Hi everybody? I live in Norway and I find it really difficult to buy color changing silica gel balls here. I want to use it to keep and control better my filament rolls while they are stored and also to the AMS on my Bambu X1C. The only alternative I found is on Aliexpress, just a 500gr bottle. I was wondering if anybody else out there has any better alternative.

Some cat litter fillers are made from silica gel. You can buy it in a pet store.

Yeah, I got one of those, but I was looking for the reusable ones that change color from orange to green. Thank you anyway
