    I use them also.
    In the truck, i will venture you'll be recharging them every few days, making them a good investment.

    I might have to check out the Eva Dry . . . right now, I just get those dessicant "tubs" from the dollar store and just swap them out occasionally. They seem to work pretty well up to this point. But if the Eva Dry lasts that long and at those prices, it would be better and more economical.

    If you're using dollar store stuff. Check out the crystallized / silicate kitty litter, like tidy cat. I use that tied in a sock in ammo cans.

    Or there's this place

    I like those Eva Dry units. I also use these sometimes, since they are smaller, esp. if I can find them on sale.
