AMS lite swap from A1 mini to A1

Does anyone did that? What`s going on with ptfe tubes (from A1mini), are they long enough? Any suggestions or information will be appreciate, thanks in advance!

By the looks of the store item (A1 PTFE) the lengths are different.

If you happen to just carry the 4000mm roll of PTFE you can always follow the lengths and cut them yourself. This is the method I go about, grab yourself the roll and you’ll be able to replace them as you go then simply take the older ones and size up the cut with the replacement PTFE.

I bought the A1 mini combo back in December, and bought an A1 in May. since I was planning to print some large items, I went ahead and swapped the ams lite over to the A1. what I did was buy some ptfe tube, and cut 2 lengths just a little longer that the longer 2 lengths, worked great, and is still working.

Exactly, the lengths are different because the AMS lite is slightly further way from the print head on the A1 (not mini).

The PTFE tubes do not need to be an exact measurement, just safe from dragging, pulling or catching something.
