What would be the best RH and temperature to have considering the different weathers we have and considering the different room conditions that everybody has?

I believe an RH of 40-60% would be ideal...am not sure about the temp though.

meron ba dry box na hindi kailangan nakaplug-in sa outlet and is it any good?

Actually, meron dry box which is a simple air-tight plastic box. But you have to have moisture-absorber/dessicants which are either disposable or re-chargeable. Mas hustle because every time you see the hygrometer going beyond 60, you have to open the box and expose your equipment to high RH while re-charging the dessicant.

mga sirs, meron po akong medyo toink na question: paano gawin yun salt test kung nakakabit sa dry box yun hygrometer? lahat kasi na na google ko, hiwalay yun hygrometer, tapos linalagay sya sa isang airsealed container kasama yun moist salt. since nakakabit na talaga sa dry box yun hygrometer ko, ilalagay ko lang ba yun moist salt sa loob ng dry box?

pasensya na kung mababaw yun tanong ...

boss, wag mo gawin ang salt test sa loob ng drybox mo kse magkaka-humid sa loob baka ma-apektuhan ang gears mo. Dapat tanggal ang hygro sa box....hindi ba pwede tanggalin? Ano bang gamit mo na drybox? Baka yan yung dry cabinet na automatic de-kuryente. Sa pagkakaintindi ko ang salt test para lang dun sa mga DIY na dry-box. I maybe wrong...

Malamang natatanggal yun hygrometer, kailangan lang sigurong sungkitin

Pagtakot ka baka masira pag sinungkit, bili ka nalang ng isa pang hygrometer at yun ang salt test mo then compare nalang yun reading ng dalawa.

mga sir, I'm really new to cameras. And I've read in this post yung DIY dry box. I just want to ask kung san nakakabili ng affordable pero reliable na hygrometer sa ngayon? Meron na kasi ako nung 10L na Lock & Lock and silica gels. Salamat

Sir pano ba pababain ang RH? Kasi meron na ko silica gel sa loob(isang container na nasa 250ML), tapos na try ko na din sya iinit sa kaldero para ma recharge. Tapos nasa 75 pataas pa rin ang RH ko.

Dapat makita mong mag-pull down yung RH in about a day lang...

Hi guys, ok lang ba yung humidity level ng drybox ko @ 25 - 30 RH? kasi dati nasa 40-60 yung ideal diba? kasi dati isang demudifier(eto yung nabibili sa blade nasa 88php 4 pcs) saka 3 pieces mayer silica gel. sobra ba yung demudifier na lagay ko? concern ko lang masama ba sa gear ko sobrang humid sa loob?

I understand ang ideal is 40-60% pag masyadong dry nakakasama din sa gears natin
