Reliable temperature readings, but the wires not so much...
4/5
I'm still going 4 stars because it is a very reliable thermistor from a sensor perspective and the quick-connect is much easier than running a full metre of wire every time you need to replace them. Just annoyed that I've had 2 fail in the last 6 months due to the very low gauge wiring. Adding additional stress relief has helped, but I may go as far as reinforcing the wiring itself somehow. Something to keep in mind if ordering.

Excellent thermal sensor
5/5
Bought a couple of these to upgrade an older Lite6, they're a plug and play replacement for the older versions.

The wire broke off the Cartridge only after one small print.

e3d heater cartridge
5/5
This unit is also a flawless performer and works just fine as long as the user keeps tools away from it. 100 % user at fault to need a replacement at least in my case.

E3D Thermistor Cartridge
5/5
Always great quality products from E3D. Rather than switch nozzles I'm assembling complete hot ends with different size nozzles and quick disconnects. I've found that switching just the nozzle was damaging my heater block.

GREAT!
5/5
Bought it here so i would not have to deal with usual Prusa backorders and customs fees. Great thermistor replacement for original Prusa MK3!

It's a Thermistor all right
5/5
Worked as expected, it's nice to have the plug so the next time I mess up a print so badly it rips off the thermistor AGAIN, I can replace it without disassembling my printer.

right product for my problem
5/5
My thermistor failed on my prusa. Ordered this unit as a replacement. Arrived quicker than expected and got me back to printing right quick. Thanks.

E3D OEM part
5/5
bought to replace original on E3D titan V6
turns out the faulty signal was from the wiring connecting the thermistor back to the control board... so now I have a spare

Good Thermistor
5/5
Bought one of these as a replacement for one that suffered wire fatigue, key seems to be bracing the disconnect connector so it can't move relative to the wire bundle, otherwise you get stress failure at the connector.

Good quality thermistor but wires should be longer.
4/5
I have Installed this thermistor with a new block and heating element on my Prusa i3 MK2 and I find the wires slightly to short to clear properly the metal frame when it goes home on X axis. Is difficult to keep the plastic connector away from the metal frame as have to be kept under the other wires. If the wires would be 12-15 mm longer would be perfect.

Replacement

Its replacement for the original part and behaves as such. Just swap it in and its done.

Good Product, Quick Shipping
4/5
This replaced my first/identical thermistor; the ends of which wore and broke off, but lasted a heavy amount of printing.
Worth ordering an extra to have on hand.

Great thermistor for Prusa i3 MK2S
4/5
Great thermistor for my Prusa i3 MK2S and fast delivery.
The only downside was the connector between the wire of thermistor and the other extension set of wire. This create an interference when the X axis go and snap the limit switch. To solve this issue, I had to remove the 2 blue thermistor's tiny cable from the connector and use my broken thermistor wire to attach them to my older i3 MK2S thermistor cable that is connected to the board.
A suggested improvement would be to provide longer blue cable from thermistor so the connector can be attach to the harness without interferring with the i3 MK2S frame.
Not a big issue and I recommend it to any i3 MK2S user that need to fix a broken wire/thermistor.

works great with prusa i3 mk2s
5/5
I installed this after my old style e3dv6 thermistor was severed by a blob of PLA. Slid right into the hot end and interfaced perfectly with the RAMBO board.

Really good quality but
4/5
This thermistor is really good quality but when placed into the newer e3d hot end with the thumb screw I screwed it only until I felt a bit of give (so as to keep the sensor in there). Apparently, even that was a bit much as the thermistor started to short out and give me a negative reading. I will probably buy this one again but be even more careful with it this time as it is a very sensitive piece of metal.
