I just bought the Ender 2 Pro yesterday and I just want to say thank you for the recommendations via your videos and to see upgrades like this to the model I am buying really helps solidify my choice. Thank you for making awesome content!
One thing Chuck skipped over that is worth noting, the EZR is the same extruder that SeeMeCNC developed for use on their multi thousand dollar industrial delta printers.
The EZR is such a simple, yet awesome extruder! Shame SeeMeCNC doesn't offer them on Amazon. Only because they would then get the exposure they deserve. I am shocked China hasn't cloned them yet. Such a huge improvement in quality, and usability.
I much prefer the dual drive gear extruder with 3:1 drive ratio. Never slips and tons of torque. Also has enclosed filament path. It's not see through though, which would be a nice bonus.
@@engineer1692 I have a similar BMG extruder on another printer, and they are good as well. But I really think the EZR holds its own against a BMG style extruder. And they are a very easy swap in, and require zero maintenence (in my experience ).
I love this extruder! I run the EZR on both my CR-10s and now my Ender 2 Pro. On my Ender 2 Pro, had to replace the extruder stepper motor because mine had a short shaft and a pressed on filament gear. Luckily a replacement stepper motor is cheap.
Hey Chuck. Thanks for making these videous. Yesterday I managed to troubleshoot my ender 3 using one of your videos, a partial clog from a wrongly sitted PTFE tubbing. Thanks for making these videous and keep up the hard work. Have a great holiday.
God...I've struggled with that supersized spring on 3 different machines....and never once did I even try replacing the spring with the old one. I'm going to go cry now...and turn in my MacGyver club membership card
I love that you can see the filament at all times while loading it; that's the issue I have with mine, it always snags somewhere, and I can't tell if it's on the extruder wheels or the entry to the PTFE tube after. This would be an ideal fix for that issue. Thinking about it, though, would this be a downgrade for a CR10s-Pro with the supposed Bondtech dual hobbed drive gears?
Hey chep love your videos really like that you mix it up . Any more chance of any ender 3v2 videos or tinkercad tips/ cura tips and tricks . I can relate to those 👍
Chuck how do I set the Z offset and have it stay? That’s the only part I’m missing on this printer? Do I just have to mechanically adjust the switch? Just bought your bed leveling tool and love it. All my other machines have a probe and the z offset wizard. I’m only able to live baby step it and then the next print I have to do it again.
Hey chep love your videos it led me to buying my first 3D printer which is the ender 3 neo. I assembled it and I accidentally connected the wires in the wrong places so when I switched it on it popped and started smoking. I immediately switch it off and it doesn't want to turn on after that. Can you please help me with this I hope I didn't destroy it
Never tried an SerMeCNC EZR extruder. I do hear good things about it though. Not sure I will get one though. Maybe one day I may, just to try it out. But I sort of fell in love with the Bondtech LGX extruders. Both are great but I particularly love the LGX Lite. Before them I would swap those creality extruders with a BGM extruder, either a Bondtech or a Clone, as the ceality stock extruders are crap in my opinion. Even their metal versions. I just hate that design. :) Anyways. Now I just use the LGX's, unless it's a delta where I use a remote direct drive like the Flex3Drive or Zesty Nimble. The LGX extruders are so easy to load filament and I never have issues with them feeding any type of filament. The Lite version is a great alternative for direct drive. I currently have one installed on my Neptune 2 as a direct drive and plane to convert a few others from Bowden to Direct Drive as well.
Great extruders these. I have 3 of them on the recommendation you put out previously Chep. Haven’t had any bother with them at all (the same can’t be said for the Creality plastic or metal ones)
I can't recommend the EZRstruder, even though I wanted to like it. I had one on my Ender 3 Pro, and after about 6 months of regular printing, the bearing on the red part started coming loose, allowing the filament to slide up over the top of the bearing. It couldn't be fixed. I went to an authentic Bondtech BMG and haven't looked back.
@CHEP, Hi Chuck, I have seen your videos regarding this extruder before. If I look at the seemecnc page it states its compatible with all filament types but states its not compatible with glow in the dark filament. Why would this be an issue? Have you tried glow in the dark with it?
Chuck unfortunately ezr struder is not available in our part of the world, you think installing dual drive extruder similar to ender 3 is a good idea. Thanks.
Dear sir First have a great holiday .So I joined thangs just to get your profiles.REALLY you have to be a IT guy to figure all those steps out .For the life of me why you changed the access to your work is beyond me .I'm a 71 year old guy I can figure out alot .But you've made getting your profiles Ridiculously hard .I was gonna join your club just to get the profiles !!. So while I'll continue to watch your content I'll have to go else for workable creality profIles .Shame really Have a great holiday and be safe .
@@FilamentFriday well what if you configured it with v2 firm ware adjust the x/y/z axes to the size of the bed. The one could use the v2 display and even upgrade it to the sprite pro extruder

I would like to say I love the EZR extruder I have them on all 5 of my printer and it for sure thanks to you @CHEP great video.

I’ve had a good experience with all your recommendations and profiles, ordered one to add onto my ender 2 pro

Single best upgrade I've made to my Ender 3.

One of the best upgrades for your 3d printer
Great video and easy explanation of calibrating esteps on the Ender2pro. I'll have to try this tonight.
God...I've struggled with that supersized spring on 3 different machines....and never once did I even try replacing the spring with the old one. I'm going to go cry now...and turn in my MacGyver club membership card
great and simple explanation of new extruder calibration, thanks!
Fantastic tutorial, Chuck! Thanks! 😃
Put some BLO on those prints!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

This is very helpful. Thanks for sharing this.
Glad to know SeeMeCNC was able to get something right. The original SeeMeCNC Delta's were absolute trash.
Hey chep love your videos really like that you mix it up . Any more chance of any ender 3v2 videos or tinkercad tips/ cura tips and tricks . I can relate to those 👍
Tinkercad videos are coming. Probably featured on Patreon first since they have mixed response on RUclips.
Thx chep!
Would it be the same on the Ender 3 Pro?
Do you know if the ezr strider filament sensor is compatible too?
Can you please make a tutorial to how to install silent fans on this machine, i find it I too loud
hello, do you have a video on how to activate thermal runout detection on the ender 2 pro

Return it. Sounds dead to me.

that so cool chep
Would the e-step measuring process work also for an Ender 3?
yes
👍🏻👍🏻
Is it possible to install this on other printers besides the Ender 2 Pro?
Absolutely! It is designed to bolt onto the stepper motor.

I don’t understand that other than it will wear out faster with abrasive filaments like that.
How about adding a CR Touch to the Ender 2 Pro?
Chuck unfortunately ezr struder is not available in our part of the world, you think installing dual drive extruder similar to ender 3 is a good idea. Thanks.
It can help

Where’s the link? I can’t find on Amazon either.
In description.
How do u like the new extruder so far
Would this work on an Ender 3 Neo?
Yes.
just get a bond tech bmg clone... 30 bucks for a single gear extrude??
Would it be possible to replace the main board with one for a ender 3 v2?
Im sure you could. I know some people have installed a V4.2.7 in it. It’s the firmware that can be hard to find.
@@FilamentFriday well what if you configured it with v2 firm ware adjust the x/y/z axes to the size of the bed. The one could use the v2 display and even upgrade it to the sprite pro extruder
Anything’s possible.
@@FilamentFriday Apart from taking your pants off over your head. 😄
@Loneman - A tear in the crotch might still allow it ;)
My extruder motor has a gear that doesn't come off?
Same
Same here...
Can this be used on a CR-6 SE?
Probably. Don’t know for sure though. It fits most Creality printers.
It does, but you have to get a little creative.
Current unavailable…😢?
video made it sold out
Think it’s back in stock
💕👌👍
