I’ve seen many debates about the need to dry PLA filaments. Looks like some people never need to do anything while others dry the hell out of them before printing.

I’ve been recommended once to print at 10% RH… After 48h of drying, I can barely get below 37%…

So: what’s the humidity level in the room your printer is?

    I have humidity sensors in both my dryboxes and outside.

    Where I live humidity in summer is 40-60% and the dryboxes will max out at 40% if left untouched.

    In winter it’s 20-30%.

    Petg starts having issues at 30 and you can hear the water boiling at 40
