@t3p3tony I just double checked and you are right, I must have got it confused with another cable. Sorry for the confusion.

@dc42 Thanks that is perfect

Cheers

Oh wow that would would push me far over budget.

Do you think I could cannibalise something like this?

I could make my own connections, none of them seem to list the material they are made of so I am not sure if the cable would work.

thanks for the information above.

Hello

I am building a 400mm square hypercube and decided to purchase the thercouple board with a V6 K type thermocouple for my hot end. I have just got to fitting the hot end and the wires on the Thercouple supplied are about 200mm long which i did not see on the order form and I assumed would be the same as the thermistor. Reading the other topic on here it seems I need to get special wire to extend the sensor.

The printer will be fully enclosed so the copper wire option seems a no go, I can purchase a 1 meter version K type thermocouple for £12 but this seems expensive considering what I already paid for the short one I was supplied.

From my reading I will need wires made up of two different metals matching the sensor but i can not find the details of the one supplied with my duet. I will be extending the cables around 1.5 meters to the duet housed in the base of the printer.

Hope someone can help
Cheers
