The van plus condensation

[sub55]

Sure im not the only one suffering at the moment but the van is running with condensation.
All my gear is at best damp , at worst dripping wet.
Dont suppose anyone 's ever come up with a sensible solution. Driving me nuts.

well i store most of my tools in the garage at home and it pretty cold and damp in the in the winter, we pay thousands for our tools then dump them in crap conditions :RpS_thumbdn: i was thinking of moving my best tools to one of the bedrooms now the kids are leaving home :RpS_thumbsup:

Van roof is dripping as well, just one of those things. Not much to get damaged with it as electrical stuff is all in their own boxes and only leave my overalls in the van in summertime.

Hello

I have also been thinking about this. Wouldnt 1 of those air flow thingys work that you see spinning on top of vans sometimes. Im sure they would send the moisture out?
