[Healeys] GoldenRod

I believe the heater you are referring to (Goldenrod) is normally used inside
of gun safes.  It's function laying on the bottom of the safe is to heat the
captured air near it's surface.  The heated air rises upward causing a
continuous flow to circulate as long as the safe remains unopened.  The flow
of air prevents entrained moisture from dropping out and causing rust to form.
It might do the same inside a car storage bag, but the internal volume of a
safe will be much less than that required to bag a Healey.  I do not think the
function is to dry the air.  Where can the moisture go when the safe is closed
or the car bag zipped?

  Hello Listers,
  I'm thinking of getting a product from California Car Cover called the
  GoldenRod.  It's a plug in device which is used inside a zip up car
  storage bag to lower the humidity inside the bag.  Anyone have any
  experience with this device?  Currently I'm using a few DampRid
  containers which work over time but I'd like something that works
  quicker here in cold, damp Michigan.  BTW, if you need to replace the
  active ingredient in a DampRid container just get a bag of calcium
  chloride ice melter and use it to refill the DampRid container.
  Any input will be appreciated.
  Dan
