Is anyone aware of a product (or products) that dehumidifies w/o electrical hookup (either external AC or internal battery). I would like to have dehumidification 'peace of mind' after our pod has been winterized and is riding out the winter (under cover) in storage. Thanks.

I've used this at my camp in a cabin that has no power. How good it is I can't say...it does remove moisture, but nothing like a powered dehumidifier.

Ok tried 3 times to post link- doesn't show for some reason, here it is in plain text

A desiccant like DampRid or Dry-Z-Air is your best best. Preferably something calcium chloride-based which is environmentally friendly (and non-poisonous like silica gel).
