      I Suspect and am sure David will confirm that it is to allow for the LED's to work of both a 12 and 24V system and that the Fans still need to be suitable for the Vin that you are using.

      at least that's how I have mine set up.

      It is absolutley the bees knees as well I am getting spot on results from my autocal on the delta of dev's of 6-7 microns and a pretty flat bed map as well.

        Is there a spot to use a beard air system on the effector too not. It iced any holes for a pass through. I know Doug, myself, luckless and Brian to name a couple have this installed.

        I'm jealous of Doug getting to try that lol I might go steal it lol

          No there isn't Rommie But I have designed a part to replace there Fan attachment so that the Berdair tube can be fitted but it may need adjusting slightly depending on the Diameter of the pipe that hopefully you have sent up to me lol.

            Also I don't have the STL for the Nimble adaptor but it is on Shapeways still for about £6 Sure Lykle will send it to you or publish it on Thingyverse now we know that the hole spacing etc on the top of the collar is not going to change

              Thanks for the remind Doug!

              I have published the adapter on Thingiverse. Quite a simple little design really.

                  Will the new hotend mount be mandatory to be able to use the new effector?

                  If yes then it would be great if you could offer a bundle, that will help to reduce customs costs for importing because everything is shipped in one package from one vendor.

                    Yes we will offer a kit comprising the effector + carriage adapters + connectors + custom E3Dv6 heatsink. You will be able to order other E3Dv6 parts at the same time if you want.

                      Dumb question, there's a jumper to switch from 12 to 24v, is it just to select the VIN you've got right, it doesn't let you plug 12v fan on a 24 VIN ?

                      It's just to select the correct series resistor for the illumination LEDs. It doesn't affect the voltage fed to the fans.

                      Regarding the print cooling fan, we have a suggested printable design for a fan bracket and fan duct to suit a 40mm x 10mm fan; but you can of course use a different design instead.

                        So with the kit I won't use my genuine E3D heatsink but the custom one in the kit?

                              No but again all the other parts from the lite are the same as the full so you just need to custom Heatsink parts. plus a heatbreak, Nozzle and heater parts are common.

                                The first 4 production effectors passed testing this morning, so I've just given the go ahead for manufacture of the rest of this batch to proceed.

                                  David that is excellent news.

                                  So I guess we are talking about 2-3 weeks for them to be available then?

                                      i really love the design and the light weight
                                      now it will be great to have piezo sensor available for this effector with nimble it could be a beast combo

                                        It's a secret until we start shipping them.

                                        does it will be compatible with smoothieware software?
                                        i hope uk shipping cost will not killing us..(it so expansive..)

                                          It should work with other electronics and firmware if you accept the default sensitivity. Whether that will work for you depends on the level of vibration of the effector during probing.

                                            The nozzle contact sensor is built in, so no need for a piezo. At least one of our beta testers is looking at mounting a Nimble on it.
