Reflex RS

Same as before. Expect 12 months between cycles. This year was odd, printers got released on a shorter cycle. The Saturn 4 Ultra 16K was probably supposed to be the Saturn 5, but Elegoo released it early (only 7-8 months after the Saturn 4/4 Ultra). Probably because Uniformation was releasing the 16

HeyGears. Since upgrading to a HeyGears RS Turbo 6 months ago, I haven’t had to do any of the usual mucking around that you usually have to do with resin printers. I’m about 50kg of resin in by now, and I’ve had zero failures. The machine did its auto levelling on day one and that was the setup proc

Nothing wrong with Heygears because they work as well as they tell you they do. Some of their parts cost a little more but I actually spend less over time because their screens and film last 3-4x longer than elegoo. They're not as closed as some people seem to think and the RS line will be opening u

+1 for heygears. The Reflex RS Turbo is the best hobby printer on the market right now imo. With the slicer and settings opening up next quarter there’s no downside. Plus I’ve run a bunch of non-heygears resin using the built in presets and I’ve never had a failure yet

heygears rs, its a setup you buy if you really dont wanna faff. with resin printing id recommend spending that bit extra if you can... so you aren't put off the hobby. Resin printing is effort compared to fdm so id advise get a printer that works well, so you can learn the hobby and not be trying to

Miniatures are easy. Mechanical parts not so much. I suggest reading Jan Mrazek’s blog to understand what’s needed to print dimensionally accurate parts. That or buy a Form4… The consumer resin printer market is heavily optimized for printing miniatures, figures, etc. Spending more in this space doe

Anycubic is a non-starter imho. Poor support, poor QC (and the bar is low as is), and no per layer wait times. Elegoo is the best of the budget tier. The Saturn 3 non-Ultra is probably the best bang for your buck printer available right now, if it’s available in your region. At the high end sits the

Yeah honestly imo even the RS is quite a bit better than any Elegoo printer anyways, so it's the best bang for your buck and then eventually when profile editing is a thing, you'll probably be able to tune engineering resins to it anyways, whether you want to use them or not. As for normal resins, I

Their lineup and naming is confusing. The Turbo is just a screen upgrade for the Reflex and Reflex RS that controls light bleed better and speeds up the printing. Think of it as just an add on for them. (but a necessary one) As for the printers, Reflex RS is for miniatures and more basic resins. The

I've owned 2 Anycubic printers before and now I also have HeyGears RS Turbo that I've been using since January. HeyGears is 100% the closest thing to Bambu out of all the resin printers out there. Quality of the machine itself is amazing. It might not be important to some people but it actually look
