EDIT NOTICE: I accidentally wrote "A1 Mini" in the meme instead of just "A1" out of habit. There's no proof for the Mini to also be affected yet. My bad, sorry. It's the A1 that might burn your house down.

3-Panel meme. First: Guy coming through the door with a new 3D printer in hand, happily announcing "I bought the 3D printer I saw on Youtube!". Second: Same shot but his happy face turned upside down in shock. Third: Shit of the whole room with him still in the doorframe. It's a mess, shit is on fire, someone is reanimated on the right. Caption: "Bambu Lab Breaking the Law", "A1 Mini going up in flames" and "Community up in arms".

I just received the A1 for a birthday gift. I’m hoping it was manufactured after Q3 2025:

Bambu Lab stated: After reviewing field data, we determined the benefits of NTC-based inrush protection were outweighed by potential downsides under rare surge conditions. As a result, we implemented a design change in Q3 2025 to remove the PTC from the circuit.

    Fuck, I have one from 2024 that's been sitting in a box until I had the time to get into 3d printing (like yours, it was a gift). Guess I need to buy a fire fighting ball thing for it when I finally get it set up.

    Man, with this news you may wanna sell it and buy another model/brand before getting into it.
