Thank you! I did a bit of searching around this topic the other day and found out about the power budget settings, Hopefully I can get this thing to work today :)

Hi everyone, I've just been building the Mark2 upgrade for our Ultimaker 2 Extended at work, and it's all gone together smoothly... however, I am having a rather fatal error. Other than the bowden tube causing too much tension and popping the second head off the magnets (I'll re-position the feeder and see what works best), I've been having the UM2 crash while printing... First it would simply crash upon heating, and would never actually get to the printing (wasn't able to print the calibration print) but after trying different versions of the firmware I found one that works. So I managed to print the calibration print, but when I tried it again (after setting the correct offset) it crashed midway through... The LED strip on the UM2 flickers a lot while its printing, so I feel like it's a power issue? Maybe the printer is needing to draw more power, but it can't and so crashes? I'm printing in ABS if that helps... so the temperatures are a bit higher than PLA I realise as I type that this may be the case... Anyone know of this problem?
