Hey guys, I have been searching and cant seem to find the command to enter to increase the current to the hot end.
I remember reading somewhere a command to put in pronterface to increase the current and overall power to the hotend ?
Iv got gen 6, marlin, i noticed when using a fan on the top part of my hotend, it really struggles to maintain its temp....

you can look at standard gcode wiki here: [reprap.org]
there is an extruder pwm command but it is for dc motor current. (M113 retired dc motor pwm command)
there is also a pwm heater power setting in configuration.h of firmware of marlin, but i would advise against over powering the heater element. why is it cooling down or not maintaining temp? have you properly insulated it?

go to this section a few pages down
Configuring and compilation:
if you dont want to program it, or modify firmware, then insolate the hot end really well.
