PLA Flex off trade me .. trail

Hi I tried some PLA Flex that was on sale on trademe from Sandbrooks in manukau , ( unbranded) so "you pays your money and takes a chance" after reading on many forums about the Extruder temp needing to be around the 230 deg's, I discovered that 185 to 190 deg's gave me the best results..

That stuff looks the same as I get from Hobbyist.PLA should not need more than 195 deg.C,
you might have got confused with ABS,which does need higher temps.

Without popping a thermocouple sensor in the same heat envelope as your hot end and independantly verifying your temperature is acurate....
