Replacement Hotbeds

[Geoff]

Hey guys, thought I would post this link, I got one of these and they work great on the old flashforge, cheap as too.. so if your hotbed ever dies, try one of these, $14, free shipping, laughing... even if I get 12 months out of it , for that price I don't care

£8.28 inc shipping. What's it made of ?

It's just the PCB hotbed, a thermistor is what, $5 ? and if you are lucky your old thermistor is still ok...

The holes are the right spacing, so the countersunk screws just go through the aluminium to this with the wingnuts under, I suggest buying a cork thermal layer too, makes a big big difference.

Nice link!

What voltage did you buy (12V or 24V) and what do you mean with the cork thermal layer? Do you put cork under the hotbed to isolate?
