I will not be sharing any more details about the electrics, and do not recommend you try this yourself.
Prusa Research gave me the Prusa XL 3D printer, with no contract to advertise or promote it. I think it's great however, so I'm choosing to link you to it!
Printer: Original Prusa XL https://www.prusa3d.com/product/original-prusa-xl-assembled-single-toolhead-3d-printer/
I do *not* recommend my bike, it's a Vanmoof S2.
