Review: Great for keeping 3D printer filament dry - I use these with my 3D printer filament and they’ve worked really well. You get a good amount for the money and they bring the humidity down surprisingly quickly. The biggest advantage for me is that they can be dried out and reused rather than having to replace them every time they become saturated, which makes them ideal for long-term filament storage. Very effective, reusable and good value. I’ll definitely keep using them.
Review: Great reusable desiccant, works well with 3D printing filament - I bought these to use inside my Bambu Labs AMS system in order to help dry out filaments when stored and in use. I have a humidity sensor that I have placed inside the AMS which is hooked up to a HA console so I can read the output. My measurements before adding this in was around 40% humidity. After printing containers and placing a fair amount of this inside, my measurements got as low as 18% after a couple of days. I've used a fair amount of this now and have had to "recharge" the desiccant a couple of times. First I will say that the desiccant does change colour and does reset back to it's original state when heated in the microwave. Not only does the colour change but you can see the moisture leaving through the amount of steam produced. Due to the amount of steam and how hot the desiccant does get during this period I did tend to ignore the instructions that say to leave it in the microwave for something like 8 minutes and instead do it in bursts of 1-2 minutes. I would also recommend using a glass dish or something that can withstand high temperatures as I did try using a plastic container on a small amount and the desiccant did end up melted into the container. Overall would definitely recommend and have even given some to a friend for the same purpose as I have used it and they have had similar results.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If all the beads are dry, should they not all be orange? Why are most of them transparent in the picture? Do they arrive all orange or... ?**
A: Most of the beads are clear, just the orange ones go greenish-blue when they’re “wet”.  It is very evident when the beads need drying.

**Q: Can the beads be put in the oven to dry when they're in the mini bags provided (ones w the drawstrings)? Or do they need to come out of the bags first**
A: Yes they should come out the bag. There are clear instructions how to bake off the moisture. I use several baking trays and recharge the beads in the oven. Tip is to regularly open the oven to allow moisture out to speed up the drying process.

**Q: Can the beads be used loose on larger areas? We had a flood in a wine cellar where we don't wish to use heat.**
A: No. You would need such a huge quantity. They are intended to keep contents in containers dry, not whole rooms. For a damp basement you would most probably need a dehumidifier.

**Q: what sort of bags would i need to look for for this product? what're the drawstring bags provided called? thanks.**
A: We bought nylon pop socks and used those tied in a knot as the aesthetics weren’t important for the way we use them in our stock bags.  Basically the fabric needs to be breathable so the beads can absorb moisture.
