Not all 3D printer upgrades work great, and this one was dangerous at worst and at best didn't work. I don't like making negative reviews, but the 12 Volt CHC kit doesn't work.

This review mostly covers the 12 Volt kit of this hotend. I didn't try it on a 24V printer since I really wanted it on my Anycubic Mega S, and since they list it for 12V systems then it should have worked.

I think the main issue here is the DC-DC boost board not being strong enough. A larger spec 12V to 24V MOSFET might be what this needs to work correctly, but I was reviewing it as shipped.

I spent a week trying different methods to get this working. I tried keeping a fan on the Voltage Booster to keep it running. I tried 3 different booster boards to make sure it wasn't just one cheap board not working.

I'll update this description if TriangleLabs gets back to me on about this.
