I had clog in PTFE tube and I want to upgrade hotend in my printer instead of changing or cleaning tubes. What hotend would be the best choice? I'm thinking about spider V3 from creality because it will be easy to install. But I read that it needs firmware upgrade and i cant find it for my printer(https://www.creality.com/pages/download-spider-high-temperature-hotend). So can you suggest what could be the best choice or how to find firmware for my printer? Btw I'm not printing a lot of things and I just want something that will need as little maintenance as possible.

While the Creality Spider V3 hotend may be a popular choice for some users, it's important to ensure compatibility with your specific printer model and firmware. If you can't find the necessary firmware on the manufacturer's website, you may want to reach out to Creality's customer support for assistance.
Alternatively, there are other reliable hotend options available on the market that are compatible with a wide range of printers and require minimal maintenance. Some popular choices include the E3D V6 hotend or the Micro Swiss all-metal hotend. These hotends are known for their durability and reliable performance.
Before making a decision, make sure to verify compatibility with your printer model and consult with the manufacturer or community forums for any additional recommendations.

Thank you. It appears to be precisely what I require, and it's much more affordable. I'm going to place an order, but are there any benefits to replacing the entire hotend?
Not really unless you go for something specific like more flow etc
Do check if thats the right one
Thats just the first thing that popped up
It seems to be compatible with both S1 and S1 Pro, so that's promising. However, if it turns out to be otherwise, it's not a major issue since the cost is quite low.
