Hi all,

Not sure if this is the correct thread. I saw the discussion about dry cabinet here, so just try my luck to see if anyone facing the same issue as mine.

I've been using the fully digital dry cabinet for more than a year, it has been ok until yesterday the %RH shot up to 50-51 and remains there. The cabinet was set to 45% since the day I bought it and usually the reading was around 44-45%. I tried power off the unit, and on it back after a few minutes. It reads 60% when I initially turned on, and it drop to 50-51% and remains there again although the setting still in 45%.

I open the box to check the rubber seal to see if there is any leak and I couldn't see if there is any. However when i close the box, it reads 70% which is normal. After awhile the reading drops to 58-59%. The problem is after a few hours, it still reading 58-59% RH.

The drying indicator light doesn't turn off anymore as it unable to reach the desired RH.

Not sure what problem with it. Anyone with similar experience?

Yup, there is at least 2inch spaces from the wall, and it was fine for whole year until recently.

Anyway, I guess I've temporarily fix it. What I did was, open up the drying unit, and found out that the sink in the drying unit was filled up with water. Using sponge and cotton buds to soak up the water, and turn it on again. Within an hour, it drops from 70 to 45. Not sure how long it would last before the sink was filled up again. I hope it could stand up to a year before I need to repeat the steps above again.

I guess this drybox requires regular service and maintenance as well..
