No one has tried it yet, except for designers; since it's not shipping yet... I was going to buy it, but went with E3Dv5 for now.
Re: Has anyone tried this hot end looks promising
actually, the thermistor limits the temperature to 300 °C... But still !!!
That's a hell of a hot end...
SD3, early 2013. Silicon 200W 8x8 heater bed, lawsy carriage on 8 mm hardened chrome shafts, E3D V6 and lawsy MK5 extruder, ATX 350 W PSU, Custom build plywood enclosure, azteeg x5 mini smothie firmware, with vikki 2 screen, fishing line conversion and pulley conversion, M5 Z rod. Calling it Gran'ma, going strong ! <3

Better read RichRap's review... It might look pretty, but has some significant issues at the moment.

The same review that states the E3D is a 'perfect' Groove mount ? 
I jest.. besides the above inaccuracy, its a very good review from someone worth listening too

This might be worth keeping an eye on for a more compact dual head setup. I was planning on using two E3D's but they are rather bulky.
Bowden SD3, Rumba, E3D hotend, Mk5 with RtRyder changes, Direct drive Y axis and bearings, GT2 pulleys and braided fishing line, Lawsy linear bearing conversion, M3 Z screw.

Or you could get a Kraken and have 4 Nozzles in about the same space...

I was going to let the Kraken get a little further into the community. After my larger scale printer build, I want to use the Kraken on a Delta printer.

I've got a setup completely built and ready to install using a pair of J-head mk5 and a pair of geared Bowden extruders, one of these days I might even take it all out of the box and install it. Probably wait for the next time my SD3 needs servicing but that could be a while as its still going strong from the last round of repair/upgrades. This setup is only a slight bit wider than the single E3D setup I currently have installed
