BIQU PopStatus Desktop Case

A desktop case for the BIQU PopStatus Status Indicator for the Snapmaker U1.

The status indicator works anywhere as long as it is on the same LAN as the printer so I designed a desktop case for the light bar. There might even be room inside for a 18650 battery and a step-up converter if you want to forego the USB cable.

Thanks for sharing!
Did I miss it?- Where is the manual for setting it up?

Setting up the PopStatus, you mean? Yeah I scratched my head a bit as well. No documentation! :grimacing:

The led bar creates its own wifi hotspot when it is powered on. I had to google to find a guide:

Do let me know if you need more help and I’ll happily assist in any way I can.

Ooh nice! I did not know that project existed!

The BIQU was on sale so it was an easy buy but this is an exiting option as well.

I took it to next leveL

  • Green status bar that matches the progress
  • Finish sequence
  • Orange candle like animation during pre-print stage or general heat up
  • Also additional error and pause state

My bar follows the whole top cover, from front to back. lol

How much was Biqu one for?

37 USD.

Nice installation. Even if I still find a LED status bar more useful when it is not on the actual printer. :blush:
