N.E.: I use silica gel beads for a BUNCH of different projects. Basically its use case boils down to this:
1) is this item something that I don't want to ever get wet from ambient humidity?
2) is this item currently wet but I need it to be dry and can't use normal drying methods?
If the answer is yes to either of those, using silica gel beads is a good idea. If I'm putting books, comics, or cards in long term storage, for example, I throw a few packets for beads into a plastic tub, put the items in there and do my best to seal up the tub. Same goes for electronics, ammo, weapons, dry foods, etc.
Best part is it's reusable! Over time it will pull moisture out of the air and change colors. After that you just bake it for a bit to dry it out, and it's good to go!

ChicagoGuy: There are a lot of options on Amazon (and other places) for dessicant packs. I have researched all of them.
This product is the best value if you need a large volume of dessicant in bulk. But you are going to have to put it into some type of container unlike a lot of the pre-made options, which are much more expensive for the volume of dessicant.
If you look on this site for other products, you will find a lot of reviews wherein they say that the product does not recharge (i.e. when you reheat the product to dry it out, it doesn't dry out and work a second time.) I can definitely say I have recharged this product and it was ready to use again after about 10 minutes at 200 degrees in an oven. (I think the actual product directions said to bake it longer, but that was not necessary. It turned back blue in about 10 min.)
