30 Jan 2026 - Bambu Printer hardware ideas

 The P1S has lighting for the interior but it is not as bright as I would like, I have found the following site ;

This has some interesting hardware options for the P1S.

25 Jan 2026 - Bambu Labs Printer - P1S Combo

 Considering getting a Bambu P1S Combo.  The cost is very good.  It has 4 color to 16 color capability.  It doesn't have a quick change nozzle system but that can be resolved by after market hardware.  The printer is capable of printing a variety of Polycarbonate filaments and nylon filaments.  It prints PLA with exceptional quality and PETG quality is very good as well.

The AMS unit from Bambu does not have the ability to dry filaments.  There are two after market solutions that are available; Eibos Tetras & Sunlu AMS upgrade.

 Also will need surge protection hardware and or UPS just for the printer.  Currently using APC Back-UPS 1500 for other systems and it works quite well

 The aftermarket solutions for a quick change system are as follows;

BIQU - Panda REVO for the P1S/X1C - $ 129

Slice Engineering - MAKO nozzle system for P1S - $ 129

 MicroSwiss -  FlowTech Hotend P1S - Comes with 1 nozzle .4mm and hotend assembly - $ 75
