TVBV321-KIT
Thermalvatband is 32 inches by 1 inch (81.28 centimeters) with a connection bay and a 3-inch (2.5-centimeter) wide magnetic contact point with a 78-inch (2-meter) cable female jack connection. It includes a power adapter that can be used with a splitter. The connection point to the VATBAND is also magnetic to assure a good contact with the 560-degree pivotal head and has an LED light to indicate power. We will also provide a cable docking bay to ensure that the cable remains static in its position when the VAT is removed and that the contact remains in the same position when returned to the 3D printer; the cable will snap into place without touching the printer.
– Includes an accessory pack (sticker over the VATBAND and an extra sticker for the thermostat (aluminum tape), a thermometer, and a scuff pad to clean the VAT before application.
– You may have to place a 1/8-inch diameter hole in the back of your case to allow power access.
We have provided a stand to hold the magnetic cable to power your vatband adding height to match your vatband frame. ( optional ) Click to download.

Is it OK to overlap the heater band? I got a 32\” model for a mono-x and the band has 3.25\” of overlap.
-
Yes you can z-fold.
-
-
Will this work on the Anycubic Photon Mono X 6K?
-
Yes it works on Mono X 6K very similar to the Mono X see our video demostration on Mono X https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kE4xef00nI

Will you be coming out with a large band that will go on the OUTSIDE of the vat?
-
We have our latest version 32 inches long V2 quick release made to install outside. Will be out soon by 10th of January.

Hi, just had a few quick questions:
I’m curious how the thermostat works with this heater – can I set the exact temperature that I want my resin to maintain, or is the rheostat just a general control that has to be combined with manual monitoring of the temperature?
Also, is this band able to be removed and reapplied again after the cold season is over?Thanks in advance,

Ryan, the thermostat/white box on the TVB is an on/off switch. When the temperature reaches 32C/90F, it switches off until it reaches 21C/70F, at which point it turns back on. The power adapter’s changeable settings regulate the frequency of heat peaks. In other words, the higher the wattage, the quicker the heat will reset the thermostat, resulting in a significantly shorter time between 70F to 90F. The TVB is meant to be on constantly. All 3D resins printers, including those made by Formlabs, have temperature-controlled environments for good reason. Printing is faster and of higher quality, with fewer errors. This has been established on so many levels, and if you remove it even once or twice, you run the risk of disrupting the wiring within.

What are the different lengths?
All 3 sizes say 12”x1”-
Giovanni, we will have one size fits all. Our new TVB is 17 inch with 12V and 3A adjustable adapter with foldable technology to accommodate VAT size. This will be in effect as of 11-5-22

Will this fit an Elegoo Saturn 2?
-
You will recieve our latest TVB will have one size fits all. The newer version can also be folded if your TVB is too long for your VAT with a higher power adapter 3A as the standard.
-
Yes it will. Our new version is foldable you can adjust the lenght.

hello.. I bought my first 3D printer, an ELEGOO Saturn 2, and wanted to know if the big Vat has the right dimensions for this printer
-
Hi Vicky, you did recieve our latest version of TVB 18 inches versus the site is only 12 inchs. You can also fold the new TVB. I recommend you to apply masking tape and test out your ideal position on the VAT. You can apply the TVB once removing the TVB is not recomended.

I am a newbie to resin…would this be for my new Jupiter I just received? And does it include everything needed? Thank you for your time

Hi Glen, The Large kit includes TVB and adjustable power. Watch the video and also do a dry run, tape it down temporarily with scotch tape to see where you like the power wire to be at on the VAT. Generally, I like it on the corner edge. Place the cover on top making sure your wires are not in the way. Some covers come really close to the VAT. This is why I bring up the cover. Other than that its Plug and play. Make sure your VAT always has some resin in it. You can leave it on, it will self regulate the temperature no need to play with the adjustment. The adjustment decreases the heats recovery time and does not increase heat. The thermostat governs the temperature from 70F to 90F the sweet spot also known as the ideal temperature. You barely will use up electricity with the VATBAND.
-
The TVB KIT has all that you need. We do recommend a trial run with a masking tape or rubberband before you apply it permanently.

If I already have one VatBand kit, am I able to purchase just a second band to use two bands on one large resin vat without having to buy another power adapter?
-
Excellent question. Depends on the the second machine size. The larger the VAT the more heat is required, thus equals to the power consumed. I would safely say if you are not in a extreme cold weather like 50F you can easily power two vatbands with one power adapter using our splitter compfortably. Make sure when you start to drop the build plate into the vat filled with resin. To heat up the build plate and resin at the same time is key before you start printing.
-
I get that question all the time. Yes, you can do a daisey chain, take both VATBANDS and solder the the two to one wire so you can still use the female jack. I think its overkill. We do have the new 14 inch vatband use instead of the 12 inch. We will upload into the site within few days.

- 1- ThermalVATBAND
- 2- Cover sticker over ThermalVATBAND (protects/prevents from peeling caused by resin and IPA)
- 3- Thermometer sticker and aluminum tape goes over the thermostat taped down to touch the ThermalVATBAND.
- 4- Scuff pad for installaling ThermalVATBAND (use to remove any left over resin on VAT frame)
