The board has two pairs of connectors for power, one labeled 11A and the other 5A, both of these pairs are 12V connections. The 11 amps pair is used to power the heated bed. The 5 amps source is used to power the board, the rest of the printer's components and the Arduino board.

Currently using a dedicated 12V / 5A power supply.

Linear Bearings come in open and close package. The closed ones have their own lubrication and no additional lubrication is needed while open ones need additional lubrication. high-viscosity PTFE filled oil (super-lube) for example shown best results here. Synthetic Gear Oil also shown very good results. On the other hand, TheGremlin recommends low viscosity lithium soap based lube when using bushings. High viscosity greases, such as axle grease, can clog up roller bearings and cause them to slide instead of rolling. This will wreak havoc on your expensive precision ground linear rods. He recommends a grease NLGI Grade 1 or 0.
