Nope, after waiting sufficiently I got "email or password don't match" error when attempting login. Tried the reset password link again, after resetting via link received in email I "got email or password don't match" again. Pretty certain I wasn't mistyping the passwords or email each time.
Trying to recreate the account got a "that email address is already registered" error so eventually I made a new account using my works email address and was able to order successfully from that.

One for the webshop maintainer:
This is the second time now that I have tried to buy something only to be stumped at the first hurdle of logging in. I forget my password, try a few possibles, then give up and use the reset password link. So far so good, but after changing my password I'm greeted with "your account has exceeded allowed login attempts, please try again in 1 hour". By which time usually something pressing has come up to divert my attention and the cycle repeats a few days later.

It would perhaps be better to reset the account blocked flag following a successful password change.

Also if, while blocked, I try to login again within the hour, does the clock get reset and I have to wait yet another hour from then?

Or you could buy a Duet. ?

where's the fun in that though

OK, I'll take a look at the pins, hadn't thought about RAM … I have the 3S2B unfortunately.

I'm one of those weirdos using a smoothieboard and trying to jam a panedue onto it, though. So I'd quite like to be able to write to the the SD card on a PC then plug it into the panel and send a file due to the slow native SD write speed on smoothie.
Out of interest, are there spare pins that could run the SPI and does the CPU do much when not actively dealing with screen touches and updates? I might have a go myself

Would it be possible to mod a paneldue such that the MCU can read the SD card on the panel and play Gcode files over the UART interface?
That would allow longer wiring when using the panel SD card socket without the noise concerns of long SPI cables.
In fact with a bit of rs422 conversion at each end you could go for really long cables
Silly idea? (I have no idea if any spare SPI capable pins are available on the MCU or indeed if there's the spare horsepower)

Hi Folks,
does anyone know the current draw of a paneldue with the 7" screen as sold here?
Actually the load with the 4.3" and 5" screen options would be handy to know too
