I had some other color changing silica beads and they weren't really bringing the humidity down much... I put these in with some filament in a dryer box (which was turned off) and the beads alone brought the humidity level down to 0% within 48 hours!

A Keezer is a chest freezer set up for beer kegs or other similar things. As many beer aficionados probably know, Keezers often tend to ice up or end up with puddles of water in the bottom, which may cause rust or other problems. Keeping the humidity low inside helps to eliminate these issues.I poured the bottle of beads into a large nylon hops bag (fine mesh food straining bag) and keep it in the Keezer. It’s been running for about 7 months now, and everything is dry, clean, and looking great. No more problems with ice, rust, mold, and other things. And after 7 months, the beads are still orange, so they still have a long life ahead !

All the folks using these in closets and non-sealed containers are wasting their time. They are slow to absorb moisture and if there's any airflow at all, even a pinhole, that makes them useless. They work really well the first time but i have tried many times to get them to fully re-charge without success in a humid environment. New, the humidity in a sealed container is about 5-10% (very good). After they turn from orange to red, the lowest relative humidity is about 20% (not so great for long term storage). Recharging in the south (Texas gulf coast) never goes back to orange, just red. A note on "sealed containers" a surplus ammo can works great. Most of the plastic storage boxes, even with seals are not adequate for long-term storage in humid locations.

This is great! I've used two jugs between the additional desiccant containers I printed to fill all the empty space in the Bambu Labs AMS and in the bottom of the filament storage dry box I made with a silicone sealed plastic storage bin from Target and a couple wire drying racks.

It's color indicating silica. It keeps my stuff dry and I can easily see when it needs recharged. I found that if I spread the beads across a couple of cookie sheets it recharges much quicker than if it's stacked deep in a pan. The price is very competitive especially as you move to larger quantities if you have the need for bulk amounts. Leaving the review after using this for a couple of years because I decided to get some more!

Relative humidity in my dry box went way down a couple days after adding these beads. Beads outside the box turned green after a few days. Ones inside stayed orange. Seems to work!

The desiccant itself is very good, I just have to figure out how I can package it to work in smaller quantities.

I ran my ear pod pros through the washer and dryer without realizing. Found them several days later in the bottom of my laundry bag. Dead! I've been wanting to purchase these beads for quite some time (to keep my 3D printing filament free of moisture). After this little incident, I pulled the trigger. I submerged my ear pods and the case in a tupperware container full of the beads and let them sit for 3-4 days. The beads changed color, indicating that they absorbed moisture, so I fully charged them and they work! Couldn't be happier. Thought I was out a couple hundred dollars. Cannot recommend enough! :)
