Heater, Thermistor and Fan for Mosquito Magnum
-
Good Morning,
just assembling my first CoreXY and thinking about which heater, thermistor and fan to use for a Mosquito Magnum hotend. I'm using a Mosquito on my CR-10S Pro and had problems with controlling the original fan so I think i'll go with a different one. But what's about the heater and thermistor. Is it wise to use the original ones from Slice Engineering or can someone recommend something different?
Thanks, Martin

The Slice engineering 50w heater and thermistor are very well constructed. That little hotend heats up like nobodys business!
And for a fan, I am using a three wire to monitor RPMs.So far the toolboard seems to handle it all great. From past experience, I find that going with the name brand gear is worth the time, hassle and aggravation save from not going with knockoffs.

Hello, I went for a 25mm fan, knockoff 450deg thermistor and 22mm 50W cartridge from mellow.
Even running their hardened and plated copper nozzles
Absolutely no issue with setup or reliability it's been doing a great job for the past 3months here.
I found the ambient temp shows up rather high but the discrepancy goes off as it rises in temp; from the 200s deg it's spot on. (controlled with a temp probe inserted in the hotend)
