I bought this to install on my Ender 3 v2 which has the microswiss hotend and direct drive combo. The main reason was I was tired to having to stock two types of nozzles: mk8 nozzles just for my ender 3 v2 and V6 style nozzles for my other printers. This heater fits perfectly onto the heatbreak from my microswiss and allows me to use V6 nozzles.It heats up very quickly. I preheat my bed before starting my prints, and when I start the print, the ceramic heater heats up to 240C by the time the printer finishes homing, so within 1-2 seconds of the homing finishing, it starts printing, which is pretty nice.Only downside is that the temperature isn't quite as stable as my old heater, it fluctuates +- 1 degree, but I'm still getting smooth perimeters, so not a big deal. I had to adjust my z offset slightly, as this heater is a bit shorter with the nozzle installed than my previous one, but not a big deal. Definitely would recommend. I'll update this if I have any issues, but for now it's working amazingly.
