Did we ever figure out how long it takes one of these to dry out 3926TB of data?
Also, if someone wanted to put 10 pounds of watermelon in this, what would the end result weigh after removing all 3926TB of moisture?
Beat me to it. Good job.
I wonder how many of these things woot must have bought. They show up at least once a week in various categories.
You have a dry sense of humor.
These have been showing up for YEARS on here and on Amazon around the same price. I don’t understand why they don’t just accept the fact that they should just be this price all the time.
My parents grow a lot of their food and when I offered them one they showed zero interest. Seems like a great way to throw away counter top space. I wonder how much storage space these are taking up for Amazon.
One TB of food is 8,796,093,022,208 morsels (“bits”)?
Any idea how much water I can dehydrate and in what period of time? I am trying to weigh the money, and time, to minimize my survival supplies over just toting my regular water around.
All jokes aside - I picked up one of these last year - I think i gave $149. Its only on the counter when in use - so the space isn’t an issue for me. After 10 years of using two Ronco (round stackable) units (no kidding, Ronco), I was pleased to get it. It’s on my counter as I write this - I just turned it off - cranked it up last night with 9.5 lbs of figs (halved). So far this year I’ve dried 23 lbs of cherries, two flats of mangoes, 18 lbs of figs, and 10 lbs of bananas. I’m picking up more bananas this evening. These are super dehydrators (if you’re into that kind of thing). I will move back to jerky once I’m stocked-up on dried fruit (still waiting on blueberries to come in). I use a weak citric acid bath on everything and depending on the fruit, might add bit of sodium metabisulfate and/or potassium metabisulfate to the bath. (learned about both while making wine). These are the Cadillac of food dehydrators (I didn’t say Lamborghini - or Ferrari - but a good, solid Cadillac). Having a good thermostat, 26 hour timer, and convection make using it a snap - no rotating trays, no forgetting to turn it off, and no guesswork on temp (I’ve checked it with a multi-probe thermometer set and it’s dead-on). No, I don’t work for Excalibur or Woot - im just genuinely pleased with the device. I would probably buy another right now but divorce attorneys are expensive and I prefer to avoid that possibility. (My wife doesn’t enjoy my hobbies - even if they turn out good product - she really hated the still).
