Hi everyone,
I received my 08max, but unfortunately it is SO INCREDIBLY loud that you can’t work next to it. This is due to the fans for the motherboard and the heating bed control.
For the motherboard, I will use a slow, large fan. The fan for the heating bed control arrived defective, so I want to use a 4-pin PWM fan.
Has anyone already changed anything in the configuration in this regard?
One of the German youtubers, Gerhard (?) I think is his name, did something to quiet his SV08 Max fan (one of them anyway) and posted a youtube about it. He had a pre-production model, though, so I’m not sure if it will be completely on-point with what’s shipping to Kickstarter backers. Maybe worth a look?.
Please do we us know if you’re able to remedy it, and how. Nobody likes noise.
Seems like a recurring problem in a lot of China 3D printers, year after year.
Hello,
i changed the mainboard fan to a noctua with the same specs - and the printer is waaaay quieter now
You probably mean Gergo, from Hungary.
I swapped the SV08 (not Max) motherboard fan for the Noctua equivalent and didn’t change anything else and it’s very quiet with no motherboard overheating.
