@sovol3d Sorry for saying that but external feeding mechanism in SV08MAX is horrible. Even with helper mods you get false positives all the time.

I replaced the feeder with the Infinity Flow S1 and disabled the helper feeder and filament runout sensor. Furthermore, I use a one-piece Bowden tube from the S1 to the SV08MAX. Seems to be ok so far, but I am new to this printer. things may change.

I am looking into adding a S1 to my sv08 max. How did you set it up and how did you disable the feeder and stuff? When I unplug the feeder the printer wont allow printing.

I ran a Bowden tube from the s1 all the way to the print head and stuck a piece of filament in the filament runout sensor tied on both ends so the feeder doesn’t spit it out. Other disassemble the feeder and pull the spring which is wiser but it works .
