Hi folks,
We're full time in cold weather, moisture is a problem in winter. In the past we've used Damprid jugs in several places around the camper and the hanging bags in the closets. The Damprid helped but there was a constant problem of keeping the jugs from getting knocked over.
I recently found Eva-Dry dehumidfiers on the web.
Has anyone used them?
Are you satisfied with the performance?

I'm thinking we will need a couple EV-1100 and maybe a few E-500. The small size seems great since we will have to store them in warm weather.
Thank you for your help.

Although dated, this previous thread discusses the product.

We have a small Eva-Dry unit in the bedroom and we are satisfied with it. We use a larger SOLEUSair unit in the living area that we are thoroughly pleased with (SOLEUSair CFM-40E portable dehumidifier). Both units keep the inside humidity at 35-45. If you keep it too dry damage to wood cabinets can occur.

we have three
two pint sized and one quart
less than 1 amp drawn when in use
QUIET
worked very well in combination of using vent fans during a shower and the like
we used to have a huge mechanical compressor one that was loud and pulled 12014 amps when running


well worth dollars spent

We have had an Eva-Dry 2200 since the summer of 2009. After about a year the fan started making noises typical of a fan bearing failing. Opened it up and replaced the fan with a new 92mm computer fan and it works perfectly again.

i meant 10-12 amps for the old one
i do vacuum the inlets grill about every three days because we have two dogs and for some reason the fur really likes the eva dry

i did purchase ours direct from the company and saved a few dollars,
