Ridiculously cheap. Much to my surprise, this actually worked.
Looked at some threads around here and these reprap heat cartridges saved my printer.

Let's get crackin' again.

You should use the brush only when the head is hot, but not while power is applied to the heater.

Tried resoldering but the wires are too deep in the head to grab on to.

What do you guys think?

Drill, buy a new head from DaVinci or buy a third party head?
