    Your dehumidifier is just silica gel with a fan in it, but they work really well, i also used to buy my silica gel on special at farmers, even though it comes in a pretty pink bag. Then i bought a truckload of it from one of my wholesalers.
    I tried to sell silica gel packs on the forum for $10/ kg but only sold a couple, now i sell it on Trademe for $15/100grams and it sells flat out, go figure
    Pour it onto some steel and see how bad it is tho, Got to make an insurance clam on one that split and leaked through my safe
