Stock Shortages
-
I have been looking to buy a duet 3 mainboard and a filament monitor for a while, but I have noticed that stock seems to be a bit unreliable. I know there are worldwide supply-chain issues with electronics, but I am curious if this is what is affecting the supply of these devices.
I am also curious if the laser filament monitor or the magnetic filament monitor are the recommended device for future use.
-
@kiendeleo yes we had some delays with our manufacturer (due to Covid stopping play) which delayed our ability to send out mainboards to our resellers.
The magnetic filament monitor is delayed partly due to us assessing how to proceed with the housing manufacture but it will be recommended over the laser filament monitor due to it working with a wider range of filament types.

@t3p3tony Thank you for the quick responce. Is there somewhere I can go to track the progress of the Magnetic filament sensor?
-
@kiendeleo not really, but when we have an update we will make an announcement here.

@t3p3tony hello sorry if i am doing this incorrect. i did not want to start a new post and have it feel like im rubbing it in that thd magnetic duet filament sensor is unavailable....but, i have used quite a bit of time and energy just to find it out of stock for a while. can someone please invoice me brandonnorman@gmail.com for the sensor , pcb only is fine , that way i can pay now and rest easy knowing it is eventually coming and simply wait my turn to receive one....?
