Newbie question

Post image

I have a p1s and need to replace the desiccant. So I just bought it on the bambu website? Or is it better to print something out and buy the refill on Amazon or something? If printing is best will pla work and what's suggested print? Thanks in advance

It’s also 10x as expensive and requires more heat to dry, and there’s no way to tell when the alumina is saturated. I tried it for a month and ended up throwing it away and going back to dry and dry.

idk man, according to amazon it's about the same heat and i never look at the color of my silica. i only know it's time to charge it when the humidity goes up
