i have used teflon tape on mine, if you dont have access to Kapton, just wrap it three times around. As well, I couldn't get it to fit into the control box so I took it apart and carefully noted which was pos and neg. Then it was simple to put the wires under the screws.

Kapton tape would be the best.

No problem. I'm planning to spend some time updating the instructions soon, will keep this in mind.

What is that on the electrical diagram is it the t-couple or the heater? Also where does it go? The PDF for the filastruder makes no reference as to where it goes. It seems to have a hot and a ground polarity but the heater band that goes near the nozzle seems to have no polarity leaving me to think that the object in the picture is the t-couple. Any ideas?
