    At the end of the day, it comes down to personal preference, if you prefer Tilt that's great, there's a separate thread here for Tilt. This thread is for iSpindel, so remember Ghostbusters 101 and "never cross the beams". ;)

    Yeah, the basic design of all automobiles were copied from the model T Ford, doesn't make it a copyright violation though. But the point is iSpindel don't actually sell anything, so their not out there trying to profit from Baron Brewing (who hold a patent for a product quite dissimilar to the...

    I 3D printed the sleds for mine in different colours, and the coding is irrelevant because I feed mine into my BrewPi server. Lol, that's a good one, but in actual fact it's no different. If I find a craft beer I like and imitate the recipe for my own personal use I'm not impacting anyone's...

    Yeah fair point, but for me needing six of them it was a choice between $1,200 for Tilts or build my own for a quarter of the price. Same thing could be said about brewing, you can make a keg of craft beer for $50 or you can pay a manufacturer $80 for a carton that works out of the box ;) But...

    Hi there, Thanks for posting the link to the soldering guide! I've also decided to go down the diode path and already ordered all my parts, I'm just wordering if you could post a pic of the correct diode placement as I'm not too sure looking at the guide? Appreciate your time! Cheers, Kal
