No Max Power Spec in Documentation

Open zedn4c3r opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

None of the documentation lists a max power load for items attached to the tool plate.

Part of the intended use case for this product is to be able to connect laser tool heads and other hardware to the tool plate. The selection of a laser is highly dependent on how much power it can provide.

I second this.

I received a hermit crab can for review purposes and i have no idea how much i can push thru it or what my max heater size can be.

The power connector for micro usb mode looks undersized, but the tool board for usb c has 5 amp fuses.....i dont know what this means

What is the max heater cartridge a person can use?

Posted elsewhere but I'd also like to know the 5v ratings. Most importantly the maximum current it can source.

Should definitely be! I almost grilled my Crab due to too high current
