  1. Thank you for the reply. I did contact a few and checked on ultimaker's website site for reseller. But unfortunately most of the USA resellers the oldest model they still have parts for is the Ultimaker 3, outside some random home-brew parts for the 2 and 2+ like an enclosure pieces. While I've checked places like mouser and digi-key and their lead time and prices are a little too steep at the moment when you include shipping and tariff charges for the part. The only place I did find one they wanted something like 300 USD for the power brick alone. Which I feel is way too much for just a power brick and considering how old the printer is to justify the expense.
  2. Hello, I was wondering where / if it possible to still purchase a GST220A24-R7B power brick for my Ultimaker 2+ Ext. I feel a little weary of the places that been suggested like amazon and/or ebay, as allot of the listings on these sites I feel dont give the basic needed information or have red flags to me. What I mean by red flags is on amazon, when I go to the seller info page is just a bunch of random Chinese characters or a bunch of garbage like someone's cat decided to roll around on their keyboard. The other thing is pictures of the item and listing seem cut and paste or certain markings on the power supply looks to be scrapped off or blurred. They are missing numbers in the model number, input and output. Thanks for any help
  3. Finally got around to testing out the printer with tinker marlin, it worked as it did not reset anytime during a 7 hr test print. I am going to assume it was the power consumption. I know it could be seen as a bandaid fix to just keep using tinker marlin over buying a new power brick. But, it works for my finances atm over having it just sit unused in my work area. thanks again for the recommendations
  4. thank you for the replies, once I have some time I will test the options you outlined. Thank you again for the reply.
  5. Hello, I was wondering if anyone help me try and figure out a problem. I am having random resets of my 2+ ext at weird times. Sometime during the start up phases of a print and sometimes X amt of hrs into it causing it to fail. Have tried different files to see if it was something to do with the files. No luck, along with heating the bed and nozzle up separately to see if one of them causes the same issue. Again no luck. It hard to replicate when it does reset due to it happening at different times but the two mention times are the most common. I have also explored the option maybe it was the power outlet I had it attached to, but have relocated it to a different plug and tested the original plug for any faults. It had been working fine till after I took the feeder motor off to do some daily maintenance on it due to filament dust was mixing with the grease, thus why I took it apart and cleared the caked up gunk and relubed the gears. Short of taking it apart to get to the board underneath other test or avenues I need to explore.
