SV08 QGL drives me insane: Works like a dream for weeks, then randomly goes completely nuts

I need to vent, but I also desperately need help before I throw this machine out the window.

Without touching or changing a single setting, my Sovol SV08 goes from being an absolute masterpiece to absolute trash overnight.

Here is what happens:

Out of nowhere, it randomly fails Quad Gantry Leveling (QGL).

The gantry gets completely thrown off, wildly unlevel, and the toolhead loses its mind trying to figure out where it is.

I manually level all 4 corners to ~1mm off the bed to reset it. Try again... fails again.

I repeat this endless manual-alignment ritual a bunch of times, failing repeatedly, until suddenly—for no apparent reason—it just decides to work.

Once it works, I can print flawlessly for 1 or 2 weeks straight with zero issues. Then, out of the blue, the nightmare starts all over again.

Print have Mainline Klipper and Zero Toolhead.

Has anyone dealt with this kind of random, intermittent QGL failure on the SV08? If you have any tips on how to prevent or fix this issue permanently, I would hugely appreciate it. I'm losing my mind here!

MetalFish Flex 500/600W Schematic / Pinout - Helpful for power button & 3x 12V rails (40CU mod)

Hey everyone!

​

I wanted to share the wiring schematic/pinout for the MetalFish Flex 500/600W power supply. It might be floating around the web somewhere, but I personally couldn't find it anywhere after searching quite a bit. Luckily, MetalFish customer support was kind enough to send it over.

​

This came in clutch for my build—it worked flawlessly for wiring up the power button and routing the three 12V inputs recommended to successfully unlock the 40CUs.

​

Hopefully, this saves some headache for anyone else doing custom wiring, SFF builds, or hardware mods with this PSU. If anyone has any questions or needs a hand figuring it out, feel free to drop a comment and I'll gladly help you out!

Hi everyone,

​I'm running a BC250 board with Bazzite. I need to connect it to my TV via DisplayPort to HDMI.

​Since my TV’s audio jack is already in use, I need a solution where HDR and HDMI Audio work perfectly without glitches or dropouts.

​Has anyone found a specific active adapter or cable that works reliably with this board and Bazzite?

​Thanks! ❤️
