Ruggard SG-DC1 overview
- 1Description
This 40 g Desiccant Silica Gel Pack from Ruggard is used to absorb moisture inside underwater camera and electronics housings and bags, in order to keep them as dry as possible to prevent rust, corrosion and other damage, as well as mildew, mold and foul odors. It protects 3 cubic ft of enclosed space. The dehumidifier gel is orange and turns white when it absorbs moisture. It is packaged in a metal tin that can be heated in an oven at 300°F for at least 3 hr, or until the color returns to the silica beads, to refresh the gel for reuse. The gel will turn orange again when it is ready.

I Like These Packs
I have multiple camera bags storing lenses and cameras . Due to a reasonably moist climate , I'd be worried about moisture effects on the lenses and equipment without a couple of these in each bag . Every 4 to 6 months when the color change indicates , I re-heat them in the oven for the designated time and temperature and they're good as new again - repeatedly over the years .I do like the plastic cased ones a bit more than the ones with the metal cases ; but both are good .

Works as designed
Seems to work as designed. I wish the small window used to observe the pellets was larger; it is difficult to determine the exact color (and with color the need for recharging) through the small window. Also, I bought one of these from Ruggard, and one from another manufacturer. Once removed from the manufacturer's packaging, the products were identical - can't tell them apart. But it does the job.

Works Very Good
I live by and shoot the Gulf of Mexico very frequently. I bought this to keep my camera dry while in my gear bag in very humid Florida weather. Does a great job and is reusable.

This is a “No Brainer” if your a sports shooter!
I can say I’m surprised on the negative “Expensive To Recycle” comments... I simply take advantage of Kitchen “Cooking” routines. When it’s time I just place it in the oven. When we cook that week, in the oven, we just preheat a little longer and leave it on until after we finish eating. It’s ready every time, and relatively inexpensive as getting the oven hot is the only high energy use and that needs done for cooking reasons! I use these in all of my Airtight and Waterproof hard cases.

Protect Your Photography Equipment and Firearms!
I use the silica gel packs to store my camera equipment and firearms. Both of these possessions required the lowest possible humility level to ensure they are protected. This product is recyclable! When the gel pack becomes saturated with moisture, the center indicator changes colors and the recycle process begins. Place the gel pack in the 300 degree oven for three hours, and it is ready to use again and again. Why would you send thousands of dollars on equipment and protect it with a $10.00 product? Excellent!
