Original ANTCLABS BLTouch V3.1 Auto Bed Leveling Sensor - BL Touch Smart Sensor for 3D Printer | Compatible with Ender 3, CR-10, Prusa | Perfect for Precise First Layer Printing & Z-axis Calibration

If you're like me, you probably cheaped out and bought the clone of the BL-Touch, the 3D-Touch. For a while, I thought I had made the right choice. The 3D-Touch wasn't very precise but it definitely worked...at least until it didn't.I finally bit the bullet and picked one of these up. I'm very glad I did. The movement of the BL-Touch probe is much snappier than the counterpart and also seems to be a tad more accurate. I'd recommend watching some video analysis of the accuracy of this probe to get a better idea.Regardless, I've had 0 issues with this probe, it even uses the same connector as my knock off so I didn't have to rewire the printer. My bed leveling process completes once during the warm up of the printer and works beautifully. My prints have the most optimal first layer I've ever seen. Often I don't even need adhesion promotion, it just works right onto the glass.A little info about my setup: Custom made i3 style printer, glass bed. I use Klipper for firmware and have a pre-print startup procedure that consists of homing, heating the bed and hot end to temperature, then leveling the bed with 5 probes at 9 points across the bed. The mesh is stored and used immediately. The key here is not to home the printer again once this process completes. All my gcode files have no homing in them. That way I hit print and it just goes. This ensures a perfect print every time.
