        <title>Bed doesn&amp;#039;t heat without lamp over it</title>
        <description> The bed on my prusa i3 doesn&#039;t hold it&#039;s temp at 110 degrees C once the print has started. I have a reading lamp over it while heating up to help it heat faster but when I take it off the temp starts to drop. It can&#039;t hold it&#039;s temp without help from a reading lamp. I can&#039;t have it over the bed during the print because it would hit and bump into the print. The bed hovers around 90 degrees but doesn&#039;t stay at the target 110. Thanks</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ You know how it has 3 inputs and it says for 12 volts port 1 needs to be positive and 2 and 3 need to be negative. I did all of that and checked it. No, it isn't insulated.]]></description>
