Thanks Edward-
You seem to always be discovering new suppliers that I’ve not heard of :-)
Although the Re-Arm is good to 30V, my understanding is that all the RAMPS boards are max 12V input without mods. Lulzbot’s electronics are 24V.
Do you know of any 24V ready RAMPS boards?
I’m still trying to work out if it’s overheating, or a lack of power. Cooling should be good- case has a pretty good built in fan. I’ve also improved the cooling further by removing the heatsinks. Definitely a case of a little knowledge being dangerous: I put the heatsink ON the chip. The type of chip package used on Rambo is thermally connected to the copper on the PCB, so the heatsink should go on the back of the board!
But due to the digipot issue on my RAMBO I couldn’t adjust Vref. But last night I managed to successfully bodge on a physical potentiometer, and can now adjust Vref for Y. With luck I’ll now be able to figure out if it’s overheating or a lack of current causing the layer shifts, or something mechanical that I’ve failed to spot.
Re EEPROM, I’ve disabled reading/writing settings to EEPROM in my build of Marlin, specifically to ensure I’m using the settings I’ve got in the code.
Glad to hear you’re happy with both the Duet & the Azteeg boards; I still have dreams of building something exotic for fun that would need the 32 bit horsepower- eg COREXYUV ;-) But I think my next experiment will be to try Klipper- generates all the step timings on a PC and sends these to the printer.

Good to know re the micro power supply, but I didn’t read beyond the need to change the polyfuse for heated bed that also needs to be changed, ref https://reprap.org/wiki/RAMPS_24v
Maybe check the rating on your polyfuse- I just checked my spare ramps board and it definitely has the 16V rated polyfuse. But some more googling leads to this thread https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?219,433454 that suggests car fuses… which I should be able to get easily.
Hmmm… I think you’ve sold at least one Re-Arm :-)
Send me some pics when you’re finished with your machine- I know it’ll be interesting!
Thanks-
Julian

I got an email from Filastruder- they have a sale on Duets at the moment (if you can’t find something locally)
