So tried out some PETG for the first time, and the first couple prints went really well. but I believe it's picked up quite a bit of moisture, sitting in the basement.

What's the current recommendation for a filament dryer? there was one on /r/3dprintingdeals a bit back, a Sunlu S2. is the S1 good enough, or should someone who's fairly recreational with everything spring for a S2? I see food dehydrators recommended sometimes, is there anything specific to look for in one?

I have the sovol one, eSun one that does high temps, and the original sunlu one. Sovol had a weird issue where I have to turn it back on a few times until it stays working. The eSun one will likely be my main one since I started to use more exotic filaments that need higher heat.
