What's funny about this is that this material is a fantastic illustration of just how under-egged the XPlus-3 hotend is. That thing is a 50W ceramic, except it's nearly Volcano length, which would normally need in excess of _100W_. While Qidi claim that it can hit 350C, in practice, they end up having their PET-CF profile at 8 VF because too much more drains heat from the block too fast for the heater to keep up.
