I hesitated on a using ceiling tile because I wasn&#039;t sure if the binder would slowly char. Did you need to tweak the heater feedback settings?</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>I was specifically thinking of the Press, this being the Press forum and all. I see the heat bed is stamped &quot;24V 90W&quot;. I don&#039;t know what temperature they measure 90W at. Assuming they use metal as the heating element, you&#039;ll see the highest power at the lowest temperature, so the wattage is probably specified at room temp.</p><p>Anyhow, 90W @ 24V works out to 6.4 ohms.</p>]]></content>
