I run an electric unit when not on board. In mild, non humid climates like so-cal I was curious if others are, or are not using these. Thanks.

I use one of the portable West Marine units. I've never had an issue, it was inexpensive and is easy to store when underway.

I use these year round and no power is required. The large containers seem to hold a lot of moisture and are disposable. Keep one near the fridge.

Alternately (if you have AC) , most on board AC systems have a humidity control setting. Just leave it on.
