Works incredibly well for the price, prints PETG like a champ

It cost less than twenty dollars in one day shipping. It contains a number of parts. I converted my Wanhao Duplicator I3 Plus to use this V6 with an adapter I got from Thingiverse. I also had a separate 24v heater cartridge as it is used in my printer but it comes with 12v. My previous hotend was a MicroSwiss MK10 kit which worked fine for PETG but the overlap was terrible even after I had tried many mods for filament cooling. After fitting this V6 to the printer, it printed PETG very, very well at only 235 degrees (while my other hot end could only print normally at 250+). The photo shows my first print in Benchy and the end result with minimal settings. A little string of lights and that's it. Oh, and they will send you some parts too, but keep in mind that you only get a solid metal neck, which isn't even shown separately in the seller's photos, but it definitely is. The pictures show only two PTFE necks. One more thing, this hotend heats up much faster and more accurately than my original MK10. I was afraid I would destroy my printer by installing such a cheap hotend, but it turned out to be a major upgrade in the end. Another plus is that the parts (injectors etc.) are cheaper and more plentiful on the V6 than on my original MK10.
