Hopefully this overview forces Creality to acknowledge the issues with the Creality CR-6 SE leveling free 3d printer. ## Update 2021-07-17 from Creality According to Creality all issues should be resolved in the newer models: > Here are the improvements we did as below: > 1, remove the step-down IC, from 24 V to 12 V. > After many times verified, There is no difference from 24 V. > 2, use new motherboard, from the design aspect, remove the buck IC, better circuit design. > 3, the fuse is the self-recovery fuse, the principle is to absorb current, but easy to cause smoke. > After experimental evidence, 0 Ω resistance can play the same role, and will not smoke. > 4, increase the PVC sheet, insulating tape, etc., the purpose to block the hot bed bare position, to prevent the circuit > conductivity. > 5, Remove the ground wire and organize the circuit conduction. > They've also been sending some kits to some users so they can fix the issue on their own printer. ## Power switch failure The [power switch fails](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ufTQ6D0oK0&feature=youtu.be).

Secondly, [this has already been a horribly handled Kickstarter](https://damsteen.nl/blog/2020/08/29/3d-printers-incoming). Creality has been either dishonest about shipping ("express shipping" "we will ramp up production to three shipments per week") or has switched their decisions multiple times ("no sorry, we ship by top countries first, oh and we forgot to mention that add-ons orders will be shipped last"). If you live in Europe or Australia, and ordered add-ons, that means you're at the back of the line when it comes to shipping. Those printers are now (mid-September) being shipped. With shipping times being over 40 days, imagine receiving your printer at the end of October, only to have it go up in a puff of smoke. -
