DiamondBack HotEnd for Bambu Lab X1C, X1E, P1P & P1S

Not too happy! Fan faulty - sent a ticket for it....no response going on over a week since I made the original request!. As well I am having parts come loose during the print. Did not have problems before with original hotels!

very satisfied with the results
i wish you made diamondback hotend for bambu A1

Wore out after 1Kg of Polymaker PLA Luminous orange. My first spool printed perfectly but i quickly started having extrusion issues on the next one. Did cold pulls till it was clean but nozzle has never printed as well since. Extrusion issues on gold picture. Green benchy left is Bambu Lab nozzle and the right is e3d, you can see bulges in layers and e3d is noticeably worse. I contacted support and they asked me to print their own benchmark buggy and they blamed my parts fan. I told them my parts fan is running fine and asked for some clarification but have been ignored since. Maybe I just got a bad nozzle but I don't know. They had said overhangs were a giveaway so i did an overhang test. The bambu lab nozzle did slightly better, both nozzles didn't have issues till 60 degree hang but issues were about 5% less on bambu nozzle. I think that overhang test was within average range of P1S ability. However I would expect the E3D Obxidian to at least match performance, not be worse. It must've been defective because it doesn't make sense for it to wear out so fast. Id rather do an exchange than a return but customer service stopped responding to me after 2 emails.

I got the 0.6mm nozzle from a local reseller in the US. Upon testing it out, I believe the nozzle does a great job. It keeps up with high volumetric flow, and the parts have noticeably better layer adhesion.

However, this nozzle doesn't seem great for PLA Silk filaments, and I don't know why that is. All the prints that I try end up with ghosting, and what seems to be ringing, but diagonally. Normally ringing is vertical, so this looks to me like the coating on the nozzle tip is actually somewhat sticky to PLA Silk, and it drags over it.

I already spent about 10 hours trying to dial it down, and the only thing that helps hide the issue a little is in OrcaSlicer enabling "Down slow down for overhangs". The issue is not gone, but reduced. If I swap out to a stock 0.6mm nozzle then I don't see this issue. And this is only with PLA Silk.

Besides that, everything works great. Bed Leveling is fine, it just works out of the box with every other filament that I tried except for PLA Silk.

Now, It is a pretty steep price to pay, was it worth it? The speed gains are not really noticeable. It saves maybe about 5% total time. However, the stronger layer adhesion is definitely worth it for my use cases.

The higher flow compared to Bambu stock nozzle is here, but how dare you sell this nozzle as non-sticky ?
Filament stick a lot on it, it ruins all my multicolor prints.
The nozzle also lets filament flow when changing colors, leaving unwanted bits on prints.
At the end the print quality is not here, at least in multicolor.
Just usable for one color print requiring higher flow.
personally I'm not going to use it anymore, it will sleep in a drawer from now on.

All great as expected

Increased PetG flow to 32, Priniting time much faster now.

Great hot end

Great shipping great price easy installation!

Amazing!

Switched to this hotend because I print PLA CF for my product. I've had perfect prints every time.

The only failures I've had were due to prototype render errors.

Definitely worth the money. If I were using a standard nozzle, I probably would have gone through 2 or 3 by now.

Clogged and after all of the techniques to unclog, eventually gave up. Disappointed that such an expensive hotend would fail on me like this

Lays down filament perfect for prints. Very impressed with all my prints made with it. I will be buying some more sizes.

So far I haven’t had any issues with the nozzle. I installed it without any problems, and after a simple calibration it prints great.

Since changing to the ObXdian Hotend on my Bambu X1 Carbon, all prints fail. Don't buy, just use the far cheaper stock hotends from Bambu.

While everything hardware related is excellent, the fact that Bambu doesn't have a dedicated software profile for this extruder, when they do have one forE3D's high flow one, is a paint point. Hopefully that comes soon, 5 stars as soon as that is available.

This is really a must have, wonderful improvement and time, but also quality as well

All I got through was a few calibration prints on my P1S with PLA, ABS, and TPU, and this nozzle clogged on the TPU using the recommended settings. I followed all E3D's troubleshooting recommendations, including about 40 attempts at cold pulls using all types of filament, and nothing worked. E3D offered me a 20% discount on my next purchase...sure, like I'm going to spend another $100 on a nozzle that clogs with basic filament using recommended settings. They don't stand behind their product.

Brand new.. 6-8 hours of printing asa-cf filament and all I've got is a paperweight now. Good luck unclogging this thing. Don't buy

Great product. fast shipping!

Not a complete hotend assembly. You’re going to have to add additional components befofe adding to your printer.

Great product, now to order an extra fan and thermistor door quicker swaps! Also ordered a standard 0.2 but doubt Ill use out much now that i have this. Just future prodding if i ever need detailed prints.

Works great. No issues. Easy to swap.

Perfect for my hard filament.

So far this is an amazing hot end. Far superior to the stock. I pulled a full roll of Nylon CF out of the dryer, and its been printing amazing right out of the gate. Also, Cheers to the fast shipping.
