This is the most requested video to date! Today I show you how to install a 12v silicon heat pad and MOSFET onto the Folgertech FT-5 3D Printer. This is a super easy mod and is also cheap! Enjoy!
****NOTE****
Despite what I said polarity *DOES* matter between the MKS board and the MOSFET. It still *DOES NOT* matter from the silicon heat pad to the MOSFET.

Update:
The Trigorilla is out of stock more than in stock so here is alternative MOSFET and Case.
