I will follow the compatibility part on github. I was wondering for 6 pin model after i saw this video on youtube. https://youtu.be/XDQdpYJrET0
Thanks!
Ouch sorry, that was a slip. Yes, Quicko has 6 pin, while KSGER 5.
That's my station indeed
All are similar in the real world.
But I prefer Quicko due better power supply design, ok-ish quality analog parts (amplifier, analog frontend). Overall, better design.
Also the display is SPI and it's connected to the dedicated hardware pins in the STM32, making it much, much faster, while barely needing CPU power.
KSGER v3.1 also has SPI display connected to the hardware pins.
KSGER v2.1 uses I2C (much slower), and not connected to dedicated hardware (even more slower and taking a lot of CPU power).
Ksgers in general tried to save as much as possible in parts, some people have stability issues with theirs.
But also there a lot of KSGER users happy.
If the price is close, I'd go for the Quicko. But let others share their experience.
I tried a build with the debug screen, but it looked like the attached photo.
The debug screens are fixed! The space is really tight there.
I found something in the internal PID settings: "PID.minI = -50;"
I think, since the heater can't cool down actively, there's no sense in setting a negative factor.
I set that value to 0 and now it reacts much faster when the temperature falls down.
Both tips (BC3,D24) are doing great with these PID values: 52-25-14 (I set this by default now).
The PID values are stored in the profile data upon initialization, so flashing the firmware won't change them if the profile already exists.
In that case, the profile must be resetted form the settings menu.
