I am happy with my original Hotends !!!!!!!

I can't wait! The only thing I'm upset about is having to wait until mid August. Increased performance and super simple swapping between different size nozzles. If you don't care about removing screws, disconnecting / reconnecting cables or even swapping the fan and thermistor then maybe this isn't for you. If you're like me and want a simple and fast way to switch between different size or manufacturer nozzles then this seems like an awesome option.

The only reason I watched the video was TO SEE HOW THE ONE-HANDED NOZZLE SWAP WORKS! Just about anyone who has used a Bambu Lab machine enough to want this upgrade already knows how to do everything you DID show. If your video was this much of a waste of time to view, will your product be as much of a waste of time????

How did we come so far and then engineer backwards? I used to have the stock bambu x1c hotend. Took like 2 minutes for me to change but not 20 lol. Concern was always the plugging and unplugging the connectors and limited nozzle size availability from bambu. I upgraded to the E3D Panda revo. Which unlike you guys, actually showed how to remove the nozzles. Comes assembled out of the box by the way, so true plug and play. Now I have 8 different nozzle sizes including 1.4mm; obxidian, diamond backs, High Flow those are all available too. not worried about snapping of a connector any more. Lefty loosey righty tighty all with your fingers, no wrenches needed, dont need to remove the sock. No heatcreep, i print PLA with doors closed and 55c bed temp. And as a bonus, the aluminum heatsink is blue anodized instead of being left bare like this one lol

I managed to dislodge the JST connector on my X1C accessory board whilst swapping nozzle. So this replacement sounds like a really great idea. Mind you, at $124, i might just risk the jst connector. That's a rather high price.

Good work but too expensive

Wow tough crowd. Interesting product, would like to see test results and actual nozzle swap though. 15 min swap time for oem nozzle is a bit steep, but that's obviously based on if you need to do a full swap of the fan and thermistor. I do wish bambu had this nozzle only swap ability though. It's a steep price, but if quailty remains and results are close to 60 percent speed increase that's a considerable upgrade.

This is cool, but I still like the REVO hotend version.

That sounds great, but really would be a game changer if the nozzle diameter would be variable. That's where you should focus your dev. Honestly, I will spend the 20 minutes changing the nozzle rather than pay for $100 of something that won't give me new features. Hope you can come with better innovations.

Thank you for all the feedback and questions! We want to clarify a few points: Downtime Explanation: While the video shows the physical swap of the hotend taking just a couple of minutes, the 15-20 minute estimate accounts for the entire process, including swapping heater, sensor, fan, and the cooling and heating cycle - basically going from a printing hotend to another printing hotend of another size, aka downtime. The intent of Mako is that you won’t ever have to do that again, since swapping a nozzle is so much easier and doesn’t cause wear and tear on the fragile heater and sensor cables. Speaking of nozzles… One-Handed Nozzle Swap: We hear you! A demo video showcasing the one-handed nozzle swap feature is coming very soon. Major oversight on our part not to include that in this video. Stay tuned! Flowrate Numbers: We're in the final stages of flowrate testing for various materials. Detailed results will be released shortly along with material-specific profiles. We appreciate your patience as we finalize a full set of profiles. Installation Clarification: This video's “Preparing Mako” section features installing Mako with the electronics that came with your printer, which requires additional steps vs. the preinstalled version. Mako can also be purchased with electronics pre-installed. Slice is known for producing industrial products that last for thousands of hours. Mako is an opportunity to take advantage of that expertise and have a hotend designed to outlast your printer in addition to the flexibility of having application-specific nozzles.

What a terrible demonstration video.

I can switch the bambu hot end with nozzle with 2 screws and 2 plugs. This seems overly complicated. Am I missing seething?

I don't understand the need or the sell here. Honestly, this is just for folks who want to use more standard nozzles. It doesn't realistically save time, because a whole nozzle hotend Bambu assembly change is just the two screws. Changing a nozzle requires heating up and tightening. That could also lead to leaking, over tightening and stripping etc. It's kind of a step backwards just to be able to use other brands of standard nozzles. A bit of a miss here on the marketing, although it is a useful adapter

When a video is so poorly thought out it makes me think the product probably is as well. Add in the high price and I'm out. No tests? No one handed nozzle swap? No visual justification why I should buy this over the much cheaper Chinese versions?

Will there be a Mako Hotend upgrade for the QiDi Q1 Pro?

Where is the nozzel swap. What a nonsense video and over priced junk.

Prices are an absolute Joke. Your claims are bullshit. This has been available from other suppliers for well over a year for a tiny fraction of your price.

Any UK distribution stores?

hard to believe paying 9x more money for something that won't be 9x faster

Stay away from

130 dollars where 2 weeks ago, I paid 29 dollars for a full assembley from Bambu...

Wow, even if I drank a lot of beer, it wouldn’t take that long to replace a hot hand

It looks cool but I’ll pass. 120 dollars for a nozzle is crazy. Also it takes like 2 minutes for a nozzle swap. Can you quantify the 15 minutes?

Wait Consumers still buy Slice products? Especially when they make a claim of, "This product will allow you complete a print *up to 60% faster" I'm going to say that's some extreme propaganda. I feel like I am trying to be sold a used car here... Maybe in Vase mode and even then I am still going to doubt the 60%

120 for a nozzle, you are out of your mind, no nozzle should be priced like that

Missed the mark on this one chief, where’s the a1 hotends and why is this being sold for $100 starting, what makes it worth that outrageous price without even having a diamond or ruby tip option?

My Panda Revo takes SECONDS to swap out. And I can use those same nozzles on my Voron. Yah, it would be a good idea to show a nozzle swap.

2:38 "We like choices over here" Not community / open source choices though :)

Credibility 0. 15 minutes to swap a nozzle? Nope.

It takes me less than 2 minutes... Maybe 1 minute.

No, im not sick of it all.

And how do you swap nozzles? What is the difference with the stock hotend?

You should have shown a nozzle swap. But still - quite exicting.

why didn't you demonstrate switching a nozzle with one hand?

"The Ultimate Hotend Upgrade You’ve Been Waiting For" Takes literally 1 min on the video to remove the stock nozzle. 1 min to reverse and install another one. Where does 15-20 minutes comes from? Also, the hotend we've been waiting for, doesn't even show quick swap of the nozzles or flowrate results... So, please remind me, why should I pay over a $100 for?

that looks great and all but it would have been nice if u showed the quick swap between nozzles

An entire hotend assembly swap takes less than 3 minutes.

You guys consistently miss the mark with every product video, it's a real shame. You guys used to do real nice stuff 4-5 years ago. Now you're way off course and out of touch with your customer base with a big corporate feel. Why are you not upfront showing the flow rate with print tests instead of a bunch of obvious install steps? This is all customers care about not your sales speach. This seems an over priced addition with little to no benefit apart from screwing in a seperate nozzle which was already invented months ago by Chinese sellers for peanuts... $125+ usd is insane for the same product and performance...

Way too expensive for something I already got from aliexpress for less than a third of the price.

15-20mins for a hot end swap?? I've been doing it wrong... It likes like 1 min tops. Even building a complete hotend is max 10mins.

Why would you just not make it v6 compatible?

$14,900.00 USD

Any chance of seeing One Handed nozzle change in action

Exactly! Increasing volumetric flow is the best way moving forward! Smart move and looks like an amazing product!

Heckin yeesss 💪 🇺🇸 😎

What’s the max volumetric flow with ABS? I’m very interested in ditching my E3D Bambu hotend.

Need to see the nozzle swap process. Since Bambu leaves filament in the hot block, how can you change without it not bottoming out improperly? Any plastic affecting the seal is a disaster in the making, right?

Nice, so you can use M6 bondtech reprap nozzles with this hotend?

Very excited to compare this to the E3D nozzle.

Looks easy!
