This redesigned mount holds the lower dryer thermistor in place so the pad doesn't overheat.

The GratKit filament dryer does very well, but the thermistor mount in the bottom is attached to the bottom and sometimes loses adhesion. The thermistor moves around or falls out causing the heating plate to burn up the polyimide film heater. This model helps hold the thermistor in place, and also offers the option to screw it into the bottom via the base.
I printed this in ABS vertically with the slightly smaller hole at the bottom. I used a 2.5 mm zip tie to hold the wires and thermistor in.
I attached a picture of the two variations of mount that are factory installed, as well as my make and install.
(Shout-out GratKit was very responsive and sent me a replacement heater film to make the repair.)
