What do you guys use to dry your boards after UC?

Hi.

I'm thinking of getting a convection fan mini toaster oven for drying boards after UltraSonic. Just wondering what you guys use?

They go right into my normal oven for 10 min. set at 130C.

I pour alcohol over it to displace the water, let the alcohol evaporate then into the oven for 30 minutes at 100c

I was more leaning toward what oven you use really. I'm looking for something small and I thought a fan assisted one would do better to spread the heat and blow away condensation.

I put it in a container of 99% alcohol, then I let it sit in the air filter for 10-20 minutes, then into some kmart oven at 250f for half an hour.

So no fan assist then?... Just a basic oven.

I was thinking of an oven that I can use for boards and also slap an Arduino on and use for reflow on project prototypes.

Only set it to around 100C please don't actually use the reflow temperatures >.<

Yh, reflow just for projects.

i use a 50L oven that is fan assisted, i modded it with a PID/SSR. No real reason to mod it though.
