Q: 1. is the glass door shatter/theft-proof or is it just regular glass that can be easily smashed?

A: The glass on the Ruggard EDC-80L Electronic Dry Cabinet (80L, Black) though of high durable quality, is not theft-proof.

Q: 2. Which size is best for storing 1-2 laptops (13 ; can be stacked) and 1-2 non-full frame SLRs?

A: I would recommend the 80L, as access is better, and you may want to put lenses in also. I can fit a 600mm f4 (old version) and a 300-500mm, along with 2 bodies and multiple smaller lenses. Could put your bodies and 13 laptops on the top shelf.

Q: 3. What mean the blinking blue drops? Does it stop blinking?

A: The blinking blue water droplet means that the unit is attempting reach the target humidity. For example if you set it at 40 rH then the LCD will have the flashing droplet until it reached the set humidity, and will turn off once it is reached.

Q: 4. what temp should i keep it at?

A: You cannot control the temperature inside the Ruggard Electronic Dry Cabinet (30L), B&H # RUEDC30L. The unit simply allows the unit to display the current temperature in either Fahrenheit or Celcius, but you cannot control the temperature. The instruction manual comes with a guide for recommended ranges of humidity depending on the type of items you plan to store inside the cabinet. While you cannot control temperature, you can control the cabinet's humidity level.

Q: 5. What is the difference between the buffered and unbuffered Archival Methods tissue?

A: Buffered tissue has a buffering agent (usually calcium carbonate) added to the paper pulp during the paper making process to increase the pH level of the paper and make it more alkaline. By increasing the pH of the paper, it becomes non-acidic, and assists in neutralizing other acids in the environment that may make the paper or tissue become acidic over time. As acids can destroy photographic prints over time, buffered paper is preferred for most photographic prints. Un-buffered paper is paper that has not been altered, and is typically recommended for archival storage of protein-based materials, which are often materials that come from animals, such as leather, wool, silk, feathers, horsehair, pearls, etc., but can also include cyanotype prints and blueprints to prevent them from fading.

Q: 6. Is there a better solution? General Comment - perhaps a better solution... I believe that consistent humidity and temperature levels are important, so here’s my suggestion: use a good dehumidifier(s) in your home (Eg, I use a newer model GE that is energy star rated), which does a great job of keeping the ambient humidity around 38%. This has lots of benefits, including reducing the strain of an HVAC system and keeping the system and duct work relatively moisture free. Then buy a good Gun Safe (AMSEC is a good brand, but there are many) with a dial lock (avoid electronic locks which can fail...). A good safe will have a power outlet inside which you can connect a dehumidifying rod to and keep a humidity gauge inside. A fire rated safe is also recommended; minimum of 60 minutes. Store all your most important valuables, including video gear, wills, passwords book, etc inside and sleep well at night. Gun safes are affordable and come in lots of sizes. You’ll want to pay a reputable firm to deliver and install the safe. I’ve also read that when taking video gear outside, if there’s a big difference in temperature/humidity, that placing the gear in a sealed bag to allow the gear to come to a matching temperature sans condensation is recommended. I’d love to read anyone’s thoughts or experiences along these lines...always looking for best practices. Cheers. Chad K.

A: While the solutions you list above may also work, unfortunately, we do not offer any of the other solutions, and the Ruggard Electronic Dry Cabinet (50L) would be an option we carry that would be compatible and would maintain the temperature/humidity control to the equipment inside the unit. It is true that moving from indoors to outdoors when there is a large difference in temperature/humidity can cause condensation to form on your equipment, and keeping the item in a sealed plastic bag while the inside/outside temperatures equalize would reduce the condensation occurrence on your equipment.

Q: 7. Will this stop the white chalky mess growing on old rubber parts, like on Nikon D800s from a decade ago?

A: Storing your gear on the Ruggard EDC-50L-WO Electronic Dry Cabinet (50L, Weathered Oak) will prevent any problems caused by humidity.

Q: 8. How much weight can the adjustable shelf support?

A: While a load capacity on the adjustable shelf for the EDC-30L is not publish, it could easily hold 3 lenses or a camera body up to 5-6 lbs.

Q: 9. What is the interior dimensions of this 120 l unit?

A: The interior dimensions are; depth 13.5" width 14" height 34.5"

Q: 10. Can this cabinet be secured to the wall or floor?
