E3D Genuine Heater Cartridge - 24v 40w (E-HEATER-24V-40W)

The two specific features I was interested in were not included in the parts that arrived. After reviewing the e3d website, the unit pictured is a new specialty e3d high-temperature heater cartridge. Of additional concern, the configuration that arrived doesnt seem to appear on e3ds site -- there is no all-white basic heater cartridge that I can find. It leaves me wondering if these are counterfeit. In any event, it has been a hassle and an unfortunate waste of time. I have returned the four I ordered for a refund. Edit -- after staring at the packages for two days, I cancelled the return rather than have to go out of my way to drop them off at a UPS store. Im sure theyre adequate for $11 heaters -- they just dont have the features pictured, and those features would make a huge difference in the utility of this product.

Used on my Prusa Mk3S Same temperature curve.

Of the two that I ordered the one that was actually a 24v cartridge works as expected. The second one that I ordered had a label of 24v on the card in the package but was actually a 12v cartridge. I didnt check the label on the cartridge before installing it in my printer and spent a ton of time troubleshooting before I took it back out of the printer and realized that it was the wrong version. I requested a replacement because I want a spare and the second one that was sent was also labeled as 24v but was again a 12v. I then had to spend time running all over town returning the two 12v cartridges because for some reason Amazon would not let me return both of them at the same location.

Does the job. Replaced my old one on a Prusa i3 MK3S that got ruined by a blob incident. The wires I got are white.

This works well in my Prusa i3 MK3S. Theres not much more to say than that. It replaced the one that my printer came with after I broke the connection to the old one when trying to hot tighten my nozzle. One thing to note is that I was sent a white one, not a red one as shown. I dont know if the items description says colors may vary, or not. And, really, how much of the cable do I see? And, really, do I even care? Also, Ive noticed that the hot end tends to shoot past the target temp by about 2-3 degrees C before settling back down. I dont remember if the old one did that, so Im just assuming it did, and that this one is no different.

I cant blame the product, It was an original product from E3D (verified by them). Turns out Prusa (mk3s) uses a specific version of this product. Hence the color coding is different, red for Prusa and white here, while red is supposed to be 24v 20w on the official e3d spec. Long story short, this is not the right product for a Prusa mk3, but it worked for me for a while before it started failing causing resets, so kudos for making it this far.

There may be other uses for this product but if you intend to use it for 3D printing, know that this product does not come with any connectors.

Needed to replace the heater cartridge on my Prusa MK3S. Arrived next day and works perfectly!

Used this during my 12V to 24V printer conversion. Heats up nice and fast, maintains steady temperatures.

heats as fast as the original one i had, but it should.
