A standard dryer running on 120v is going to be incredibly inefficient. You'll be looking of drying times in the 4-5 hour range per load.
So let us look outside the box at solutions used by people living off the grid or in RV's. - the Spin Dryer.
A spin dryer simply ramps up the spin cycle of a washing machine. A typical washer spins at 300-600 RPM, a spin dryer goes in the 1800-3000 RPM. It will remove just about all water from your wash and allow for a dryer to be done in just a short time or complete air drying in under an hour (even a hairdryer will finish the job in a few minutes).
The units are small and run off minimal power.
