    Geof do you know if the stud thermistors work on the hex? If so, I'll have one to give away soon once my PT100 arrives.

    So where do you find the cartridge style 100K thermistors for replacement? Do you know of a source?

    Ahh the memories when i only had one printer. Simpler times ;)

    Done...when I get things transferred over it will be yours. I'll be getting a new block so I will send that over as well.

    BTW...I had to read that a few times...my cold is getting worse and I totally took that the wrong way at first. HAHA!

    Ok. So I wonder if you just got some of these https://amzn.com/B0150YLX9C (or similar on Amazon) if you could put it into the cartridge?

    I tried that once...it leaked....terribly. @danzca6 /Stud I'll try to remember to send you some photos and measurements on that thermistor. I think I tried 4 or 5 different ways but eventually decided to just get them from Robo (typically they will send them for free just because)

    @Luis Alberto if you send me a message with your ship to address I can send you one.

    When I broke mine in a very similar incident as yours, I contacted Robo and they sent me 3 right away. Mine was under warranty and even though I told them I broke it, they replaced it and included spares too. They are very inexpensive.

    Thanks, that would be great. I live in Mexico fyi,so if there is a chance to send them would be nice. Although read that ROBO can send some for free, so any of these two options are great.

    Getting back to the extruder issue, the reason why I ruined the thermistor was because I tried to push the filament so hard looking for unclog it. Seems its blocked somehow. Can you tell me or showme how to open it, or any other technique please. Thank you.
