PT1000 E3D attachment

Hello,

I am trying to print higher temp materials, I have bought the e3d components Plated Copper Heater Block, Titanium Heat Break, Nozzle X, and High-temperature Heater Cartridge. As per the e3d Temperature Upgrade Path Guide ( https://e3d-online.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016227698-V6-Maximum-Temperature-Upgrade-Path-) but am un-sure of the following

I have a Prusa MK3S, and wanted to know if the PT1000 sensors end (yellow circle) ( https://e3d-online.com/products/pt1000-temperature-sensor), like shown in the attached pic will fit into Einsy Retro 1.0 ( https://ultimachine.com/products/einsy-retro?variant=5522575818782) which I believe is the one that comes with the MK3S, without extra modifications?

Both ends do seem to look the same for Prusa thermistor and the e3d Pt1000 ones

there will also be bunch of firmware temp changes that will need to be made, i believe.

if it fits ... use it!

Fairly standard fittings

If it looks the same and easily plugs, it should work.

as per the the chat i had with E3D they said it fits on Einsy Retro 1.0 (mk3s comes with i think) but it does not have the locking mechanism that the Prusa thermistors have but they also said the JTS connectors can be replaced with a version that has the locking ability's but needs to be crimped, and should contact the  ( https://ultimachine.com ) board makes for the right molex lock connector part number
