I'd appreciate the views of knowledgeable SLA 3d printer users on this project on KickStarter. It seems like a great deal.

Having been bitten once by the ONO/OLO dog, I'm suspicious... at the price and performance, it seems *way* too good to be true. There's also a couple of other red flags that I'm uncertain about, so I'll keep them to myself for now.

Opinions please!

... looks like a bigger variant, compared to the common much cheaper "smartphone-display-printers" ...

Yeah, except it has a built-in UV LED panel, so uses resin cured by UV rather than visible light.

AliExpress sells the same thing (more or less) for about 4 times the price.

Lots of other people are picking apart PrintHero in the KickStarter campaign comments, so I'm satisfied it's a scam.

Stay Away!
