What color are your heater wires?

Also PEEK is quite difficult to print, requires a 200C heated bed and ideally a 150C heated enclosure.

I've seen this post on 3 different message boards. Spreading out the discussion makes it hard to have consolidated answers for a search.

I will be updating each one with my solution, the 40W heater element and the walkthough to do the upgrade.  Since there isnt a ton of information on the upgrade I wanted to write a walkthrough so no one has to do what I did.

Thanks for the help elmoret!

elmoret will have to help out with this question.

Everything works great under 310C but the temp seems to just taper off and plateau at 311C.

Any ideas on how i can get it to output at 400C?

Thanks
