ANYCUBIC Resin Vat for Photon Mono/Ultra/D2 - 2 Pack

In this review the focus is on a practical spare resin vat for resin SLA and DLP hobbyists and small-shop users. The ANYCUBIC 2PCS plastic vat is aimed at owners of the Photon Mono, Photon Mono 4K and compatible DLP machines like the Photon Ultra and Photon D2 who want a quick way to swap colors or keep a ready spare. Its biggest selling point is the pre installed release film and an inclined pour port that reduces mess when returning resin to a bottle, making it a simple, usable replacement rather than a precision aftermarket component.

Key Features

• Pre installed release film: The integrated film arrives fitted so replacements are quick and require no cutting, saving time and reducing handling errors.
• Two tanks in one pack: Including 2 resin vats lets users switch colors or keep a backup tank ready to minimize downtime between prints.
• Visible scale lines: The tank is marked from 140 ml to the maximum fill level so users can avoid overfilling and estimate resin usage.
• Inclined pour port: The angled port design is intended to reduce spills and make it easier to pour remaining resin back into bottles without drips.
• Tool-free film change: Release film replacement is done by unscrewing the bottom screw and aligning the film, allowing maintenance without drilling or cutting.

Who It's For

This vat is best for hobbyists and small studios running ANYCUBIC Photon Mono or compatible DLP printers who value convenience and quick color changes. If someone prints a variety of resins or colors and needs a ready spare to swap in mid-session, the two-pack and the pre fitted release film make workflow easier.

Those who demand highest-end precision materials or who need factory-grade, professional OEM traceability for industrial production should look elsewhere. The product is a practical replacement part, not a specialty engineered vat for critical production tolerances.

Pros & Cons
