[T] Octopus Pro Price

A project log for SecSavr Sublime [gd0036]

An FDM 3D printer that I described as "The FULL Coverage, Extended X, Pro Max, Ultramatrix Solution".

The price of the Octopus Pro has been steadily increasing while other boards with 8 steppers have had a somewhat fixed price. Now I'm wondering if I should consider the £6 more expensive Mellow Super Infinity which has WiFi (that I won't use), more fans (that I probably won't need), more hotends (though I could probably get by with 4) and a larger footprint (which I don't want) or if I should just cut the Vmotor pins of the stepper drivers and solder a 50V or 63V capacitor with power leads on the Monster8 or other 24V only board.
