The New Hotness

Another month of data from all those Polydryer boxes:

	7 Oct 2025			8 Oct
Filament	%RH	Weight – g	Wt gain – g	%RH
PETG White	28	26.6	1.6	19
PETG Black	25	26.6	1.6	20
PETG Orange	29	26.6	1.6	21
PETG Blue	23	26.7	1.7	15
PETG-CF Blue	26	26.6	1.6	23
PETG-CF Black	23	26.4	1.4	20
PETG-CF Gray	30	26.5	1.5	26
TPU	28	26.3	1.3	27
Empty 1 → White	35	26.7	1.7	37
Empty 2	36	27.1	2.1	24

The “PETG White” spool in the top line is nearly empty, so I loaded a new spool into the “Empty 1” box.

The “Empty 1” 35% value on 7 Oct matches the other empty box, the desiccant having pulled the humidity down from the 51% basement level. The weight of the water pulled out seems low compared to “Empty 2”, as they both started with a fresh batch of basement air while changing the desiccant in September.

They’re again filled with 25 g of alumina beads, although I’m beginning to think silica gel does a better job.
