Review on J Head Extruder πŸ–¨οΈ Parts - 1.75mm Filament Printer by John Floyd

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works well but requires a lot of effort to install

While it's not 100% jam free and I've had some jams due to filament remaining inside after printing, I've since figured it out and started removing the filament after each print. My real problem with this product is the installation. A friend of mine who also owns a 3D printer said when he bought this product it came with easy to use connectors that plugged directly into the printer's motherboard. However, when I ordered it, only a few cables were included. I then had to invite that same friend over for my lesson to spend about an hour and a half meticulously soldering, cutting and reconnecting the wires to the motherboard. Also I asked him to print the body for this nozzle on his printer as you need a special body to even fit in the printer and still it looks very homemade and crappy compared to the stock printer. The main thing is that it doesn't get stuck when printing. So if you're unfortunate enough to get plain wires like me with no connectors, and you have the patience and electrical skills to wire them up, I'd recommend this, otherwise don't even bother.

Pros
  • βœ” INDUSTRIAL QUALITY CHIPS SET: Provides more accurate and faster printing. Protected by safety features such as over-current protection, overload protection, over-temperature protection, pre-temperature alarm.
Cons
