Purchase advice - small business

Hi team,

I've been out of the loop on the state of market for a couple of years. My Saturn 8K's screen failed earlier this week, and I'm looking to upgrade once more.

Context: I run a small market stall printing larger models (think dragons). Looking to produce constantly over the next few months til the end of January. I print exclusively with one type/colour of resin.

Requirements:

1. Build volume comparable to my Saturn 8K (219 x 123 x 210 mm).

2. High repeatability/low maintenance. I will be printing many multiples of the same prints.

3. Able to function in freezing environments. Currently I use a belt heater for my winter prints, would like to do away with this.

4. Budget approximately $650 USD.

My present workflow is to slice in Lychee and verify/correct pixels with UVTools. Is this still the way to go?
