Hey guys, are there any cons to using a dehumidifier, like can cards get damaged if the air is too dry?

You should be good if you have it set to somewhere around 50%.

If you’re only storing smaller items like cards I’d recommend getting a dry cabinet over a full room dehumidifier - especially if 50% is much higher or lower than what the room is usually at.
