PRUSA i3 Mk2 MOSFET Upgrade - NERDVille Guide by NERDVille

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

If you own a PRUSA i3 MK2 then you'll either have experienced or heard of the connectors to the heated burning out and you may have even seen an episode about this I covered on my YouTUBE channel, NERDVille.
Well, this has happened to me twice now and i've always been cautious of using ABS, PETG as the bed needs to be hotter and increasing the risk of another connector burning out.
So, enough is enough I decided to upgrade my PRUSA with a separate MOSFET that takes this load off the controller board and then placed this in the most optimal place that I think you can on the MK2
Purchase a new MOSFET with the larger heatsink as pictured in my YouTUBE Guide
eBay has loads and the are fairly cheap, here is a link of one in the UK:
