Mosquito magnum +

Recently received a mosquito magnum+ with two heaters and two pt1000 temp sensors. Is this usable with the mk3s+? Can the Rambo handle 2 heaters/sensors? Can the psu handle it? I’m having difficulty finding any information about this. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks and meowrry Christmas.

RE:

I'm sorry to say that no, the Einsy cannot support 2 heaters and sensors.  Hence why there's no information on this.  You would have to do major modifications to the MK3 including changing the Einsy for something like a Duet 2, modified software and firmware, etc.

Is there documentation on upgrading or using the duet with the magnum+? As in, does the duet have documentation or something like that? Or am I on my own trying to figure all that out and just trying firmware flashes and seeing what works? Thanks again!

RE: Mosquito magnum +

I've never noticed a guide/manual or even set of instructions for doing the swap.  I suspect you're pretty much on your own unless you can find some one on this forum , the Duet Forum or somewhere like Reddit that has done it and can help.  Most of the posts I could find involved doing a full upgrade to a Zaribo/Bear as well.  I believe that it uses non-marlin firmware, a different filament sensor and will need a new housing at the very least.

Thanks for the information! Looks like this is going to be either one hell of a project or I may as well build that really big printer I saw on YouTube. Any other suggestions on what I can do with this thing?

I don't, but maybe some one else does?

Why not just use it with one heater connected?  Apparently the Magnum+ can use one or two heaters.   I've been using the standard Mosquito in my Mk3s and love it.

I I also have a mosquito/bondtech setup on my mk3s. It works great. I was just seeing what my options were/are seeing as i was given the magnum plus. Is it worth putting a duet 2 or 3 board in there? Dealing with the firmware hassle? Can I even find firmware for the setup? I’m relatively new to the 3D printer game so this is way out of my league. That being said, I’m down for the challenge if there’s information on it. Again, thanks everyone for all the input.
