A comment from a 3 year user [Posted on 2004-09-03] I have used this silica pack over and over again. The reason I am here now: I lost my last pack in Cocoa Beach on a location shoot. It was raining every day (in August), with lots of humidity. I kept my digital camera in a zip lock bag with this pack when I was not shooting. On the 6th and last night I put the pack in the oven for a half-hour at 300 degrees to dry out ( as I have done for years) and forgot to take it out of the over when I left. I am buying 3 more now. I believe this is an easy way to extend the life of my cameras.
nice n dry [Posted on 2007-01-03] I'd been looking for some reuseable silicagel for a while, and when I came across this on Amazon I figured it worth trying out, particularly since it is not all that expensive.
Well, the unit is nicely made - I have "recharged" the gel about 4 times now with no problems - just remember to use a glove or tongs to remove the tin from the oven and let it cool! Of course, this stuff is only as good as the weather-proofness of the space in which it's put, so I keep most of my digital camera gear in a Pelican case (actually, a LowePro camera bag that fits in the Pelican case) and slip this unit in there.
