to the bottom of the vat, going to have to stir the resin somehow. Also, why waste so much space with the build plate so far away from the main support, reduce that and gain some height in build volume.
Do you have a preference between this and the Peopoly Phenom?
Why you show us not the right side with the USB and power port? You spoke in this and your last video about, but there was no foto from.
Hi Uncle Jessy, thank you for this helpful video! That make me think, can you give a tour of your studio and rate the printer you are using or you tried ? Maybe by printer size (small, medium and large), this would be super helpful! Thank you again!
Do u have a link for the slap mat you have that is a great size… one that I need
hello uncle Jessy,
which wash and cure are you using for your prints?
Fornthis printer, which Elegoo Mercury its recomended?
What about the screen, and how its lifted off the main surface?
2 things...I preorder it so yay me but also how did you get a review unit so quick...?
Have had a long standing relationship with Elegoo. Also congrats on the preorder!
@@UncleJessy thanks I want to eventually start my 3d printing channel so I might start there
Chitubox is NOT required. Elgoo reps said it will be Lychee compatiable.
Chitu based board is a DOA issue for me. Any company that is going to lock you in to their software based on hardware that they have sold to a manufacturer needs to be driven out of business. Any manufacturer that elects to use chitu boards and accepts that as a requirement need to go out of business with them.
I would agree that the locked boards needs to change and hopefully we hear some further updates soon. Being locked to one slicer really does stink
Elegoo has stated that Lychee will be able to run on these boards by the time they ship. Unless Chitubox changes their mind.
@@MageLeaderInc Lychee has been very open about their ability to work with the new locked down printers. Chitu has said that they intend to allow other software bus as of yet they have made no attempt for this to happen. You can build all of your supports in Lychee and then save the model out as an STL to be sliced in Chitubox. Elegoo has no say in what Chitu does.
@@MageLeaderInc I'd join the Lychee team discord and ask them about that. Last time (when Elegoo started the KS), they did not know anything about the alleged agreement between them and ChiTu. :D
Wondering if you could resin print your Deadpool/Spiderman magnetic base mask on that beast?
Got my Elegoo Jupiter about a week ago, its great! But I was wondering if anyone knew how to turn off the beeping sounds?
What’s the final review? When is supposed to be released?
Awesome video.
What are the dimensions of the printer itself, not the print volume?
Can you attach a vent hose to it?
