Ramp-up speed to desired setpoint (sec) 14.5–18 sec, adjusted post-lag calibraiton: ~10.4s avg +/- 3 sec variability (~12 sec average unadjusted); no further cal changes possible in default mode. Surface Uniformity Index (temp variance in degree F):

nearly zero deviation^*, ±0.5° max swing Noticeable +/-1.2–+2.7 F swings Total Power Demand (in watts consumed during full-cycle printing operation) : ^*[based on 1k continuous sample]

Steadily pulled about 55 Watts at idle temp stabilization, then jumps slightly (+63W) during active extrusion Draw spikes occurred frequently; peaks reached beyond recommended PSU thresholds (recordings up to 69W occasionally triggered safety shutdowns on older models). Not great for reliability in field setups where voltage inconsistency prevails
Final Remarks: [as analyzed May '24 dataset, reviewed against earlier Q2 logs] Based purely from user reports gathered during beta testing of both setups, overall satisfaction skewed significantly toward copper-enhanced heater head assemblies despite marginally higher procurement cost upfront. So... worth the investment if long term ROI factors count heavily for purchasing decisions in yours or your company’s tech upgrades.
