Is there sufficient energy storage to cope with the variability of solar as the majority of the supply? Maybe it doesn't matter too much with enough coverage.

It's from the wiki, one of the pictures in the article on 3D printer cleaning after laser usage IIRC.

I think you probably made the right decision anyway. Its a beast as a dedicated 3D printer. Get a laser machine if you want a laser machine.

Most companies will want to control something that they're paying for and keep it secret to have a hold on the market. On that basis I think it's unlikely to happen.

Well i think the most obvious is that you arent going to be printing large ABS things on a mini. It won't fit and will warp.

If you over simplify the question, then you over simplify the answer. There is more to a printer than just print quality, which arguably has been easy AF for a while now.
