Heater

  • 120V edition. For 240V, needs to increase R significantly. Must increase the length of the resistance element 4x or decrease its gauge. P=I^2*R - to keep power same.
  • 8 feet for easy winding in a workshop
  • 850F max temp, good for sleeve rated at 1000F
  • Is on all the time during a print, keeps complexity down. Essentially a PLA + rubber printer for small production.
