Good afternoon Gentleman,
I recently took delivery on my gun safe and was curious about the best dehumidifier option for it. It is approximately 19 cubic feet and I am able to run power to it. It is in the closet which is adjacent to my bathroom, so I'm worried about steam from the shower getting to the inside over time (this might not be an issue at all, but it was one thing I had thought of). I'm not trying to skimp out on protection for it, but I don't want to spend more than is necessary ($20-$30?). From what I can see, I have three main options:
1) A plug-in dehumidifier rod, which seems to be the same principal as the larger round thing that heats up that I put in my boat
during the winter
2) The renewable dehumidifier that has the Silica Gel inside of it, and when it maxes out, you plug it into the wall overnight and let it
dry out.
3) Get the little packets of that stuff we are not supposed to eat that come in beef jerky and other random things I get mailed to me
by my company that come straight from China (Silica Gel?) and place them all around the safe
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!
