Hi Anthony,

You can dehydrate peppers:

- in a very low oven with the door ajar, overnight
- on a plate on a sunny window sill, about two weeks [If you have low
  humidity they won't rot or mold. Thin peppers are fine whole; thick
  fleshy ones can be sliced in half first.]
- in an oven with the 25 watt bulb replaced with a 100 watt one
- in a gas oven over the pilot light
- in a car with the windows rolled up on a sunny day [2-3 days where I
  live]
- in a make shift dehydrator consisting of a cardboard box, a light bulb
  and a cake cooling rack.

None of these are expensive set-ups.
