Thanks for the great feedback. Bed PID was inadvertantly not turned back on during the process of upgrading firmware to a newer upstream base. That is already fixed in the next release of Firmware for the Mini (codename Gladiola) which is under active development right now.

On the case/electronics fan, yes this is a side effect of having to support two different types of fans. My apologies on the noise, but you can certainly keep using the older firmware (unless you get a newer toolhead or have it refurbished).

Nick - Thanks for the update.

By “next release of Firmware for the Mini (codename Gladiola)”, I assume you are referring to the Marlin 1.1 RC branch for Gladiola? I see the commit there for PIDTEMPBED at 1:01PM today so that’s great.

Looking forward to your release of the Marlin 1.1 branch, lots of good changes, but sure hope I’ll be able to grab the source and easily reconfigure/recompile to work well with the “old” fan in my “old” Mini (circa December, 2015). While the solution you guys have used to accommodate both fan types with one firmware build “works”, having the case fan ROAR during operation on last year’s mini makes it unusable in my opinion.

Hmmmm… I suppose I should have posted a followup to that 14-month old post, to say… It was, in fact, easy to change/recompile the firmware with slower electronics fan speed for my “old” mini. I also added a secondary cleaning sequence to the “re-wipe” code (i.e., the part called to re-wipe the toolhead if the initial probing fails) to clean off the fibers left from the stock cleaning pad – more info about that here.
