Please tell me in the comments what do you think, and which one is your favourite.

i was gonna say it looks like a gunpla but its probably more stable and less fragile

How many cuts are in this clip 😂 looks like it took forever to edit

bro why does it sound like chips 😭

Whats the result

The middle part would have been nice to be printed in a soft material, or better just a standard silicone sealing, to really seal the whole thing :D

One thing I have to say is that it is really well done from an engineering and design perspective! It just isn't working for me.

Mine was originally at around 24% but when I changed filament they went up to 37% and stayed there which is not much less than the humidity in the room which is around 45%. Plus the filament made weird noises when being used.

This dryer is no good. Because it has a heating plates and no air circulation. So the bottom of the filament in the roll can fuse them self together. Creality is much better design for drying filament

I set up my drier so that I can feed filament out of its enclosure while printer is working on a part. I dry the filament ahead of time and during the printing process. This is particularly helpful with objects that take a long time to print.

you know there is a v2 of this dryer that works better ye?

What do you mean by your mistake was printing the enclosure in PETG because the moisture is still in it? Wouldn't the filament print dry even if it was saturated with moisture?

The problem with printing the enclosure in PETG is that it will transfer moisture from outside to inside, because PETG will not stop absorbing moisture once its printed. Try, maibe, spray painting it on the ouside with some clear lacker to close those pores.

So the new version solves this issue?

Looks great!

3mf ?

stl?

Very nice

Love it boss

The version I printed had full isolation of the sensors. I tried silica bags, no benefit. But w silica beads, I get 10% internal humidity, 39% room humidity. Since I like PCTG and even some PLA is better very dry, it helps me. Otherwise get “pops” while printing and filament junks up.

Thanks for doing this video. I'm wondering if before you print again in PLA, what might happen if you sprayed a clear sealer (spray can) on the inside and outside of all the parts. I don't have my unit yet, but also if there might be a way to utilize ptfe tubing from the enclosure to the inputs of the AMS to help close off the holes in the enclosure. I'd also dump the external hygrometer just another possible place for air to leak in. It's a neat idea, maybe the OP might investigate some o-ring type seals on the covers one day which would help as well. Thanks again.

Sorry but as good as this looks there's no way it's going to work, moisture is getting in there because nothing is sealed. You'll get the same effect putting humidifier bags near and around your AMS lite

Use reusable silica beads

Mine stays at 10% when filled with silica beads. Outside humidity in my room is typically around 40%. I love this print. I boosted it 2 times in the app.

jesus christ stop reposting tiktok and using ai tiktok is just crap reposting is a horrid thing you should never do ai is slurping down cooling water and emptying lakes and ruining artists' lives and wasting electric

The problem is that there’s an error in the printing of the part where the sensors are located. The bottom sensor should be isolated, with no contact with the internal section. I had already watched another video of this model, so I quickly noticed that this part was missing in your print. As a result, both sensors are reading the internal humidity, while also allowing some external humidity to enter.

Did it get any better?

I think the humidity issue may be 1 of 2 things: 1) your silica bags are already used up and can't absorb more. Dry them out, get new ones or use silica beads. 2) I can't tell, but what I saw in the video, you didn't put the cap on the "outside" hygrometer to block it off from the rest of the enclosure. Little flat arch looking piece that snaps on the back of the outside hygrometer....OR just print one of the singles. I don't really care what the outside humidity is as long as I know my inside is sitting (currently) at a comfy 14%.

Did u find the file on thingiverse

Minecraft ❤

I printed mine yesterday and the humidity inside is half what is outside. So, it works for me. I used PETG and desiccant beads.

To insert the filament, remove the silicate holder first and insert the filament, then put the holder back in afterwards.

I printed mine from PLA and used beads not packets. They work great for me. I get a difference of about 40%. I tried the packets and saw no change. Then I bought new color changing beads and saw a huge difference. I also live in a very high humidity area. So with that being said I do have to renew my beads often. The good thing is they can be renewed back to life in the oven for just a few hours. I bought them on Amazon. Hope this helps.

All you need to do is paint them and then you get a really cool keychain

I would actually loose the outside sensor.. and replace it with mini fan.. make an air inlet to pass through the silica beads.. to pull dry air.. in and the fan with extract the air out.. the exterior humidity sensor can be easily mounted somewhere else..

I've only printed one side so far (using PLA) and it's working pretty good. Mine is at 16% humidity inside (outside is 40%) after the first day. However, I used loose silica gel beads instead of those packets. I assume it'll drop more after it dries out the PLA inside that's never been dried too. Started printing the second half today. IMO, it works.

Hi, I think you need to recharge your silica bags by putting it in an oven. Or try with fresh silica beads. 👍 The reason your humidity isn't getting lower might be because the silica in the bags are already saturated.

its like trying to use a sieve to hold water

I was looking at the 3mf file, and I saw that the outside covers are split into two horizontal and two vertical covers. But I couldn't any difference between the two covers! Does anyone know what's the difference between the vertical and horizontal covers? When the AMS is standing on the table on its own, that is considered horizontally, right?

I think you need to print this in PLA otherwise it's like wrapping a sponge inside of another sponge. I printed mine in PLA and, if the hygrometer is to be trusted, it drops the humidity by 20 to 25% compared to the outside. But loading and unloading filament is a pita and often leads to unspooling during unloading. The other thing I do is use activated alumina instead of silica gel. AA seems to last longer and pull more moisture from the air. You can safely refresh them in an oven. Would be nice if there were locations on the spool shells for more desiccant too.

Well that was a total waste of time.

this is the first build I've seen where the humidity didn't drop appreciably - others I believe used PLA - could that REALLY be the difference? Perhaps bad humidistats or both were external instead of internal? Perhaps bad or insufficient desiccant? Maybe the desiccant had been exposed to the high humidity already and were "full"?

Very interesting concept and I'm pretty sure BL is aware of the PETG H2O absorption situation which is why they state in their Ad. to dry your filament. Thanks for sharing and happy printing. 👍

I think the main problem is that you printed the enclosure in PETG which still absorbs moisture and so your dessicant is busy drying out the enclosure and filament. Maybe try coating the enclosure parts with spray paint to seal them.

Please please, do a detailed video on X1 Plus, without skipping anything and for a beginner installation and why of this mod

I ended up just putting the AMS lite inside one of my old enclosure for creality with a cheap active dehumidifier that can be reactivated inside. Works much better and cheaper than having to print.

That wad as expected, that it will not do much for humitidy. It's not airtight enough, compared to the X1/P1S AMS with its rubber gasket and sollid enclosure. Maybe it would have been helpfull if there was an option to build a heating element into it. But neverteless it looks cool, and it will keep dust away from it, which will also be an important factor. I btw really don't understand why BL choose to make an open "AMS". Ok, itcs reducing the costs this way and still enables the cistomer to print multicolor. But BL also should know that it's not good to store filament in the open like that for a longer time. They should at least had designed a optional enclosure like this design. But then solid build from plastic and acrylic with decent rubber gaskets, like the AMS unit. Maybe they should just pay the designer for using the design and taking it in production under his/her license. And sell it as an optional accessorie. Then people can still make their own choices. - Buying a low budget multicolor printer as it is. - Printing the enclosure. - Buying the decent and solid version from BL.

I bought 6 of those cheap amazon hygrometers and compared them to my two more expensive ones. Only two were accurate.

This is so cool dude

What printer do you use?
