Hi everybody? I live in Norway and I find it really difficult to buy color changing silica gel balls here. I want to use it to keep and control better my filament rolls while they are stored and also to the AMS on my Bambu X1C. The only alternative I found is on Aliexpress, just a 500gr bottle. I was wondering if anybody else out there has any better alternative.
China or local reseller of China products. Pricing should be 5-8€/kg for the domestic reseller.
Don’t buy blue stuff. Buy orange gel.
Reason: Blue is the old stuff with a Cobalt-based colour indicator (CoCl2). The common indicator for orange gel is also causing cancer but not as bad as CoCl2 (technically it is suspected for the orange stuff. In reality it is just a question of time before they go from suspected/likely to they do).
I bought a 2lbs container of it off Amazon.
I ask around me, to my coworkers and my family if they can keep it when they buu clothes, just in order to be ecologic and don’t buy it/throw it.
I do the same with the small bags so I can toss them inside the filament bags when I store them but I need some extra for the AMS to keep the filament dry inside while they’re waiting to be used there. Specially the changing color one as it’s reusable (buy once, use for years)
