E3D Thermistor Cartridge

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.

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

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 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.

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.

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.
