Python AMS - Hygrometer (Rectangular) Holder for Silica Gel Box
Description
PDFAbout
Notice: This is for the rectangular Hygrometer, there is one available for the round ones too!
This is a Hygrometer / Thermometer holder for the Python AMS - Silica Gel Box. If fits both the normal and XL remix of the box.
It comes with two parts. Part one holds the hygrometer and part two is the mount for the box. Simple slide out the hygrometer from the mount when drying the silica gel beads, it's using a dovetail system.
I recommend leaving the mount in at all times (when drying as well) as the tabs are very slim and will break quite easily if you remove and reinstall the mount.
There are holes on the side of the holder for a temperature and humidity reading while the rear is blocked. The rear is blocked so it doesn't get a reading directly from the beads but instead of the air in the enclosure.
Keep in mind these hygrometers are not highly accurate but they are usually close enough for a fair reading.
The mount can be placed just about anywhere you like, angled or even on top of the silica gel box if you have your Python wall mounted.

BOM - Bill of materials
You need a small rectangular hygrometer (mini) which you can pick up from AliExpress for example.
It is also compatible with hygrometer included with the PolyDryer if you have those already.
What to print
Everything prints without supports and the parts are so small the infill doesn't really matter but I usually recommend 15% gyroid infill and 3 walls.
