As i had spare hygrometers, i came up with the idea to monitor moisture during the drying process in my Sunlu S1. I do not use the upper hole to feed Filament through it, so i used it to screw mount the holder into place.

Designed for the the cheap "Mini Hygrometers" with a size of 48 × 28 mm².
Paid 10€ for 8 of them on Amazon.de
Only downside is, their contrast is getting quite low at 55°C but they still work fine.

Any M4 threaded insert with an outer diameter of 6mm should work, if available choose a longer one as there is only one screw to fix everything.

A simple m4 screw with a self locking nut will work, too i guess

Just clip the Hygrometer into the frame and screw it to the lid of the dryer.

Be careful when tightening the screw as the transparent lid may crack.
I added a printable washer that has a slightly curved side.

Everything should print without supports, i would recommend PETG.

Modeled in Tinkercad, chamfered in Layerling. ;)
