@theruttmeister thanks for the feedback, I tried that already it won’t show up in the UI unless you assign it a extruder drive which just gets messy. Your also right about the UI not allowing for multiples CH’s, when I tired that it confuses the UI and decides to not display anything. An option to add visible thermostats/humidistat like the chamber heater to the UI could open many new options like filament heating/dehumidification, multi-stage heating, chillers, or hepa / exhaust ventilation.

RE: High Temperature printing
High heat printer builds are like putting out small fires everywhere. As soon as you get a handle on something, something else comes into play. EVERYTHING starts to matter when you start building up that kind of heat. I just tested out my high heat version 3.0 today which went surprisingly well. This is my work in progress, I built the enclosure out of aluminum on top of a old stainless toolbox my father-in-law gave me, the enclosure's 24 x 24 x 36. It has a 1400W heater/fan combo I found on amazon for $30 originally for a gas fireplace. Everything's insulated and sealed with fire-foam or high heat silicone. The setup utilizes a main return duct at the top of the enclosure used to recirculate the air, it maxes out at roughly 120C. Insides a Ender 5 that I Frankensteined into a core xy running a BMGX2-M w/ mosquito liquids, you can almost cook an egg on the extruder steppers...Its been a fun project but I feel like I got more wrapped up into the challenge of getting it there than anything. Any questions feel free to reach out.

RE: Thermistor help on new duex5 upgrade.
Solved, put an end on a old thermistor and its registering temp on the Duex board, time to tear it all back apart again! ::facetious::YAY!
