    Improvements:
    1. Add a filter on the air intake.
    2. The lamp should be placed above the food since a lot of food will drip while drying.
    3. Add a pan in the bottom that will collect said drippings from food.
    4. While cardboard is cheap, use some other easily accessible material that is less known to be sensitive to moisture.
    5. Hot air rises. So air should be forced in from the top and be let out from the bottom side.

    Just a thought. Checking the power consumption on the Heat lamp and power supply so you could use the smallest inverter possible and add in a 12v battery as well as a solar pannel so that you could have a complete off-grid solution that doesn't require constant sun to work.

    It seems you'd be better off buying an actual dehydrator that stores more food and can maintain the desired temperature inside so you don't constantly run a heater. There's also less risk from the sketchy wiring and heat lamp in a cardboard box.

    Hot Tip : You can buy 12v ceramic hair straightener heaters on ebay for a couple of bucks, you can then run it all on the same power supply (one with more than 0.75a than in the video though. the 2.1a one i use works fine). Its what i do for my biltong (jerky) boxes. I put them in a little terracotta plate from a broken planter to keep it off the cardboard, even though i don't have them hot enough to burn the cardboard/foil.

  • @abhimanyuyadav1520
    @abhimanyuyadav1520 6 лет назад +4

    Hey KOR cutting holes on the top is incorrect.
    Reason: Cold air is denser than hot air or the air containing moisture is actually cool air and thus would settle at the bottom, while the hot air would rise up so instead of ventilating you are actually making the process of heating or dehydrating slower.

    • @raythulhu5143
      @raythulhu5143 6 лет назад +3

      Heat is not important to the drying process, air flow is. That is what the heat source is for, to create a thermal current, to move the air. Every dehydrator/smoker has vents at the top.

    • @samurphy
      @samurphy 6 лет назад +1

      Correct, a heat source isn't even required. You can dehydrate food on a box fan with some paper filters at room temperature.

    Not to sound like I'm doing, but have you invested in Heat Shrink, It'll work better than just taping it up (I've used I on projects with my father doing wiring and he told me that Heat shrink (in his opinion) works better than electrical tape), it'll bond and hold the wires together and completely wrap around the Wire
