## Overview

The Lockdown Golden Rod Dehumidifier is a compact, vermiculite-filled heating rod designed to prevent moisture buildup inside gun safes by gently warming the air. Available in multiple sizes and powered by a 110-120V AC plug with a 6-foot cord, it protects up to 200 cubic feet of space, effectively preventing rust and condensation. Made in the USA and backed by a 1-year warranty, it’s the essential moisture defense for any serious firearm owner.

## Description

The Golden Rod Dehumidifier works by slightly increasing the air temperature inside the gun safe or other enclosure. This allows the warm air to circulate throughout the safe on a continual basis, thus eliminating humidity, mildew, and condensation. All of which are dangerous to your expensive firearm collection. Made in the USA.

Review: It doesn’t “dehumidify”, it prevents condensation - So far, so good. The AC plug is removable, to make it easier to get the power cord through the safe’s access hole. The metal tube heats up to a temperature that feels about like that of a hot plate pulled immediately out of a dishwasher’s drying cycle. Due to it being hot to the touch, I like that it was supplied with two plastic , snap on style brackets. These brackets can be used for mounting the metal tube to the safe’s wall, or they can be used as “feet” that keep the hot tube off your safe’s floor. Per the directions, this “dehumidifier” is designed to be used horizontally, ideally at the lowest part of your safe. This is NOT a dehumidifier, in the technical sense of the word. This device warms the interior of your safe, slightly, which prevents condensation from forming on the safes interior metal walls and metal gun parts. Think of it like this, a cold can of beer will “sweat”, if it’s colder than the surrounding air. A hot beverage, warmer than the surrounding air temp will not. This product would likely work even better, when paired with desiccant, as a fail safe. The desiccant actually does dehumidify. Moisture won’t condense on the inside of your safe if there isn’t any. Just like moisture that’s present in the air is less likely to condense on surfaces that are warmer than the surrounding air . Overall, it looks to be a great value for the money, as long as it doesn’t break

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the functional difference between this and the cheaper black version?**
A: The main characteristic difference that I've been able to figure out (besides the color***) is that the GoldenRod units are higher wattage heaters.  

Take a look at the chart I made below, where I've compiled heating wattage information for different length rods from Lockdown, and also another manufacturer, SnapSafe, all available on Amazon.  Hope this helps!  :^)

Wattage and Price Charting for Different Size Rods							
							
Description of Rod				       Power	Cost (Amzn)		
Lockdown "Dehumidifier Rod," 12"		8 W	        $17 		  <-- Black Rod
Lockdown "Dehumidifier Rod," 18"		12 W	$26.22 		  <-- Black Rod
							
Lockdown GoldenRod, 12"				 8 W 	$33 		
Lockdown GoldenRod, 18"				18 W	$38 		
Lockdown GoldenRod, 24"				25 W	$39 		
Lockdown GoldenRod, 36"				38 W	$44 		
							
SnapSafe Dehumidifier Rod, 12"			7 W	        $15.29 		
SnapSafe Dehumidifier Rod, 18"			10 W	$17.50 		
SnapSafe Dehumidifier Rod, 24"			12 W	$16.54 		


*** The color and reflectivity of the surface makes a small amount of difference for emittance (i.e. - heat radiating efficiency) - matte, less reflective black objects radiate somewhat better than more reflective gold).

**Q: What does it do with the humidity it takes out of the air?**
A: The Heat keeps humidity from building up by stabilizing the temp inside the safe. So there is no humidity taken out of the air, it just prevents it. Works well.

**Q: Does anyone know the surface temperature**
A: I used a temperature “gun” with a red laser dot:  116 degrees Fahrenheit pointed directly on the gold tube.  Internal safe temperature is 75.  Just installed the 18” model yesterday, September 26, 2020.

**Q: What size for 24cu feet safe?**
A: I have the 18" model in a nearly 12 cubic feet gun safe (24 long gun capacity) and it has done fine thus.

Excellent quality! USA made. 5 stars!!! Works perfectly!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Golden Rod a must for a Gun Safe
*by R***N on April 12, 2014*

I have it in a safe in a cold garage during winters and it works very well keeping temperature warmer then outside temperature by about average of 9 degrees. No rust on guns at all. I also put portable condensate containers in safe made by Remington, but the golden rod keeps everything warm which is the key to control. Easy to install, doesn't get in the way, low on power, nice looking, works like a charm, and would buy another if needed. When it comes to my guns I get what it takes to keep them from rusting and cost is not a factor. This is the trick. By the way I have a 80 gun safe and it keeps it warm, so I am sure it would keep a smaller safe warmer, but I don't know for sure. It more of a heater then a dehumidifier in my opinion but I will tell ya with a condensate Remington container and a golden rod you will be 100% protected, Buy it if you love your guns and don't want rust on the. I always put silicone spray on my guns and punch the bore with same and wipe them down, put them in safe and your over protected. By the way for you that don't know about silicone spray, it's sold at Wal Mart in the RV section or the auto department, You will use this silicone spray along with your Golden Rod and Remington condensate and you will have ZERO rust. I hope this helps from a true user of Golden Rod and gun lover.
