About drying neoprene boots

[Aerobics111]

I know you are not supposed to put them in a dryer. But how about a boot dryer like this?

It's warm but not hot. Can hold it with my hands when it's on. Drys out the boots really well and no nasty order afterwards. But I want to make sure I'm not degrading it over time.

Live in California so I can sun dry the boots most of the year except for winter.

UV from the sun is more detremental to neoprene than warm air from the dryer.

I like to apply nondeterministic qunatum rules to my diving boots.
As long as I don't smell them I can't be sure if there is a sentient fungus living in them, so now I no longer worry about how dry they are.

It's a well known fact that boots never dry, even in summer in Sydney! Good for keeping beers cold most of the year.

I use something similar but just moving air, no heat. Works like a charm.

I would say.. ehhh.. Somthing that moves air around would be better if you asked me. This looks like it just warms up.. poorly.. and kinda works

I’ve used ski boot and glove dryers to good effect.

It will be fine.
