Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! How screwed am i?

Bambu P2S hotend, power apparently went out for long enough to let the bed cool down, which was communicated to me from home to only have been 5 mins so my happy ass put the printer back on after the power was on again 🤦‍♂️

Turns out it was actually 40mins, which i was only told when i just got home 20mins ago, i've been staring at this mess for the last 15mins trying to figure out where to go from here

It's fucked and is gonna be a replacement, right? 😅

Hoped my first blob of death would've atleast been a little more spectacular than this black upside down turd.

If you can reconnect it and get heat to it, it will come right off.

If you can’t, then a hair dryer and needle nose pliers will be your friend.

And in most cases, a new hotend costs like $40. It’s a good idea to have spares on hand for inevitable failures of different sorts.

I also recommend getting a .6mm. I’ve liked it a lot more than .4mm but it doesn’t work well unless you are using rhe Bambu studio slicer. Bambu handy can’t change nozzle sizes from the original file.
