Good adorable hot end

I have had a lot of jamming and heat problems with my hot end, so i am looking for a new one. I have heard that the J-heads are good, but i do not know what makes it a jay head. It would be nice to not go over 30 ish.

If it follows the specifications here its a J-head

NB every single J-Head from china/ebay/aliexpress etc is not a J-Head, they have simply stolen the name for their crappy products

Best to get one from the designer (or other known good supplier as listed on the wiki)

Thanks for the help, do you recommend any other kinds of hot ends under 30 usd?

I think for that price range you can look at e3dv6 lite and aluhotendv7.

So the aluhotend or the E3DV6 would be better then something like this : [deltaprintr.com]

I don't know about the aluhotend, but the E3DV6 is a modern and reliable alround hotend, while the J-Head is a proven, but limited, oldie.
If you only want to print PLA i might actually go with the J-Head, but if you plan to use different types of materials get the E3D.
