Compact air fryer recommendations for high-temp filaments?

I am trying to dry high-temp filaments such as PET-CF. I tried regular filament dryers (Sunlu S2) at 70°C, but realized these filaments only absorb moisture rather than dry, even at these temperatures. I also tried building my own dryer using my printer bed, which got me to 85°C, but even that isn't enough, filaments are gaining weight even while drying. I consulted with people printing this filament, and they confirmed that I need at least 100-120°C to properly dry them, there is simply no way to dry them in lower temperatures, no matter how long I wait.

So I am trying to find a compact air fryer (compact means just large enough for one filament spool and the smallest overall dimensions), because I am extremely pressed for space. Ideally it would be as small as that Sunlu S2 (265 x 275 x 118 mm) or as close to that as possible. Needs to have decent temperature hold control and no timeout, because I don't want to be replacing electronics with a custom solution, I have enough ongoing projects as it is.

Sourcing in the EU. Any recommendations? Please only suggest devices that can actually reach 120°C - I already looked up food dehydrators, PrintDry Pro, etc. - none of them are even closed in terms of temperature.
