artifex 2 marlin 1.1.9 custom thermistor table (no replies)

Hi, I recently decided to update the firmware on my artifex 2 duo to marlin 1.1.9, i have had moderate success but when i was setting the thermal settings in the configuration.h file i found out that the old firmware used a custom thermistor table for the artifex 2 hbp. this table was definied as 101 in the stock firmware. i was able to make a custom thermistor table file for 101 and i copied the values from the stock firmware table into the custom table file i made, but i noticed that the stock table seems to have duplicate entries, should i remove the duplicates or should i leave them in? i have uploaded this firmware to my printer and it does work but the hbp is noticably slower to heat, and more unstable during heating than it was before the update. i have pasted a small snippet of the thermistor table below as an example. i have messaged 3dmakerworld to try and find out the exact make/model of thermistor that is used on the hbp but have not heard back from them yet.
