Quite true but I was not thinking of adding much as the "peri-
peri" chile is quite hot to start with ;-) C. annuum may be
fine for bulk, I don't know.
I also believe the habanero flavour would be an advantage where
C. annuum would not. Nor would annuum add to the heat which was
the reason I suggested. YMMV ;-) Annuums are not my favourite
except in curries.
Guess work on my part as I have not tried it.
What is an advantage is removing the seeds from the dried chiles
as these make up the main component of the chile. Not easy to
do but a blender at lower speed will break up the thin skin
without breaking up the seeds. Sieve out the seeds. Might take
more than once through the blender.
