Thank you. Just broke the fan connector on pcb trying to replace the fan. Boards connector was so fragile it went to pieces. Luckily a new board is very cheap.

I'm looking forward to the next video😊

i have a ke and it works perfect for me out of the box with a little tunes and config

[YouveGotRyan]

How do you "remove the glue"? Maybe release a more comprehensive version of this video?

[davidoshea]

Thanks Omran, this is exactly what I was looking for. I fixed my KE thanks to you!

[MrGarkin]

very nice montage omiting thermal paste hell when installing heater cartridge.

There’s not much sense to swap k1 hotend, V3 KE works very good and very precise and buying new hotend makes no sense.

[bublemoon]

Bonsoir et merci pour votre tuto ! Je viens de commander ce hotend car j'ai cassé la buse dans la tête de céramique en voulant la remplacer. Cela fait 4 jours que j'ai mon imprimante ... c'est abusé. En espérant que cela règle le problème.

[datadreamsit]

good work. wish i had the hands for it lol

[pascalauandrei]

so the belts and idlers of the K1 that are in the description are fully compatible with the KE or do you need e-steps calibration after replacing them or something else ? Cause the Y & X axis belts are grinding a bit, but not bad, and something stronger with more grip would be more suited as even now i have an order of 1500 small prints, so my SE & KE aren't collecting dust ( i'm novice to intermediate level xD )

[MatthewCandlish]

I Need to replace my heatsink with a new hot end. Do I need any type of thermal paste or simply use the screws to put it back together. Tia

[mDayShamangahabash]

Does this require any modifications to firmware code or anything like that?

[TheDeeStain]

So flow rate slightly improved and just easier to service? Killer video as always! 🤙🏻 Curious your opinion on buying an ender 3 just to turn it into a CNC machine? Viable or silly?

[Idaparasite]

Thank you. However i need some clarification, in the link you've listed it says the OT is for the K1.
Will it fit the ender 3 v3 KE? which model i need to choose? does it also replace the thermistor? I managed to tear mine and did damage to the hotend so am looking for an upgrade

[mamalajeng]

Hello, I'm a beginner. When changing to this hotend model, do I need to make any additional adjustments or can I use it as a direct replacement for the factory default?

[Deividas]

i place this hotend and all the time crashing printing any idea why? looks like fillament to fast going and burning, nothing updating in slicer? or somewhere else? and printer always show nozle heating problems

[luisherrera]

Why does your hotend slide out so easily?
