Elegoo Saturn 2 3D 8K 28 micron Resin Printer [HONEST REVIEW]

[@crazylegsmurphy]

Questions I still have: 1. They claim a new type of lamp / screen. Does this actually make a difference than the Saturn. For example, are the days of seeing grid lines in prints gone? 2. They claim it has a scratch proof glass to avoid damaging the screen during spills and scratches. But, is this glass attached to the LCD? Can it be replaced? Does it actually stop resin from getting on the LCD? Does it negate the need for aftermarket screen protectors? 3. Are there any print issues like with the line through prints on the Saturn? 4. Has the vat design changed in any way to aid in pouring out resin, changing the FEP, or seeing how much resin is still left? 5. What is the difference between 8K and 4K resin and what happens if you print in 4K resin? 6. Are any of the issues with the Saturn present in the Saturn 2? For example, the tendency for the vat screws to become stuck or sheer off. Does the light still get stuck on.

[@jtrain9926]

Re #2 it's a thin glass cover held down with tape around the edges. Should stop small spills. It replaces the cell phone screen protector deal. It's pretty easy to remove from other reviews I watched

[@SILVERF0X13]

I might be able to help at least a little with the first question. The fesnel lens is used to collumate the light which is a fancy way of saying make all of it point straight up, which should eliminate any bleeding that I've heard can occasionally occur near edges. In practice, I have no idea obviously since I don't own one yet. I did pre-order one as my first 3d printer though. I'd be hard pressed to upgrade to it from an original if I already had one though unless I needed the increased print volume.

[@michaelpierson982]

Been waiting to pull the trigger on 8K. Wanted a Phrozen but 300 shipping. Naw. Not going to lie, bought it yesterday and was hesitant because I didn't see a review from you on it yet. I am now relieved but cautiously concerned because the price is right, the arrival time is on point, AND you gave it a shinning review...which mean mine will be junk and give me headaches when I get it.

[@DS-pk4eh]

So, what are your first impressions? Did you print something and how that turned out? Thanks

[@herculeholmes504]

I only bought my first printer - an Elegoo Mars 3 - two months ago, but when I saw the specs of the Saturn 2 and the price - £435 on pre-order - I couldn't resist it. Honestly, I've only just got started in 3D printing but I couldn't say no to the Saturn 2, it looks bloody terrific. Talk about impulse buying.

[@etapollo13]

I got my first printer, a Mars 3 in December, and now i 100% know what my next printer will be. I don't think I'll be able to jump on pre-orders unfortunately, but I should be good to snap one up this fall. Can't wait!

[@treposey4107]

Same here. Except I bought a cheap 2k pro 2 🤣🤣 talk about an upgrade. Now I'm shopping for a 4k to completely replace the 2 pro. May go with the Mars 3

[@AvengerDK]

Nice review. This one seems hard to beat. I think you should start to add the running cost in the reviews of these resin printers. It's a huge part of picking the right printer imo. This one seems to have a new screen for €100 where other (lets not mention the name) have a MEGA ;) price of €470. With all these new printers coming out, it's nice to know what replacement parts costs.

[@Shadowknightneo]

Absolutely!! Also maybe the average power / wattage per hour as with prices always rising would be nice to see if it is energy efficient as well!

[@FranklyWry]

I just read about the phrozen mighty 8k, which costs $900, but other than superior connectivity, has less volme, no purifier, etc. Btw, glad to see you make another stellar review, Geoff, Pal across the Pond.😀

[@C-M-E]

Now that my print room is up to sustained printing temps unassisted, time to start looking at upgrade machines! Third party info on Anycubic's new 12K is pretty much unobtanium which has me slightly concerned, though with my lackluster experience with their FDM machines in the past, it'd take a spectacular miracle to get me to trust them again. This was second on my list before stepping up to large format, though the massive reduction in print speed on 12" and up printers (aside from voluminous resin consumption) has me at the upper end of the mid-size once again. Looks like a solid machine coming from you!

Does the air purifier actually get rid of all the harmful fumes and particles or do you still need a strong ventilation system/encasement?

[@colincampbell3679]

I just ordered the Saturn 2, this be my 1st resin printer.. yes I know it is a big beast But no point I see of paying allot of money that the smaller ones cost, I may as well have a bigger one to start with since I would have to upgrade to a big one soon after having brought the smaller one any way? This way I got the big one at a great price as this week is Black Friday sales I went on to Amazon UK and Ebay UK and their sale prices were still high at around £560. So I looked at the Elegoo site and found their own Black Friday sale was far better even when you allow for the exchange rate. They had it for $550 which was 6% off then the sale of Black Friday took another $50 off So I got for £438.00p A real deal. The Printer be coming around the 1st of December 2022 from a UK warehouse it seems. So I ordered on Amazon some rubber mats and tools and metal re-usable resin strainer with a fold-able silicone funnel and re-usable washable carbon face masks. I already have the gloves The only thing I have to get later is the Resin as in the UK it is pricey even the lower ones. I am setting up a better worktop area in the spare room where I have 3 FDM printers and a 4th one be there later on. I have room to have two worktops so the resin can go on it's own side. I really looking forward to having the Saturn 2 working.

I designed a gold silk rock like base in Tinker Cad for it and managed to print a sign in two colours ( white base & red letters ) saying T-Rex Warning Teeth Are Sharp. and yes they sure are. and a rod in clear PETG for the middle to hold up the skull so the light can be seen better around it. So guess what I going to print on the Saturn 2? ( the same skull in blue ) of course. 😁

[@pascalcluselaud1804]

Hi, I just bought the elegoo saturn 2 Resin printer (I'm new to resin printing). I wanted to print the test file of the two towers (In the usb key) When I was looking and browsing the files of the usb key provided with the printer I saw a file named: SATURN 2 Machine parameters20220831 in g-code extension. Believing that it was a parameter to install to adjust the printer, I runed it and then it says that the printing was done (the printer didn't moved) After that I printed the two towers and everything went well and the towers quality is very good. Did you manage to read the file content and if yes do you know what it does to the printer. I also opened it into a text editor and I don't understand nothing. Thank you for your return

I'm looking to be buying my first 3d printer and it's between this and phrozen 8k mini and this one. how does phrozens 22 microns compare to elegoo Saturn 2's 28.5 ? do prints fail more often on one than the other? is the bigger build plate worth it if you mainly will be printing for miniature games?

Another great video. And, well, I'm annoyed too! I wish I'd have bought one on the early bird offer (My Mars 3 Earlybird was one of my best purchases ever). But if I know Elegoo, it won't be too long till it's available on amazon.

Yes, the plaster cover. I might personally mess around inside the electronics enclosure but I wouldn't tell other people to do it as it may void any warranty, etc.

I can't wait for the next generation of dlp printers ever since I saw your comparison between the DLP and the 8k printer accuracy. But it's been months now. The models that I intended to design and print is around 3-10mm and miniature 50mm or above. so most LCD print when the detail is that small, it tends to get blurry and hard to identify detail. I wonder if DLP will be able to change that?

[@vogman]

It's hard to say. I've asked for feedback from Elegoo but they have none for me on the DLP front. The professional machines use that technology, so low budget printers will always be chasing that goal.

[@loshan1212]

Very entertaining to watch your reviews!. You have one of the most trustworthy hands on experience with most of them. So, sir I wish to ask a comparison between, mars 3 pro, Saturn 8k, mini and mighty 8k. - Where I live, Mighty 8k: $1250, Saturn 8k: $770 and Mars 3 Pro: $350 So I wonder if the quality difference is worth the price difference? - I have a Halot Sky sitting here with me, looking forward to print very fine detailed superhero characters above 30+cm height. SO would it be wise to just get a mars 3 pro addition to my Halot SKY, to simply print finer detailed parts of the models (like heads, hands etc), or just simply selling halot sky and getting Saturn 8k (or mighty 8k) and be done with one machine? thanks a lot! Cheers

[@velikimucak1607]

I think it is a great printer as well but not perfect. As size of the printers get larger we all need autorefill option. Most of us buy bigger printer to put more smaller stuff on bigger build plate and get more object in one print and not for bigger objects to print. My self included. My problem is that my customers want full and not hollow objects and problem is when you put almost any printer to print max size full object that is not even 1/5 of print volume, just max size like yoda figurine and fill VAT to max line there is no way you will print that whole object without refilling VAT by hand. Thats when I get layer shift lines and 1 out of 3 times I have to print again and hope for the best as some of my prints are prototype object for molding and need to be perfect. That is a lot bad prints for prices of resin. I think manufacturers should make VAT volume closer to max build volume. As that is almost impossibble at least give us some option to buy and add some sort of refilling resin system to our printers if not putting one with the printer from factory. For me refilling is bigger thing then 2K/4K upgrade of the screen. I love that we are getting 8K and I will use that for cleaner prints but saturn 2 with that size without autorefill just makes m3 plus better option for me and many like me. I'm intetested in your opinion on topic of size of the print compared to VAT's max resin volume as I can't find anybody talking about that. When I ask everybody just tell me to print hollows when I go with big prints or make them smaller or pray to some higher entity when I try to add resin to VAT during printing. Adding resin to printer while it is printing is such a stupid problem to have now days

I think I'm going to hang on now until we get a model where there is an official heater either included or available as an optional extra you can buy. Is it asking too much for a system that can keep the resin mixed over longer periods too? That'd be my dream machine.

I ended up with the Elegoo Saturn 2 cause I wanted sub 30 microns, but a largeish build plate. However, the 22 microns of the Sonic 8K mini that you use for jewelry is top trumps. Do you think there's any practical difference between the 28 microns of the Sonic Mighty 8K / Saturn 2 vs. the Mini 8k? I also didn't like the odd build plate shape of the mini 8k.

@@vogman Cool. One other question about the Saturn 2, since you have one. I'm looking at the Elegoo Mercury XS wash and cure station. However, it says you need to "remove the handle" on the XS for it to fit in the washer.

dont even need to watch the video to know that my wallet will hate me..., but still rocking my photon mono x (just need to fix my screen on it after a leak)

[@vogman]

Then keep going. As long as YOU are happy with the results, that's all that really matters 😁

[@EliteMinerZMC]

@@vogman Oh absolutly agreed. its really nice to see the generational improvements from the photon to the mono x (which i owned both) and then comepetors and such pushing improvements for all companies

[@cpace123]

Never understood the title "HONES REVIEW", are you saying all your other videos are not honest?

[@vogman]

I'll ask you a question instead. Are you aware that many KZbinrs are PAID to say nice things about products? I can say HONESTLY that I don't take payments to say what I might not necessarily believe. Thus what I say is MY personal view. Others could disagree of course, but at least you know that I'm speaking without an agenda 😁

Had the thing for a week, trying to print models prototyped perfectly on my Mars2 Pro but not had one decent print out of it other than the validation matirx. Seriously thinking of fooking it off and getting 2x Mars2 Pros instead, at least they work for me.

A wifi SD card will bypass the lack of wifi, Toshiba FlashAir. You can thank me later :)

Soy de Perú y no puedo comprar :(

[@WarlockCore]

Excellent product god awful customer service, just saying

[@ashleywhitehead3710]

No wifi. No web interface. Guess I'll wait for the "pro" version. 24v on a USB port to run a fan to push air through a carbon filter. Lazy engineering.

[@vogman]

Yes, there will doubtless be a Pro 😄

I remember when this was a metal melting channel.

[@vogman]

I don't think I've ever been a metal melting channel. I've never melted metal just for the sake of it. To me there's really no point. If anything, I guess I'd call this a "Making" channel. I've made stuff in wood, foam, metal, resin, PLA. I've dabbled in chemistry, electronics, physics, and downright silliness. I've explored various ways of achieving my goals and in doing that learned new things and tried to show what I learned - for fun, entertainment and practicality. Honestly, if folks come to my channel and say, "He just melts metal," then I'm really disappointed.
