Normal Temperature fluctuations

I am seeing fluctuations from 198 to 204 with a set point of 200C during prints. I have the new spliced and soldered connections for the thermistor and the thermistor seems to be seated nicely.

What temperature ranges should I be seeing during the print?

Thanks,

Re: Normal Temperature fluctuations

Sounds about normal for an "untuned" hotend. That's about what I had before as well.

After PID tuning and saving the settings thanks to the new xxx.10 Firmware, fluctuations are way lower now.

See more about how to tune your PID settings here:

Re: Normal Temperature fluctuations

Put "Blue Socks" on and do an PID. After that the fluctuation is only one digit, max. 1°C.
