Creality K1 woes (lemmy.ca)

Everything was going great until I had to replace some parts. The nozzles I bought as backup? They're supposed to be for the K1 but they didn't fit. That's how I found out I'll need nozzles that cost $20 each, or more.

The hotend kit from Amazon said K1 but the JSTs don't match. Pulled the wires to swap between the old part and the new one, and the wires don't fit either.

Nothing I'm buying for a K1 actually fits my machine. Creality refuses to answer me or help.

Anyone know what's happening here?

I'm editing to add that the parts I'm buying are official Creality parts.

I don’t one why you’re asking me these questions. The link works for me - maybe it’s your adblocker. I believe it was only the extruder that was different. Creality support was pretty bad, but I’ve pressed them to eventually send me replacement parts when I needed them

    Well I wasn't asking you. I just think the whole situation is bonkers. I'm going to see about reporting them to consumer protection or whatever.

    Good luck with that, they don’t care too much about respecting OSS licensing either. Aside from that I’m enjoying my K1 - after I’ve modified it ;)
