Ways to lower humidity without drilling holes?

Since the computer fans are usb cords, I figured I can plug it into the usb-to-outlet thingies and it would work. And if it doesn't... Well, I'm screwed and will find another way. =P

That's true about the vibration, so I might just mount it to the wall behind the enclosure then. I was honestly just going to scotch tape it down to either the back of the cage or the wall, since nobody is going to see it. Nothing fancy, as I'm not handy at all.

What's the ambient temperature in the enclosure?

79~82 ambient gradient around, for my GTP.

The fan probably needs around close to 5 volts? Most USB wall chargers are not close to that.

Aw fiddlesticks, it is 5 volts. Any idea how to connect it to a wall outlet in some way? It's at least 6 feet away from the nearest computer.

You need to fin a "power supply" that puts out 5 volts. Check with your local computer store.
Also need to know how many amps the fan pulls.

I'm not sure if there are any toxicity concerns, but wondering if a desiccant like silica gel would help. Here's an example:

Update on the mini fans- taped the fan to the back of the enclosure and just plugged the usb it into a usb to outlet (like the iphone charger) and it works! I don't know if this is damaging to the fan or something though, but it seems alright. I also put it on a timer outlet, so that the fan blows for 30 minutes every few hours instead of all day.

I doubt it will damage the fan, it should be fine.

Phew, good!

The fans helped a lot. The humidity is hanging around 70%~75% when the fans are on now. All is well. :P
