Option to upgrade nozzle when buying MK4S?

I just purchased the MK4S upgrade kit and it appears that about a third of the price is going to a nozzle that will have limited utility to me. It would be nice to be able to pay an extra ~$30 to get just the E3D Prusa Nozzle: High Flow ObXidian™ instead of the brass version.

 

Looking forward to the upgrade regardless.

Another possible option would be a cheaper upgrade, but without any nozzle for those of us running after market nozzles already.

I agree. I ordered a 0.6 HF ObXidian with the upgrade kit and it would have been nice to get the 0.4 HF ObXidian with the kit. I'm tempted to cancel the order and get the fan and shroud elsewhere, or wait until they are listed with the replacement parts.

My thoughts. I will never order upgrade. I will wait for spare parts. Why?

  • I have already printed all extruder parts from PC-CF.
  • I dont need new xLCD cover.
  • I will never use HF nozzles due to impossible successful cold pull. (I have installed a copper heat block for better thermal transfer)

I will order wifi, nfc modules and fan only.

I think including the LCD cover was a bad idea, ignoring costs it also isn't worth the effort to change out.

If the fan/wifi/NFC parts were available now I would cancel my order.
