Could you elaborate on the setup for us? The fan has a heater element? I have a fridge out the back that needs repurposing!!

Biltong doesn’t need heat to dry, just good airflow and low humidity.
So ive added a light at the bottom of the door that will gently heat and create a convection current and the extraction fan up top to suck the air out.
The fan doesn’t have any heat source
