How much heat do ssr's give off? I will be using a few on my new build. I am using 230v system with a 2000w element. So at full power my load consumption should be less than 10A, so do i need a head sink if i use a 20A ssr. and if so can i get away with using a 40 or 60 amp rated ssr without using a heat sink. my goal is low cost and i can get the higher rating ssr's for only pennies more than the 20. I guess my main question is if i use higher rated ssr's can i get away without buying heatsinks?
