If you are upgrading your FolgerTech FT5 to the FT black heat bed that they say draws 19 amps, you may be considering using one of the
BIQU Heat Bed Power Module Expansion Hot Bed MOS Tube for 3D Printer being sold on Amazon for $10 plus some change. It's good for 25 amps. In actuality, mine doesn't even get warm.
This little box will contain it and provide some ventilation as it sits on top of the control box. I ran the control wire down through the hole in the box and a drilled hole in the top of the cabinet. I drilled a 1/2" hole in the back and the top of the cabinet to reroute the bed wiring.
The box just dresses things up. The top just slides on and the module fits down over the 4 pins..You can hold it in place by mushrooming the pins, putting a spot of silicone or hot melt glue on them or just let it float as I did.
