i have a 110v 240mm x 240mm 350w heated bed, what would be a good power limit? right now i have it at 205 (to be specific im talking about #define MAX_BED_POWER in marlin)

255 = 100% PWM is possible. The reason to reduce the power is not to overheat the onboard MOSFET, but with a SSR this is not necessary.

Make sure your SSR doesn't overheat, but I would doubt it tongue sticking out smiley

These things are usually capable of driving high current. 350W is a little bit over 3A so there should not be problems!
