Hello
I bought a Ender 3 but I read that there is no thermal runaway protection. Does it works by firmware or hardware?

Hello, I bought an Ender 3, it's a good entry-level machine, but it doesn't has thermal runaway protection. What do yoiu think about it? Can I improve the security of this 3d printer adding HW or FW tools? Where can I find the firmware? On the creality official website we can only download the .hexe FW not the .ino

After they where publicly told they were being naughty (and their sales plummeted), they released the source code they used

[github.com]

the safety feature are just firmware features.

But...

The firmware they are using is really old.. and may not have the features your want. (had a quick look, its not there)
