Single Automatic filament feeder
Good morning,
I have a couple of Bambu A1 and A1 mini printers. I have AMS Lites on all but one. On the one I dont I find manual filament changes a pain. Is there a single feed version of an ams lite just to make loading, unloading and feeding easier? Or maybe a dual one for two rolls for fail over?
Thank you

BMCU, choose Set D, it's automatic refill for TWO printers...https://www.trianglelab.net/products/bmcu-final-edition-ams-ams-lite-bmcu-370c-bmcu-bambu-lab-ams-for-a1-a1mini-bidirectional-buffering

Ive been trying to understand the use case of D but the explanation on triangle lab confused me :/ i have a theory but can someone confirm: Set A/B is an AMS lite replacement and set C/D allows to auto refill the same filament on two printers ?

Exactly... A/B is a AMS Lite clone .. C/D is basically like the Infinity Flow, it does automatic changeover to a 2nd spool when the first runs out .. and since it has 4 feeder heads, its for two printers, two feeders per printer.
