Re-deownloading didn't seem to do anything.
I just installed 7-Zip and that appears to have worked.
Windows 10 Explorer and WinRAR would throw an error when trying to extract them.
Ah...
I have used WInZip forever - never even thought to try Windows - not really surprised it didn't work.

2A steppers will be fine.
be aware that this means running the driver at 1.5A. They will need cooling at that current.
-
I saw there is a production run of these currently going through, does anyone have any insight into when these will land at retailers?

Just ordered my Duet 3 Mini 5+ from e3d online. I'm looking for somewhere in UK that has the mini 2+ expansion. E3d don't list it and their support tell me they don't stock it.
-
@Serbitar as far as I'm aware, the expansion board hasn't been released yet
-
We have started to get stock out to our resellers of the mini 2+ expansion board. I don't have an exact date of when they will be able to list them yet.
-
To answer my own question - they are available now at E3D
-
@T3P3Tony Thanks. I look forward to being able to order
-
For Europe this is an option for ordering the Mini 2+

@dc42 @T3P3Tony Hi guys, i finally received the Mini 2+ extension (took it from Dold), it was delivered to me this morning.
I have to report back however that the Mini 2+ package DOES NOT include the two plastic standoffs that are needed to mechanically mount the card on top of the Mini 5+...
-
as a workaround you can use a 12mm m2 screw and nuts.
-
@Veti yeah sure there are many WA(s) possible assuming you have material... that was NOT the point...
-
We are looking into this.
-
@oc_geek thanks for bringing this to our attention. We had planned on including these with the Mainboard connector packs but have now reassessed that plan.
We are sending connector packs for the mini 2+ to our resellers. Some will go today, some will go on Monday (to resellers who have already had mini 2+ sent to them). From when the resellers get these going forward will mini 2+ boards will be sent with connector packs.
-
@T3P3Tony sounds a good plan for who has yet to order the Mini 2+ ... but what about who (like me) have received it WITHOUT those ? ....
-
@oc_geek we will ask the resellers to send out to all customers that have already had one!
-
Is there a UK site which will allow me to pre-order a Duet 3 mini 5+?
The E3D site doesn't seem to allow pre-ordering, (or am I missing something)(else!)
Cheers,
Dafydd
