What would you recommend for a dehumidifer to place inside a safe to prevent moisture buildup? Dont believe there is a problem but dont want to find out the hardway, usually open it up at least one a month to head out to the range.

Use a re-chargeable silica gel, such as one made by Hydrosorbent Dehumidifiers (http://www.dehumidify.com) and a vapor barrier called metal safe made by E&T Kointainer (http://www.vcoins.com/us/kointainer/store/info.asp). Often, these items are sold by coin supply dealers for use in the safes of coin collectors.

Get one of those little stick heaters that keep the temperature a few degrees warmer than the outside of the safe if there is a plug inside the safe. If your safe is in the basement like mine, get a dehumidifier for the whole basement. Its good for the air quality inside your home that way also.

I run a goldenrod and a mini-dehumidifier since I have electrical in my safe. I have to empty the dehumidifier about once every 1.5 weeks depending on the temps.

An even easier to use rechargable dessicant are those made by Eva-Dry. It will go for a month or more absorbing humidity, then a quick overnight charge in a standard 110 outlet will evaporate all the absorbed moisture making it good to go again. I run one of the large sized ones in my safe along with a goldenrod and i never see humidity rise above 50% despite the outside ambient level and mine is kept in an area of the house where humidity is a concern.

I use the Remington one you can buy at dicks

Golden Rod!!
