Great post Diskdoctr. I tried the heat/cool method several weeks ago on a rainy night when the outside temp was ~75 degrees and the inside RH was 75%+. I used a small electric heater on the low setting (~630 watts, 5.3 amps). The method worked but the 30 amp breaker tripped several times. We had the AC/TV/VCR on and with the convertor were close to the max – plus on a suspected worn out campground breaker.
I was on a mission to buy a small dehumidifier not only for the summer time but those times during the fall when the RH builds due to showers/rain/etc. Maybe I’ll continue to try this method and run an extension cord to the electrical post. Part of the problem with me sometimes is “too much information”…..maybe hiding the Temp/RH meter would help.
