I was building my flexystruder hexagon and I managed to snap off, and then promptly loose my thermistor for the hexagon hotend itself. I have no idea where it went. I see the 100k epcos thermistor in the store, but I think the hexagon hotend uses a different one than that.
Is the epcos unit the correct thermistor for that? or if not, do you have a stock of the other kind, and would you sell me a couple of them, either individual thermistors, or prefferably the assembled thermistor wire bundle?
It kind of isn’t really a support issue, the thermistor was fine, I dropped the mostly assembled toolhead and caught it by the thermistor wire, then managed to lose the thermistor when I went to solder it back on. I dropped it in the middle of a clean kitchen floor, with nothing for it to even possibly hide under for a 20 foot radius in any direction, and still managed to somehow lose it. I think it may have dimensionally teleported and or timeshifted. At any rate, it’s broken due to user error, not anything on the manufacturer side, so I’d rather just buy a replacement than bother them too much, but I’m not sure which one it is heh.
What I mean is give them a call and they can probably sell you a new one. Just tell them what you are looking for and they can either sell it to you or let you know where to get one.
I bought a Hex hotend before Lulzbot started selling them separately and I asked them if the one it came with (EPCOS 100K thermistor (type 1)) was the same as they supplied in the new unit and they answered " the one you have should work just fine".
If anyone is planning on getting a replacement thermistor, the Makerfarm ones are too big to fit the Hexagon Thermistor hole. Trying the other ones when they get here
It appears we have the correct thermistors, they’re just terminated (pins installed) to the length needed for the Mini, so splicing an extra 2" of wire should be straightforward.
We need to test a few to ensure they’re the right ones, but will hopefully have the two versions on the website soon.
