Silica Gel Desiccants 2-1/4 x 1 1/2 Inches - 25 Silica Gel Packets of 10 Grams Each by Dry-Packs

I got these desiccant packs to use in my cigar humidor. If, like me, you live in a very humid state like Florida, during the summer months you might have to deal with excessive humidity in your humidor. It obviously depends also on how much you use AC and what is the humidity inside the house. These desiccant packs work like a charm to reduce the humidity inside the humidor, one or two packs are plenty for a 100 count humidor. If you use them keep an eye on the hygrometer though, because you can easily end up with too low humidity.Must be said I now solved the issue by having a dehumidifier running inside the house along with the AC so I no longer need to use them to lower the humidity in my humidor, but these packs have a lot of other uses. For example if you harvest herbs and spices like oregano, rosemary, etc, and don't have a proper set up to dry them, using one of these packs in a mason jar with dry the herbs quickly and effectively.

These silica gels work terrifically! Put them in all places, including my purses. They are a must in HUMID climates. Buy these all the time and always give a FIVE STAR rating.

These little packets are great. I drop a few in each tackle box to help prevent rust. Although I have not tried the Flambeau Zerust tabs which most fisherman use, these packets have worked great for me. They are much cheaper than the other options and I change them out about mid season. This still keeps my 2 year cost significantly less than the other options. They are not perfect, I do sometimes get small spots of rust on some of my tackle, but for the cost, I'm going to keep rolling with it. Get ya some and... stay dry.P.S. I also put one in each reel pouch when I store my reels in the off-season. Never had rust on a reel since I started doing this and since they are flexible bags, they fit in all of the pouches I have.

It's what I needed

I regularly use silica gel desiccant packets for work, and at home. However, I've found the quality of both the desiccant granules and the packet can vary pretty widely. Most packets I get use decent granules, absorbing a good amount of moisture, but every so often I'd get a set that didn't pull well. As for the packet material, a lot of packets I've gotten use a cheap paper that can inhibit absorption or won't last after just a few uses.These ULINE 10g silica gel packets perform very well, and the packet material is good quality. I've reused several packets so far, and they're still good as new. I'm happy I was able to get "the good stuff," but at a bargain price. I'll be sure to order more of these ULINE desiccant packets!

These desiccant packets are so useful! I'm sure we all constantly get bombarded with the tiny desiccant packs that are inside vitamin/supplement bottles, shoe boxes, etc. The larger size of these packets offer so many more options though. One Christmas some years back, we opened boxes of treasured handmade and antique ornaments only to find that one box of them were badly mildewed. With great care, we were able to save some of the ornaments...but there were valuable antique glittered paperboard houses that could not be salvaged. The basement dehumidifier that we normally ran through the summer had been on the blink so too much moisture had gotten into some of the boxes (as we found out some months later). Even with the basement dehumidifier on during soggy summers, I now tuck a desiccant packet inside each large plastic storage box of decorations. I also put packets inside boxes of art work, old storybooks and toys, and other memorabilia from our's and our children's childhoods. I keep a desiccant pack inside boxes of tools in the garage to keep them from rusting when they're not in use. It's an inexpensive way to avoid facing later disappointment over ruined treasures!I see that some folks have given a low rating because the packets they received were of different dimensions than listed (although of same total weight). While I'm sure there may be uses that someone might have that required an exact fit, for most uses it wouldn't really matter if the measurements were different (oblong vs square, etc) as long as the overall size/weight were consistent.

Used it places you don't want moisture to collect.

I got these last year and loved them. Re-ordered again this year, presumably the same exact product. Apparently last year's product wasn't available, because A. shipped me a substitute product. Different size...not the size I wanted. Also, the package last year was papery, and nice and porous. This substitute one has more of a plastic-y covering that doesn't seem porous enough to absorb moisture. Whatever. I have been through this aggravation before with A. Just wish they would stop sending out substitutes. When I order something that isn't in stock, you should just notify me that it's not available and ask if I want a substitution. This just was not worth the trouble calling A., sending the product back, etc. just for ten bucks. So I'm keeping them and hoping that they work. This is A.'s evil plan, I'm sure. But quit it. It's so annoying.

I purchased them to store baby products (clothes, car seats, swings, playpen etc) until we had our second child and needed all those items again.I stored all items away in 2021 using plastic bins or plastic storage bags and threw these in.Fast forward to November 2023, I just unpacked all items and these packs worked perfectly! All items stored are still in perfect and dry condition.I want to add that we live in a place where winters hit -40 Celsius and summers are +30 and basements can get damp.I definitely recommend these for long term storage usage.

വളരെ നല്ലത്

Es buen producto sólo que para el precio son pequeñas. Deberían ser un poco más grandes como lo doble en tamaño y con el empaque de la foto publicada

Good.

Awesome, these work great to keep my photography gear free of moisture. I keep some in my pelican cases and check them regularly. I also keep extras sealed in ziplock bags in case I need to dry something out like a film changing tent. Great price and these are a great size. They're still small enough to fit most places easily but they're larger than your typical desiccant.
