Farenheit 450 ! That's Ray Bradbury territory. 😋
I prefer to use dedicated driers, even if I agree that they're overpriced. Ovens usually aren't able to keep a very accurate temperature and hot air management, so to speak, isn't as good as a well designed filament drier.

What I wonder about with gas ovens is: part of the combustion products is H2O... does that have an impact on lower temperature drying in said over?

I'm thinking of picking up one of these as an "annealer oven" CHEFMAN Multifunctional Digital Air Fryer+ Rotisserie, Dehydrator, Convection Oven Can't beat $79 plus it has a rotisserie feature 😉

This one looks better: Cuisinart Air Fryer, 4.5-Quart Basket Fryer and the basket is exactly the size of a filament spool. Thinking of added a vertical spool and a Bowden coupler to it... Certainly cheaper than the SUNLU E2

H-O-L-Y C-R-A-P! Air Fryer.... you're an evil genius! <Golf Clap> Damn...

Yup. And the first roll I will test/sacrifice is my IEMAI PC-CF. If it accidentally turns it into molten slag, then I'll know it didn't work but then no loss...
Oh, and they have a "2 spool" version as well: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FNT5M8VS?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

"That's not filament drier it's a air frier!"
Said like "That's no moon. It's a space station...!"
RE: PC printing on Core One
Just be careful, this is why ovens are a bad idea for filament drying, they are very likely to have quite a variance in temperature. eg you set it to 80 degrees and that thing could be swinging between 70 and 90, giving an average of 80 degrees. I'd be extremely cautious of the cheap ones.
If you do get one then definitely give it a test run with a wireless temp probe in it first so you can see if the variation is substantial.

I have a Creality SpacePi X4 already. In my case I'll be using it for annealing printed parts. If the temp holds then I'll use it for PA.
