I have a lot of camera and lens gear that needs protection. Review: Purchased in 2021. Review in 2023 - I purchased them to store baby products (clothes, car seats, swings, playpen etc) until we had our second child and needed all those items again. I stored all items away in 2021 using plastic bins or plastic storage bags and threw these in. Fast forward to November 2023, I just unpacked all items and these packs worked perfectly! All items stored are still in perfect and dry condition. I want to add that we live in a place where winters hit -40 Celsius and summers are +30 and basements can get damp. I definitely recommend these for long term storage usage. ## Features - Helps to keep moisture away from your valuable computers and equipment - Silica Gel can adsorb up to 40-percent of it's weight in moisture - Reduce condensation and Continues to absorb moisture in humid and damp conditions - Meets FDA specifications for food and drug products - Packets of 10gm protects 470 cubic inch ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003DKQB02 | | Additional Features | Manual | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Age range (description) | Adult | | Brand | Dry-Packs | | Brand Name | Dry-Packs | | Color | grey | | Container Type | Packet | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,471 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00818947013935 | | Included Components | no | | Item Dimensions | 10.2 x 15.2 x 7.6 centimeters | | Item Form | Packeted | | Item Nype Name | Absorbent Industries Dry-Packs Silica Gel in Cotton Dehumidifier Absorbs Moisture 10 Gram 25PK | | Item Volume | 470 Cubic Inches | | Item Weight | 227 g | | Manufacturer | Absorbent Industries | | Manufacturer Part Number | 10Gr.Cotton-25pk | | Material | Silica | | Material Type | Silica | | Model Name | Absorbent Industries Dry-Packs | | Model Number | 10GR.COTTON-25pk | | Number of Items | 25 | | Number of Packs | 25 | | Size | 25-Pack | | Special features | Manual | | UPC | 818947013935 | | Unit Count | 8.75 Ounce | | Unit count | 8.75 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Adult - **Brand:** Dry-Packs - **Number of Items:** 25 - **Special features:** Manual - **Unit count:** 8.75 Ounce ## Images ![Silica Gel Desiccants 2-1/4 x 1 1/2 Inches - 25 Silica Gel Packets of 10 Grams Each by Dry-Packs - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ioeH-avYL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Planning on using them in a DSLR camera bag, how often do they need to be replaced.
