  • currently I have a elegoo neptune 4+ and I’ve been doing research quite a bit and landed on the Qidi q2.

    even though I heard how good the centuri is I’ll never buy another elegoo product mainly because I had mine crap out on me twice, and could only get good quality prints with some custom hacked firmware. and elegoo swore up and down about multicolor coming for the centuri… and I guess not what I’ve heard and will come out on the centuri 2…

    bumbu I hate their business model, last I checked you had to load some updated firmware and all your prints go through them first before it comes back down to the printer, it was a big fiasco about a year ago. in all honesty, I’m waiting for them to monitor actively everything that gets printed and you know wont be 2a friendly

    here’s my reasons for the Q2

    1. heated chamber
    2. runs modded klipper not some propriety firmware
    3. qidi box is only 150$ more for multicolor
    4. qidi box is a filament dryer
    5. qidi box is designed to run abrasive filaments through it (all the others thats a no no)
    6. nozzle temp will do anything even peek if you want to drop the cash for filament.

    just waiting for black friday or Halloween sale.

    hope that helps.
