<p>[QUOTE="Stevearino, post: 3790170, member: 74571"]Thanks everyone. I experimented last evening but our oven doesn't have a setting below 170. So after she was done making something and had turned it off, I put both packets and canisters, on separate pans, in when the oven may have been about 300 degrees. I didn't leave the door open and forgot to weigh the packets first. Took them out this morning and two of the couple of dozen canisters had melted. No obvious charring of the packets.</p><p><br /></p><p>But I get what you are saying, [USER=112]@GDJMSP[/USER], and what others have said. I can afford desiccant units, in fact I have bought several and used them in the past. I just wanted to know what would happen. I have a shoebox full of packets now that may or may not be effective. Maybe I'll throw them in a couple of my tool drawers.</p><p><br /></p><p>Steve[ATTACH=full]1012418[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
