To get a nice dry keezer environment, it's not necessary to spend $20-40 bucks on an evadry. The internals are only silica gel and a heating element. Far cheaper to buy bulk silica gel in the form of the newly-marketed crystal cat litter, dump it in a sack (for instance, an old pillow case), and dry it out every month or two by sticking it the sun or an oven at 150-200 degrees for a few hours (make sure your sack is not a synthetic fabric if you take the latter route). The nice thing about this solution too is that if you get a spill, you can stick the sack of silica gel directly on it and it absorbs it within a minute or so. You can rinse off the sack and dry it in the same way as above. My wife picked up a 4lb sack of silica gel (this one) from WM for $4 dollars. 4lbs is considerably more silica than even the largest Evadry.
