Do we know which one performs better? More Importantly, when using both left and right on an H2C do we think you’re getting the same layer?
What do you mean with „getting the same layer”?
I am using HF 0.4 on the left and HF 0.4 induction on the right. So far I do not see a difference.

I guess I mean melt bead.
I’ve printed a ton of stuff that uses both left and right in same prints…I’ve seen no difference in either type, Both seem to work exceptionally well!

I found this video a while back and I think it answers your question.

This definitely does. Do we feel like maybe both hot ends should’ve been induction? It seems to have better thermal control.
The induction set up certainly costs more then a ceramic heater. While less consistent then induction, ceramic is ‘good enough’ if vortek isn’t involved. H3 will probably be a dual induction-dual vortek though.
When doing multiple colors/materials its easy to see one difference the induction one heats up way faster. When printing the same 2 material prints on a h2d vs h2c the h2c wins in speed because during the switch it gains time because of the faster heating up.
I think in the future they will all be (2 or 4 nozzles in the head) induction but on the first release in the h2c it made sense to keep the old one as it was until the induction was proven in battle and can take its place as the default on most machines (even if not using vortek, using a slide to install/remove it works nice too). Its a little more $$ for us to buy but having one way forward would make sense to me.
