Maintain warm enclosure temperature at all times using the bed heater
I have my printers in a steel enclosure. I would like the bed to stay on to keep the inside of the enclosure warm at all times, is there a way to set the pre-heat to not time out?

RE: Maintain warm enclosure temperature at all times using the bed heater
You could set the system to preheat and then set the bed temperature but I wouldn't recommend it. It's a trust thing and unless it says continuously rated on the packet I wouldn't use it as such. A small (old school) lightbulb (say a cooker one as they last for ages) will do the job just as well and can be wired to a thermostat. If heat loss is an issue insulate it or get rid of the metal and use twinwall polycarbonate for the walls.
