I upgrade this Ender 2 Pro to have similar parts and features to an Ender 3 S1 Pro. Having a direct drive takes this machine to the next level. But stay tuned for the next video where I'll be going even further to make this the best tiny printer. I will be upgrading this with a CHT Nozzle and some silent fans soon.
Also I take a critical look at the wiring harness provided in the Sprite Pro Upgrade Kit. There are some worrying things in there. I think you can also use this kit to upgrade the Ender 3, Ender 3 Pro, Ender 3 V2, Ender 3 NEO, Ender 3 NEO MAX, and more.
If I put a CR-touch on here, I would place this somewhere in-between a Prusa Mini and a Prusa I3MK3S in terms of capabilities, and still about half the price of the mini, and 1/4th the price of the I3.
