I have several Raspberry Pis running at home, one of which is acting as a network file server and is connected to a 2TB drive. I tried using an old Raspberry Pi 2+ as an Octoprint server for my 3D printer, but that didn't quite work for me. It worked fine until I added a few plugins that were too stuck for the purpose. I decided to upgrade so my Ender 5 3D printer could be remote controlled, so I went to Revain to find a Pi 3 that wasn't too expensive. I chose the Loverpi Raspberry Pi 3 B+ as it was reasonably priced and I didn't need a case or power supply for my purpose. The included heatsinks were also a nice plus. I got the Pi, attached it to heatsinks, put my Octoprint system on a micro SD card, plugged in the camera and power bank and booted. The new Pi boots much faster. than the old one, and in about a minute I was able to connect to the Octoprint web server and connect to my Ender 5 printer. I activated all my plugins and was pleased to find that everything worked well and was responsive. I am very happy with the versatility of the Raspberry Pi powered Octoprint server to upload, process and monitor my print jobs. Now I can check everything remotely and stop failed prints if necessary. Loverpi is a great little Raspberry Pi kit and I'm glad I bought it.
