Product Review: Maker Farm i3 Prusa 8"

[MeoWorks]

Nice discovery. I have a thought though, theoretically if the motors are working harder (due to print speed) with the combination of the tight belts, extruder gears, z axis weight etc, wouldn't they require a higher voltage than specified?

Doubt it,
The voltage your giving it, is the recommendation from the factory, Aka its what it needs to work properly,
When its more then * torque as power goes it will just not work, and you would need a stronger stepper motor.
