Either way to be honest.
My preference is to use the correct voltage fans but other people are happy with buck converters -
have you measured the resistance ?

169.1 Kohms If i read it correctly. That is at room temp which is cool today as there's no heating on at the moment in that room.

which is about what temperature?
-
@Veti thermostat in that room says 12c

ok thats inline with a 100k ntc thermistor.
but which one is not as easy to determine.
can you put the thermistor at 100C using a known good temperature measuring tool?
i.e here is a beta 3950 resistance table.

https://www.keenovo.com/NTC-Thermistor-R-T-Table.pdfI'm not sure how I'd go about that especially with what I have available at the moment. Am I daft thinking i could try suspend it in some boiling water and measure it then?
-
can you post a picture of the thermistor in the hotend?

I'll try. I've a work call now but will do it after.
thanks for your help.

How was the original board configured - maybe you can borrow some info from there?

Best I can manage at the moment. I'll have to take the shroud off etc.

Pics.

This other board was below the touch screen.
-
Ouch / RIP. No immediately obvious easy way to get anything from that, the main cpu on the motion controller had seen better days indeed.
(there is what looks like a 8 pin soic flash chip, but might not be worth while extracting it if settings are in the other cpu's flash / eeprom)
-
@bearer It didn't smell too great when that happened

https://www.keenovo.com/NTC-Thermistor-R-T-Table.pdfI have an infrared thermometer gun (for the pizza oven). How about in the oven and use that to read the surface temp of it?
-
if the oven temp is stable then it should work if left long enough for temperature to equalize on the board and oven; i prefer to use water with crushed ice and boiling water for a 2 point calibration as its more stable and water conducts the temperature better than air (but water does have its own challenges)

Also as you'll tweak the print profile it doesn't matter if you print at 210 or 215 as long as you get consistent results - i.e. precision is more important than accuracy unless running a print farm.

That's a good point. It will be run as a lone printer.
