Note: Our comments regarding the unit’s moisture removal rate, its value, and situations in which we recommend its use still apply. Its leak-proof properties ensure that you do not have to worry about water spillage in your bag or around your house.

So, in summary, we recommend the E-333 over the E-500 unless you absolutely value the E-500′s larger capacity over anything else.

We would go as far as saying that this type of device (a rechargeable desiccant dehumidifier) should not be used in any space in which you can actually feel humidity. It has a minimalistic feel because of its small size and can fit in many small spaces within your home. Secondly, the E-500 adsorbs the same quantity of moisture as its capacity (6 to 8 ounces) in 4 to 8 weeks. Note that since the recharge process involves the liberation of moisture you’ll want to recharge the device outside or in a well ventilated indoor space such as a garage or utility room, not the room or space that you’re trying to dehumidify.

Hot shower steam without a ventilation system leaves walls vulnerable to long-term damage from excess moisture, or worse, eventual mold. Over time, our damp bathroom had started to get visible water damage on the walls from condensation, so we decided to try Eva-dry’s Edv-1100 Electric Petite Dehumidifier to see if it could stand up to the moisture. Although the aluminum plate inside the E500 is very thin it’s nearly the size of the housing draws 26 watts.

The warranty will no longer be valid if the product has been tampered with, taken apart, or repaired by anyone other than Eva-Dry. The EDV-4000 has a greater absorption rate than Peltier technology and works in the widest temperature range of all our electrical dehumidifiers. Instead, it should only be used in spaces in which you can only smell (odors) and/or see (mold or mildew) the effects of humidity.The major difference between both DampRid products and the E-333 (and similar products) is the fact that the former cannot be recharged (they’re disposable) while the latter can be recharged and reused for up to 10 years. The manufacturer claims the average noise output for all thermo-electric dehumidifiers they tested was 53. After the dehumidifier is fully charged, you can comfortably use it for 30 to 40 days before recharging it. However, we did not like that we were not able to remove the lid entirely to clean the tank completely. If you are looking for a quick-fix for a moderately damp room, then the Eva-Dry Petite Dehumidifier could be a good remedy.
