Hi
I have read on this
thread there can be issues with eddie currents being introduced by motor and heater cables.
I wanted to upgrade my thermistor setup to use a thermocouple since it's more robust (dont ask!) and if i decide to print with more exotic materials I need higher temps than the thermistor can support anyways.
On my heater block there is a small around 5mm circular hole where the thermistor used to be so I just stuck it in there then tightened the grub screw onto it. But I'm getting funny readings which I belive are the cause of thermal runaway errors when I start a print.
When that happens I restart the printer, it says on the lcd it's way over 200degrees when I only set it to 190.
So am guessing I installed it wrong, how am I supposed to do it?
If my heatblock isn't suitable, what do you recommend
My printer is a Hictop branded cheapie based at infamous shenzhen.
