My new to this so I hope that this is in the right place. I've built a Mendelmax and have been delighted with its performance however the thermistor in the hot end failed and I am having a lot of trouble trying to locate a supplier in Australia. I can find plenty of 100 K thermistors but unfortunately none the right size. According to the rep rap write up it is Thermistor 5
Part Number: 104GT-2
Manufacturer: Semitec
Description: NTC 100k ohm 3%
Tolerance: 3%
Data Sheet: High Heat-Resistance and High Sensitive Thermistor
Diameter of Glass Bead: 1.35mm +-0.15mm
Length of Glass Bead: 3mm +-1mm
Lead Length: 45mm +-1mm
Lead Diameter: 0.15mm to 0.18mm
If anybody can point me in the right direction I'd be very grateful.
There is no rush on this as I have one coming from overseas but I would like to be able to source locally.
