Humidity and Temperature in Gun Safe

[chadbag]

I believe I brought the humidity too low.

I don't think so. I think you may have brought it too low, too fast.

Here in Utah we normally have teen to twenties percent humidity. Only higher when it rains. I have no problems with wood stocks cracking, separating, etc. So low humidity ain't the problem by itself.

I'm in the process of buying my first real RSC. I currently have the $95 Walmart special cabinet. I am looking at either the Liberty Lincoln or Presidential 35. Yeah I know it isn't a real safe, but my budget is only about $2,000.

Question about humidifiers. I will be installing and bolting the safe into our master bedroom closet. The closet has its own A/C register. It has no power in it. Can I get away with the desiccant that you plug into the wall to recharge or should I put in a rod and run electrical into the master closet?
