If you can’t get a Raspberry Pi, then these products might be for you. Bigtreetech has released a Raspberry Pi 4B substitute: the CB1. To go with it, two mainboards: the Manta M4P and M8P. The CB1 can be used to run Octoprint or Klipper, with the Manta mainboard being designed specially for Klipper. Based on my testing, this is quite promising and most importantly more available than pi. If the CB1 becomes more popular and ready to go SD card images are created for things like Octoprint, it will become immensely more viable. These boards were provided to me free of charge for the purpose of making this video by Bigtreetech in accordance with my review policy. All opinions expressed are my own.
