My fishing buddy uses one, in his dry(ish) basement. Pulled out some rusty guns to show me. I've been hesitant ever since.
I think the "ish" is what got him. Those just give you a little extra margin. They arent a panacea for all conditions.
They work pretty good in my opinion.
How well do these work in a normal unsealed gun cabinet? Thanks
since they only heat and move air how do they reduce humidity? If they are in a sealed space where does the moisture in the air go ? Has anyone measured the air temperature inside and outside their safe when using a goldenrod? I am not implying that they don't keep guns from rusting but I don't understand how they can reduce humidity particularly if they are in a sealed container.
Thanks for all the input. The cabinet is just one of the cheaper metal cabinets. I was just curious if they were more designed for an actual gun safe that sealed up tighter.
Seems like this gets about a 50/50 review. What else is better for my situation? I see they have desiccant type dehumidifiers. Are these more effective or about the same?
