Bambu Lab P1S Released

[montymint]

My P1S is finally on the way after a few weeks of putting it off (I hate spending money lol) and looking forward to it.

@katie279 have you seen the homeassistant integration for spaghetti detection?

Yup, mostly for the convenience of not having to swap too much

Pretty much why I got it, just easier to have 4 colours loaded, also makes it easy for the wife to swap filaments if she wants to print something.

Oooooh, you know how to excite a geek girl!! . Gonna have to try this!!

I'm torn between a P1S and a A1 bambu.
Need to find more space as already have an Elegoo neptune 4 pro and a Mars 3

 

[Nikumba]

P1S its more elegant with the AMS on top

The AMS on the A1 is meant to be better though!

I would say, if you are only printing PLA/PETG go with the A1

The only reason I’m tempted with the P series is because I don’t know when A1 will go back on sale again after the recall

 

[Conan257]

You won't be able to buy an A1 till May at best. So if it comes down to "when" you want it, the P1S has the availability at the moment.

 

[Zaf]

That sucks!

 

[Conan257]

That sucks!

That's what is being reported by Bambu, i'm unsure how many they've sold but it's got to be 10's of thousands worldwide?

Fingers crossed they'll be offering some reduced-price refurbished models once things are back on track.

How noisy is the P1S compared to Ender 3 or Prusa Mk3 etc?

The P1s is fairly quiet, especially since the recent firmware update. I had a CR10s before it and the p1s is quieter than that.

CR10 are notoriously loud so you're damning with faint praise there.
Having said that I've not seen any reports of the bamboos being loud

Having just moved from an Ender 3 Pro to a P1S, I can't honestly say it's much better. I mean I didn't measure it and the enclosure probably helps a bit. It's fine for me sitting next to it but I'm not doing video calls or anything.

What did amaze me was the confidence it's given me to print things I didn't before. My E3P was fine and printed without major issues most of the time. But the P1S is much more fire and forget for me and I've racked up more hours in the 2 weeks I've had it than probably the last year on the E3P. On that I would print a fair few functional small parts to fix a broken thing but very rarely anything much bigger.

Only the fob were done on the P1S, the bit they stick to was all done on the Ender.

 

[Zaf]

I've decided to pull the trigger on the P1S, is there any other accessories I should look to order at the same time to save on shipping later?

Get the 0.2 and 0.6 nozzles and some filament if any is in stock

Get the 0.2 and 0.6 nozzles and some filament if any is in stock

How do you find the 0.6? what kinda prints are you doing with it, any examples?

 

[Zaf]

Also, would you go for the Hotend assembly over the hotend with nozzle?

tbh when I ordered it was OOS so I'm getting one with my next order of plastic.

Plan is to use it for larger, functional parts where detail is not as needed. the 0.2 will be for when I want smaller, more detailed stuff printing.

I got and will be getting complete assemblies for ease of use.
