analog cabinet setting guide-
1- set the dial at center. let the cabinet to stable for one day.
2- obtain the reading from the meter.
3- if reading is lower than ur desire range - reduce the power of the dry module ( turn the dial abit only).
4- if reading is higher than ur desire range - increase the power of the dry module ( turn the dial abit only).
5- repeat the process 1-4 until u happy the humidity level.

Note : need to be patient!! accuracy >+- 5 %
Note : pls note is normal the reading may drop futher after few days.
Advice : As the reading around 40 - 50%  consider ok already

Analog cabinet user
< 30% not ok
30 - 40 % - ok
35 - 45 % - ok
40 - 50 % - ok
45 - 55 % - ok
> 55% not ok

Hi Crownfish,

You are absolutely correct, this the correct way to set your analog (dial type) dry cabinet. User needs to be very patient, it will take a few hours (6-10) to stabilize. I took 3 days to set mine.

If you want a easier way to set then get the digital type because you set the dial at 45% and leave it for few hours and then you can straight away put in your lens. smile.gif

I have mine like that as well, I finally rip the white paper bag, and just put it like that.

Another alternative way is to buy from the camera shop. I last purchase mine at Mid Valley at RM 15 per bag. (it is a see through type).

Add on info. I use my dry box to keep stuffs at home and use silica gels in my camera bags.
