I want to try the hot end thermistor modificaiton on my P1S so I can print PPS-CF. I see 300blkfde shared a video [] (https://fosscad.io/post/66994) on the OG Foscad (rip) but the video didn't make it on the ark. Has anyone successfully done this that could show me the way?

Late reply but I actually did save a copy. I've uploaded to Catbox: https://files.catbox.moe/pvjtlf.mp4

I feel like crimping a jst sm on the ends of the thermistor wire and doing a loop with normal wire to each and putting the resistor on that with heat shrink is probably a more sturdy solution long term. You have more than enough room inside the front faceplate to make it work. I used jst sm on all my hotend connections on my 500c ender with zero issues. And that's fans, crtouch, heater and pt1000. So no worries about it melting a connector as long as it doesn't touch the nozzle.
