      Can't find any infos on this: what's the maximum operating temp for the smart effector (e.g. in a heated chamber). Would 60-80C still be ok?

        @bberger the limiting factors for the Smart Effector are:

        • The LEDs are rated to 85C. Above that they will probably still work, but their light output will decrease faster.
        • When using a 24V heatsink fan supply, the series resistor for the illumination LEDs might overheat eventually if the chamber temperature is high.

          Thank you for the quick response! Sounds like ~50-60C would be the reasonable target then.
