Which voltage to choose: 12 V or 24 V?

The most common operating voltage of DC devices is 12 V or 24 V. Both voltages have their benefits but the most important thing is to match the 3D printer’s output voltage to that of the hotend, the extruder, fans or heatbeds. Overpowering or underpowering of the components can have serious consequences.
