The video centers on the testing and development of V1. However, we have also created and published V2. 

Important Update: Since publication of the video, we have seen incredible success (10% humidity) using V1 + molecular sieves instead of desiccant. Feel free to test whichever version and combination you would like. 

As for V2, the system is made of two main parts:

• A silica gel basket with a closing lid

• A support frame with a slot for a fan

The fan forces air through the silica gel, increasing efficiency and helping the desiccant absorb humidity much faster compared to passive systems.

Drying & Reuse

If you print the parts in ASA or other heat-resistant materials, you can easily:

• Remove the silica basket

• Place it directly in the oven to dry the silica gel

• Put it back into the system after regeneration

This makes the system reusable and very convenient for long-term use.

Available Versions

You will find two different formats:

350g Silica Boxes (x2)

• Designed for spool warehouse configuration

• Compatible with external Polydryer setup

215g Silica Boxes (x2)

• Designed for AMS or Roller setups

• Compatible with external Polydryer setup

Suggested Configurations

For a 2-module HDRY setup:

• Place the Polydryer in the lower module

• Install 2 silica boxes in the upper module instead of the second Polydryer

For a single module setup:

• You can use 2× 215g silica boxes without any Polydryer
