I bought a new photon from Amazon last week to go alongside my original photon.
I knew it might be a "Photon Updated" or Fauxton, even though in the description it was just listed as a Photon without indication of the version.
I was all prepared to buy an original photon motherboard, to convert a "Photon Updated" into a "Photon" as having two printers with the same spec was important to me, so much so that £100 for a new motherboard, less whatever I could sell the "Photon Updated" or "S" board for to someone needing a spare, was well worth it.
Anyway, there was two options on Amazon, "Photon with extras" (resin etc) with a manufacturers code of "Photon 001" , or "Photon without extras" with a £15 difference in price with a manufacturer code of "PTA002"...
From this I can conclude that the one without resin in Amazon UK seems to be the original Photon, I have just populated a shopping cart with a quantity of "100" and then gone through to the purchase screen, and it is confirming Amazon have the 100 to send, so probably more than this!
Normally if you put in a stock level that your amazon region does not have, in the final screen of the shopping cart it will say "Sorry only X amount available in stock for immediate dispatch"
So if you want a new Original Photon and you are in the UK, Amazon still have them.

Product review... 5m LED UV Strip from Amazon - Buyer beware! When I first got my Photon in August, I obviously needed a curing station, so followed what many in here had done and made one from a box, lined in foil, with some ventilation and lined it with 5m of led strips from Amazon. This worked great for a few hours in total, I probably used it in 10 min blasts a couple of times a week. They worked fine at first, finally curing parts in about 10 mins of exposure.
Within about 3 weeks I noticed that the LED strips were becoming dimmer and were less purple and more white coloured light. It was also taking longer to finally cure parts.
Then quickly the next time I used the curing station I noticed the light was now coming out in a yellow or orange colour and was not seeming to cure the parts at all.
Then I put a dot of fresh resin, on a microscope slide and put it into the curing station and switched it on... After half an hour, the resin was still a complete liquid!!

So I removed the LED strips, looked more closely and could see that the rubbery coating on them had yellowed all the way through, wherever there was an LED component.

So I logged into Amazon and requested a product return and typed in a description of the problem, "Coating is not UV friendly, has degraded and yellowed, blocking the UV light and making the product not fit for use"
I completely forgot about this, until today I had another email from Amazon asking how the seller had dealt with my complaint and product return.
So, I checked Amazon, no messages there from the seller, and also checked my email accounts, no messages there either. and left my comments with Amazon in their questionnaire. explaining that I will throw the product away, review it, and contact my bank for a chargeback"
So here is my review chaps, avoid this product.
I have peeled off the coating, which comes off in 10mm bits, one part came off in a 200mm length, which I have added the picture here.
Unfortunately even when the coating is removed, there is still a sliver still stuck to the LED's which will not come off and is still not allowing the UV through.
Here is a link to the product on Amazon, it is probably sold by various sellers, but design is the problem, and if they cocked up the material selection for the waterproofing, who knows what else they cocked up in the design, so I would not even buy the non waterproof version!

I have a question as a newbie.

I’m printing what is approximately a 1:53 scale figure that stands on a flat platform.

The platform is about as thick as a US .25 cent coin and is about 15x25mm in size.

My question is, how do I minimize the curling of the flat platform once it’s printed.

Any thoughts? I checked the files section but couldn’t find anything that stood out.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi, new to Photon and 3d printing. Any ideas why the Photonia test is slanted from front to back (1.6x mm -> 1.2x mm) and columns are distorted on Y axis? Column sides perpendicular to X axis are straight. Also on two tests there is delamination happening on front side side (front is thicker at 1.6x mm). Done 4 prints with Anycubic Translucent Green with exactly the same end result - slant is always the same. I did level the bed 3 times between tests using different methods. Ball joint is clean and tight. Even when build platform is clamped into vice I could not shift the platform. I can feel some backlash on Z screw. Also platform caves in a bit in the middle (will have it lapped next week).

First test was done on 4.2.19.3 firmware, next three were done on 4.2.18 firmware.

Test #1 was done at default Photonia exposure (12sec), Tests #2 through #4 were done at 9s exposure adjusting according to exposure test.

Regarding filtering IPA, I’ve let my closed container sit for a few days on a window deal with some sun some cloud coverage. I’ve noticed next to no accumulation on the bottom of the container other than a slight sludge, very slight. I’ve used this container to filter 10-15 prints. Since I didn’t get much, is it just not dirty enough yet? It sure is cloudy.

Is transparent or opaque resin harder to work with? I've had pretty good results with clear resin. One problem I've heard of with opaque resin is that models MUST be hollowed plus drain holes or liquid resin will be trapped inside.

But with clear resin this never has happened to me. I don't like hollowing my models most of time so is that weakness in opaque resin actually true?

I'm asking because even tho I've had the printer for a year I've ONLY used clear resins.

Does anyone know how to make transparent resin opaque? I bought some Monocure resin at a good price but I am getting low XY resolution due to light bleed (I think) Does anyone know how to make transparent resin opaque?
