Couple things I'm curious about. 1. Why use a non standard sized heat block? A cube shape would allow you use reuse the stock silicone sock or fid your own alternative. Seems like a cost cutting measure to use less metal and not a retraction setting bonus. 2. If you're upgrading to an all metal hot end, the end goal is typically to print materials that require higher temps. At that point why not upgrade the thermistor to a stud and not reuse the fragile glass thermistor?
Finishing up my video as we speak. It's also compatible with the Neptune 2 with a slight fan shroud modification (but that thing desperately needs one anyway)
Unfortunately, this kit only works for the N3/N3 Pro. The N3 Plus/N3 Max use a different hotend configuration with unique heater/sensor elements, so it cannot integrate with the Copperhead hotend. However, we are open to exploring integration options with these models in the future! Have you experienced similar difficulties when printing on your Neptune 3 Plus?
Actually, we stand corrected! This kit works with the Neptune 3 Pro/Plus/Max configurations as they all share the same hotend! We only have the Neptune 3 Pro in-house, so we were only able to test on that machine specifically. But after confirming now with some other testers and sources, it looks like it will fit the N3 Plus/N3 Max just fine!
So only around £110 to order to the UK due to the cost of VAT and such.. I think that is way too much to pay for a new hot end for my Neptune 3 Max.? I prefer to buy a all metal hot end from my normal place for around £20 and since it be from the UK, no customs or extra VAT to pay! Just two months after I brought my Neptune 3 Max if I known Elegoo was going to do the Neptune 4 Max for the same money and it had Klipper and all metal hot end already installed. I would have not brought the Neptune 3 Max but instead brought the Neptune 4 Max! So now I have to pay out lots to upgrade the Neptune 3 Max to Klipper system by the BTT Pad 7 and get a all metal hot end for it? Life really sucks sometimes.
@@darklordstudio Literally all you need to do is alter the firmware you're using to change the max temp range. not download some experimental firmware so I don't know what you're on about
Coming from the guys who paired up with Bondtech for the CHT, ripped it off and put it in their own product, and then lied about why it was there, claiming it was for "laminar flow" - when we all know that filament flows in a laminar fashion. _after_ threatening everyone around with patent lawsuits. Slice is a scumbag company.

Great video, however, please consider lowering the music volume after a few seconds of the intro, it make listening very hard
Thank you for your feedback, Mathieu!
i'm interedted but how is the flow rate compared to a MK8 CHT nozzle that can be used on Neptune 3?
Anycubic Kobra 2 Max and Elegee Neptune 4 Max pleaaaase
Would this fit the N3plus also?

@@SliceEngineering that’s excellent, thanks for replying back and clarifying
Is this compatible with the Neptune 3 Max?
Yes it is!

Instead of spending a fortune on upgrades, put that money on a 4Max.
Do you have to adjust the temperature in anyway tho?
We recommend a PID tune after installation!
How do we crank the temp to 300c?
You'd have to change the firmware
@@microsoftsam1970 I did that some time ago, and it was buggy as hell.

@@microsoftsam1970 Thanks for the help.
