Karma did it, and I'm wondering why no one else has done it.
I mean, if you could push a 6 fet or 12 fet controller to it's full potential of 75a per fet (more if you do the zombiess mod) you'd be looking at as much power as a 18 fet or even a 36 fet in a much smaller package. And you could put whatever size caps you want into your custom case.
My 18 fet died, so I'm really thinking hard about doing this mod. I'm just looking for some input on calculating heating. I figure the oil will wick away the heat from the fet cases and especially from the heatsink. And then the box itself will give a much larger surface area to radiate heat. Greater surface area + great heat capacity = monster power?
