Tonight, I am going to make my very own drybox! (or buy it one part at a time!)
If you have your own digital SLR and some lenses, you would think of ways to protect your investment.
Where will you put your gadgets then?
Since I have no budget for those drybox with dehumidifiers, I opted to make my own drybox!
1) I bought a HPL500 locknlock airtight container for 549.75 pesos (roughly 11.31 US dollars)
2) I am going to buy Silica Gel later.
Silica gel can adsorb about 40 percent of its weight in moisture and can take the relative humidity in a closed container down to about 40 percent. Once saturated, you can drive the moisture off and reuse silica gel by heating it above 300 degrees F (150 C).
Voila!!! My own drybox with wheels! :p
