Heatsoak with mosquito magnum on EVA 2.4
Hi guys,
I'm getting heatsoak printing slow solid infills with my setup and am wondering if this is something that people have run into before. The heatsoak is causing a thing puck of filament to form in the TINY gap between the PTFE tube and the mosquito's heatbreak. The issue really only presents itself in areas when the flow is very low, so several layers worth of solid infill in small perimeters causing the flowrate to stay low for long periods of time. (I am open to at least one comment with "just dial up your accel yolo")
I think this may be partially caused by EVA's design possibly being too constrictive on the hotend cooling fan, or possibly said fan just not being powerful enough.
Is this an issue anyone else has dealt with and do you have a solution for it?

I had heat creep clog a hotend when I was using the wrong fan with mismatched voltage (24V fan on a 12V supply). The fan would run and most of the time it was fine but with lots of small extrusions and subsequent retractions, the nozzle would clog because the fan wasn’t spinning at max speed.
you absolute genius, I think the jumper was set to 12V from the factory
