A VERY short glance at the new version. You're barely scratching the surface here. There would have been so many things you could have compared between them, at the very least; - Noise levels when printing and when idle - Changes in the toolhead department? - Heatup time of the old bed versus the new one - Do they use the same power supply since the bed is now bigger and more power hungry? - Any updates to the software and/or UI? - Any specific issuesthat were in the first version fixed in this one? etc...
That’s the great thing about RUclips that I think 3D printing people have lost sight of. Not everything has to be in a single video and has to have all the nerdy geeky stuff. Sometimes I get to do a comparison that was inspired by my audience on our live show, and that’s it, just that and if I feel like coming back to it, I might. 3D printing has expanded out past the nerds and geeks and 99% of users don’t care what power supply is being used or if it takes 93 seconds to heat up or 87.
I got the klp1 230 my issue is that the endstop is off, when it homes xy make a loud sound, it hits endstop screws makes the whole chamber to resonate. I do not know how to fix that. Any ideas?
@@LoyalMoses I’m looking to get my first 3d printer and am looking at the flashforge 5m and the qidi q1 pro as they are similar price also the k1 is almost in my budget. Would you recommend one of those 3 printers or is there another option which is better
@@LoyalMoses perhaps you're right. A1 isn't great for ABS or ASA unless you enclose it somehow. I'd still say it is a tough sell for my uses, but not as bad with that context. I will say if the bed size was on par (256+) that would entirely change my opinion. 🤷🏼♀️
Nice comparison. $50 more for 20mm... that's what, $2.50 per mm... I guess it's not bad LOL. Did anything else change on the printer, or strictly the size? Would be surprised if they didn't do more under the cover things to it. Thanks for all the excellent content Loyal.
The extruder gearing ration changed, which appears to have a significant impact on the print results at speed, but overall, they did great making it a more reliable machine.
It's so disappointing they didn't fix the most annoying issues the 210 version had: the screen should be on the outside, bizarre filament sensor placement, the top lid being too close to toolhead etc. They basically ignored all the feedback and shipped the same thing for the 3rd time under the same exact name (the v1 version had no screen).
The lid being too close is a strange phenomenon that all of these enclosed machines have, even Bambu and Creality are doing it, it's weird. I really wish they'd changed the screen out to a touch screen instead of this silly stylus thing. Finding this stylus drives me nuts!
I’ve just recently started finding a couple of them in my beard, but it seems my hair would rather just leave my head than change color, at least so far! 😆

Thanks for the video!
The only thing I can't seem to find anywhere is if the size of the printer itself is the same despite the bigger print volume...
How many firmware updates have they done for these? For the kps3 line, they all but abandoned the marlin firmware, which was marlin 1.
I have one on each I haven't done yet. I have the KP3S Pro V2 here as well, not sure if it has an update.
what slicer do i use ? i cant find it on orca slicer

He turned it on! Good job :)
Another great video, thank you as always!
Hehe!
Great video as always
THANK YOU!
Nice comparison to the updated printer.
Thank you!

Good comparison as usual . Like how you showed the difference with temp bump also.
Thanks!
That did make for some fun content! Great video.
Thanks 👍
$395(current price) for this vs an A1 for $399 is a hard sell. This would need to drop to AT LEAST 339 for me to even consider it.
Very different customer base I believe. People looking for an enclosed Klipper machine play has a great option here.

aliexpress at $219 now
Thanks to this vudeo i just bought a 230. I couldn't pass it up for 210$
Ha! Haven’t finished building the printer….
Why do they need so many screws!?!

Cool video , the kingroon is cheap and a very good filament
I think they are fun machines!

@@LoyalMoses Qidi X-Max 3 is the one headroom.
Why did that actually feel like 20 minutes? 😅
What are you saying?! 😂
@@LoyalMoses you said I’ll see you in 20 minutes.. and it felt like 20 minutes later while watching the benchies print…
Hehe
I didn’t recognise you!
It’s my evil twin!
@@LoyalMoses Never trust blondes. 🤣
Had to bleach out the greys lol
Haha!

Hi from discord!
Hey! How are you!?
Ack! Get the beard back!
They grow back, it’s what they do.
