Nevermore Users - How often do you change your charcoal?

[Laserbea4k43]

How many print-cycles/hours do you put in before you change your pellets?

Depends what material I am printing but it's usually ASA or ABS and when that is the case I just do it every 3-6 months. But I don't know what the recommended change is.

IIRC it's something like 50 hours of print time. I probably should replace my initial batch come to think of it.

 

[Laserbea4k43]

Yeah, I guess I'm due to change mine too.

On the top of my Nevermore, it shows 150 hours or every 30 days. So, if it ran for 30 days straight, that would be 720 hours. So, replacing it somewhere between 150 and 720 print hours?

Definitely not changing every 30 days, even when I'm not using the printer.

I should change it more often but I use mine more for air circulation then anything.

Same here. But I do hang out in my garage a lot while I'm printing.

I am pretty sure that is 50 hours and 30 days. Otherwise it would be 150 hours or 130 days.

EDIT. I see I bumped a OLD post. That is what I get for signing up for the forums ages ago and never using it. didn't realize the front page posts showed stuff so old.

haha that's fine, it is 50 print hours or 30 days on air.
Many people change it by "when printer starts stinking" metric
