Thank you! I am trying my best to get even better :)
Hmm… okay, that’s a point. I will have to try that someday and test how my fans are going to handle that. Indeed I never printed something over 24 hours print time. Mostly I need only smaller parts for around the house, in car or something like that. It’s very uncommon for me to print something like figures or decoration that takes that long to print. My decision to change the fan setup was pretty simple. I needed my printer to be quiet so that I can print at night (when the baby is sleeping). The stock fans were so loud you could hear the printer with closed doors a few rooms away. So I knew Noctua are quiet, but they don’t make the type of fan normally used for part cooling. So I came up with this solution (or gen1 of this to be more precise as this here is already gen3).
