mxmarkargent asked: i think it was you who mentioned something here or on twitter about using a desiccant pack in your respirator to tackle moisture buildup, did you ever get to try that out and if so what were the results?

3liza:

it works excellently, i highly recommend it. buy a fresh pack of dessicant sachets from Amazon or somewhere and use double sided tape or blutack or whatever to stick them to the inside of the respirator in a place that’s out of the way of your mouth so they don’t bug you. carry extra packets if you go somewhere so you can swap them out if they get saturated. respiration volume and therefore mask wetness is usually roughly correlated to body size, small people usually will go through packets more slowly but that’s not a hard n fast rule. you can dry out wet packets in the oven and reuse them indefinitely if you want to.
