 One of the oddities of the RepRap community is the heated bed circuitry on the very popular RAMPS controller. It's undersized for modern beds and this is known for years.

Here we show how to connect this switch to a RAMPS and how to tweak the popular firmwares to work with the new switch instead of the old one.+Anyways.
