The MOSFETs used on RAMPS aren't exactly the best possible switches, and you lose some power in the on-resistance of the MOSFETS.
Hi dude again, I just ordered a 350 watt mean-well power supply and a 25 amp solid state relay off ebay. I will be running this bed on 24v through the relay. I need this bed to get hot quick and stay hot/uniform.

Do you have any other suggestions other then what I am doing? Does a SSR suck up lots of power, should I use a mechanical relay? I think my PSU is overkill, but I need it. I have 3 production machines that my business depends on and these beds just take forever to get hot, time = money. Thanks again
