This same mechanism is how a dryer knows when the clothes are dry.

  >This same mechanism is how a dryer knows when the clothes are dry. I've never had a dryer where that feature actually worked. My newer samsung claims to have that, but the drying time still seems to just use the timer (even when using the sensor setting) and they clothes are almost never 100% dry when the timer runs out. I suspect maybe it'd work if the clothes got dry before the timer ran out, but the timer settings always seem to be just short of how long it'd take to dry a load.

    Heat pump driers are known not dry clothes 100% too.

    Usually for me it struggles if I'm mixing types of cloth. If there's one pair of denim jeans it'll stop when everything else is dry, but the denim isn't.
