The stock thermistor in the XYZ 1.0, 2.0, and aio are all the same common 100k thermistor that you can buy 5 for 5 bucks on ebay.

The bed thermistor is a different story. It is a special custom made one just for XYZ.

I thought people were having issues using these thermistors. The tempurature curve is different or something.

The ones on ebay are 3950, and I think xyz thermistor is 5000.

The issue is that XYZ added a resistor in parallel with the thermistor on the mainboard. This is what makes the curve different.  On a stock XYZ hotend and a RAMPS conversion the the hotend works as expected.
