Questions & Answers

Geeetech A10 - what's the deal?

To figure out how to connect this to your 3D printer, use Google, Facebook, and other forums.

Is this capable of detecting brass?

Yes,

Is this a Hall Effect sensor, or something else?

ASIN: This is a Hall effect sensor, with the model number B07P1GKQRM.

Is an Anet A8 compatible with this? Is there anything I can do if that's the case?

To figure out how to connect the sensor to your 3D printer, you'll need to do some more research. Look for your printer on Google, YouTube, and Facebook pages.

Using a Monoprice Select V2 and this sensor
5/5

This inductive sensor was purchased to serve as a bed leveling sensor for my Monoprice Select V2. After updating the Marlin firmware and making a few configuration changes. I was able to get the sensor to work using the h tab. I used a 9v battery to power the Arduino Uno sensor. The sensor is powered by the input voltage (9 volts), which provides enough sensing distance for it to be placed slightly higher than the hotend nozzle (. 12mm). This setup allowed the sensor to detect the aluminum print bed by providing enough voltage to it. The detection distance increases as the sensor's input voltage increases. I'll use a voltage divider to connect the sensor to the Arduino Uno so that I can get a higher voltage through the sensor and a lower voltage to the Arduino and MKS Gen L board.

It really works
5/5

To eliminate the noisy SBC pre-drive, I installed this switch and a magnet on my RZR's shift lever. When you're in the park, use a filter. That way, it won't be turned on when you start the car or when it's in park. When it comes to de-stressing, it works every time. When the relay is in park, turn it on. I like how there's no contact, so there's no trauma from slamming the lever into park to activate a mechanical switch. I tried it with a micro switch, but it broke after only a few trips, whereas this switch has been fine for several trips.

Only 2mm will be detected
3/5

I installed it as soon as I got it, but it was a disappointment. I had to cut the wires to fit my printer, so I can't return it now. br>I needed it to detect a diameter of 4mm or greater, but it only detects 2mm. br>DO NOT BUY if your printer has a removable non-removable non-removable non-removable non-removable non-removable non-removable Like my printer, it has a metal build surface.

My collator likes it a lot
5/5

Instead of using a mechanical micro switch or an optical switch, I bought this to use as a cutoff switch for my bullet/case collator. The wiring is simple and effective.

The voltage does not drop to 0 volts
3/5

I bought two of these for a CNC project and they didn't work as a homing limit switch. It's NPN because the signal line connects to the negative wire, and it's NO because it switches when metal comes close, but the voltage does not drop to zero. It simply stays at 5 volts, which is the current I'm using. I've tried it with higher voltages, and the results are the same. Both sensors purchased yielded the same results. I am not pleased.

The voltage is stepped down
3/5

I gave it 12 volts and it gave me an 8. 5v.

Inconsistent behavior
3/5

This thing has a lot of inconsistencies. Many of my prints have failed due to the inaccuracy of the distance measurement. I have to change the Z-index on a regular basis. In order to get a good first layer, you'll need to offset it.
