  • While everyone is taking a look at the Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra, we thought we'd take a look at it's smaller brother. It's $100 cheaper than the Ultra, but does it deliver the same game-changing tech? We unbox, print, and test it to find out. Check out this video, and then look for our full written review right here:

    100% agree with the levelling. It’s my go to every time before trying anything else when I get a print fail and in general it’s an instant fix. Nice review man, thank you. Subscribed.

    Thanks for the review. One of the first I've seen for the non-ultra version of the Saturn 4. I have a Mars 3 and am going to upgrade. My only hesitation with the Ultra is the Tilt Release tray is that it's just another point in the system than can break. But, I do love that it seems to help with print failures, makes things easier and speeds up printing time. I'm still leaning with the Ultra.

      The ultra is, on paper, twice as fast thanks to that tilt mechanism. I'm as worried about that tilt as you are, but I'm eager to try it for myself. The idea of cutting my print times in half makes printing big pieces like the Tenjin kinda enticing: www.blackforgegames.co.nz/products/tenjin-the-cursed-scholar
      Glad you liked the review!

    Nice to see some other people with an S4 too. I like mine but I don’t like that Elegoo is completely neglecting the firmware. Things like the RERF and auto-resume should have been in both machines and they told me they’re not even sure it’s gonna be there at all, let alone at launch.

    • @EyeXombie
      @EyeXombie 2 месяца назад +1

      Neglecting firmware? No they''re not. It's literally not even fully released yet. Also, they told you what both of them were from the jump. You chose the cheaper one. Should have spent the extra 100 bucks for the ultra. Not sure how that's Elegoo's fault.

    They're not really funnels and instead filters to decant the resin from the vat back to a container while catching any residue / bits of cured resin.

      Regardless of the flip top you still would require more room for a traditional removable cover as it still needs to be picked up and clear the back panel before it can be removed. I would say this one requires less room above it than a traditional lift off enclosure.

    Don't throw away those strainers they are useful just put them in another funnel to make them stable, plus I use sunlu resin and they include those strainers in the resin box so a lot of times I have so many of them that I don't even purchase that most of the time I don't even use my metal strainer funnel.....

    They should definitely install filters in these machines. I’m not a fan of how toxic they are, but dammit they print so well. That and a seal for the cover would be really nice just to save your health

    I regularly use thise plastic spatulas for getting prints off. To the point of buying new ones, and they wre surprisingly difficult to find unless you are searching in a different hobby. They are usually found under automotive for tinting applications. Regardless, i fell like im the only persona who refuses to use the metal spatula now, adter takijg so many chunks out of my previous build plates. Good beg adhesion is the key

    great review, The Saturn 4 Ultra has Wi-Fibut the normal 4 dont :-) I've just received the same Saturn 4 for testing as well, and I'm looking forward to trying it out, where is it possible to get the 2 figures you've printed out, they're really nice :-)

  • @OldSkullSoldier
    @OldSkullSoldier 2 месяца назад +1

    Why you said that filter is garbage? If you have a bad print it's often a must to filter your resin. If you have trouble holding it, buy a funnel.
    As for plastic scraper - yeah, that one is bad, it will last very shortly. But rubber scrapers are very bad idea as they tend to get sticky and it's almost impossible to clean them even with IPA.
    Oh, and you always should use plastic scraper to get you prints from the bed. Metal will damage structure, plastic not and it's enough.

    I'm kinda surprised they aren't selling the drip tray or the camera separate. But they will sell the paper weight of a mini air filter. Not sure what Camera I could get to even fit back there and not get in the way either.

    Arguable the flip up lid takes less space vertically cause with the other Saturns you have to lift the lid up and over, which about doubles the height of the printer where as this is only say 1.5x height

      The title suggest that they are upgraded version, any other name would suggest a "different version" instead of "professional version" it's uncreative, but consumers have limited attention spans.
