    CandCNC Bladerunner and OHMIC

    I have seen CandCNC's feathertouch system to use OHMIC. How come I couldn't just connect a wire from the Z home limit to the OHMIC clip and the other side of the limit to ground. Then the tip will ground on the plate and set the height.

    Because the current would go through the wire and destroy the control box. Without optoisolation you will be drawing current.
