Estimated remaining resin in cartridge way off

Dashboard show wrong amount of resin left

It’s because there is no scale on Form3 to measure the tank’s weight, so all calculations are approximate. @Jesse_K A possible solution is for them to implement a manual scaling menu. You measure the weight of the tank and then enter that value into preform. The program would have a database of the weight of all their resin tanks and calculate the approximate resin left by the weight difference. Or let you manually enter the weight of the new tank upon unboxing.

Tank level inaccuracy causing long wait times before print

An idea I had proposed in the past was for us to be able to weight the resin cartridge, then enter that value in preform before each print. Preform would have a database with all cartridges (empty and full weight), and that would give a much closer estimate. They have implement a weight sensor in the 3L, but not on 3/3+. A cheap way of thinking in my opinion, what would be the cost of it??
