Finally replaced the MDP1933 MOSFETs with beefier IRFB4110 MOSFETs, but boy was it expensive!
Whenever we replace blown MOSFETs, its a good practice to replace the entire array even if one MOSFET is blown and the others work perfectly fine since you never know if the voltage spike or whatever calamity had partially destroyed it (it would fail to close properly, dropping a lot of voltage)
Atleast the inverter’s been fixed now (or is it..?) and outputs a clean 230 V RMS.
Tested with a 20 W lamp and it works well.
Need to replace the 35 A automotive fuse on it as well since it was also blown due to the direct short that occurred, I’m using a piece of solder wire as a temporary substitute (not recommended btw)
Need to test with bigger loads to ensure that its back at business and nothing else was damaged due to the overload.
Also worked on the Instructable for the past two days while waiting to get the MOSFETs.
