Just wanted to say that this hot end is a huge upgrade over the V3B . I commend Rick and the crew on an awesome upgrade !! No more heat worries and the drop to set Z height is pretty awesome too !!!

Just a little history. The
v2 started shipping around May 2010. The v3(a) came out about six months later...

The v1 was solid PEEK. It worked fine for ABS but did not work for PLA. The hybrid v2 (w/PTFE insert) was created to work with ABS and PLA.
