My 5 cents: 6 months now with a Duet3 & RPi3. It is powered by a Meanwell 5V 2.5A with a good cable (3A capable). Have good SD card and proper cooling - no worries whatsoever. Oh, it is a Debian box (minimal) only with duet packages. It takes 30sec to boot. Do not even bother to clean shutdown.

RE: Stop print when PWM fan failsposted in General Discussion
@Veti Thanks!
My thoughts were to understand if someone already had made it.
I will pursue that route. When I will get it working I'll post the code for reference.
I have on my roadmap to include the magnetic filament sensor. This project is independent of that and both will work simultaneously.

Stop print when PWM fan failsposted in General Discussion
It is the second time I have a failed extruder fan and the hole thing overheats and blocks the extruder. Well, with my duet 3 it is the first time.
Is it possible to have a PWM fan for the extruder and monitor its RPM in order to stop print if it fails a threshold?
Thanks.

Duet 3 controlled by PS3 remote via bluetoothposted in DSF Development
I've managed to connect a PS3 to the raspberry Pi, which is connected to my Duet 3 board.
Features:
- Python 3 code (using evdev and pydsfapi libraries);
- It uses all buttons to address direct GCODE commands or launch macros;
- It also converts sticker events into GCODE moves. How much you push the sticker, the greater the move is.
Limitations so far:
- Simple code as I am not a professional coder/developer;
- Not yet controlled code when PS3 controller shutsdown;
- For the stickers, it only does one move per axis - no multiple axis moves.
I am either available to provide the code for you guys make a plugin or code the plugin myself.
Here you have a test run.
