wisedry 2 x 500 Gram [2.2 lbs] Rechargeable Silica Gel Car Dehumidifier, Microwave Fast Reactivated Desiccant Packets Large for Safes Closet Basement Garage Storage Moisture Absorber Bag Reusable

I live in Florida where tools go to die a rusty death. I recently bought another product, Simichrone Polish, along with the dessicant in an effort to keep my expensive jewelry tools in as good shape as possible. I am more than pleased with both of these purchases. The dessicant came as two large pouches. The instructions for when to re-charge (dry in the oven or microwave) are written right on the bags, which makes is really easy to figure out when they need to be dried out to keep them working. I plan to buy more. I placed one of them under the large plastic covering I keep over my rolling mill and the other I put into a large drawer where I placed as many of my tools as would fit so they will all stay protected from the high humidity we experience here in Florida. Great purchase, I will likely buy at least one more set of these bags.

This will help keep moisture down

I put each of these in a large plastic bin that I use to store 3D printer filament. Each one has a humidity meter and at the start, they read 30%. Within a couple of hours, the bins with the Wisedry bags read 10%. I really appreciated the included sheet that told how to weigh the bags to determine when they should be recharged, and it gave instructions for doing this in a microwave, oven or leaving on a radiator (should you have one of those.)

I tested one in the closet vs an area that has humidity. Forgot about it for two days. Came back and the one at the humidity area definitely absorbed something as it was much heavier than the closet one. I wish it had a way to indicate it was full like the smaller packages. Im just guessing when it is full; resetting it in the microwave is also a guess as to when it is done. Thats the only reason i docked one star.

Read the directions package came apart in microwave

I used these to absorb moisture and decided to recharge once the bags gained 120 grams in weight. I put bag on plate in 700 watt microwave for 7 minutes, no problem. Shook it and flipped the bag over and microwaved it for 7 more minutes. When I went to get the bag off the plate it disintegrated, leaving a huge mess in my kitchen. At $10 a bag, I expected this to last much longer. The fragile bag material makes this a not-so-great purchase. Now Im wondering if Amazon will take back this mess. Update: I received a replacement order unexpectedly after my initial review. Apparently this company really stands by its products. Word to the wise, recharge them in an oven so as to avoid superheating them. Rating changed from 1 star to 5.

Ive had these in my truck for weeks now, havent had to recharge them yet. I think the sun does a pretty good job. Has significantly reduced condensation.

Used in a dry box for 3D printer filament. Working well. Havent quite reached saturation point yet so havent had to dry it yet, but that time is coming soon. Hopefully I dont have microwave issues like a few people have had (though may go for the oven method or try putting it in one of my 3D filament dryers. Will report back if any issues. But so far, its working great.

I love this product! I wish I couldve only bought one for $10, rather than two for $20, though; oh, well. My car gets moisture inside the windows when the weather changes, so I keep one of these under the seat (in a plastic dish), and voila! The moisture is gone! Ive already recommended this to two other people.

Works very well inside my car.
