Just bought a dehumidifier to keep the man cave dry, its roof and construction is good, however with high winds and rain a small amount gets under the door, with no ventilation this just wick's into the air and makes all my stuff damp.
Got a desiccant type machine which work down to 1c, whereas the cheaper compressor machines only really work down to about 10c, and even then, they aren't efficient at their task as they tend to ice up. Hopefully it can keep the moisture at bay, currently never goes below 85% humidity in there which is not good for anything.
Also a massive 4hp/200L/18-20ccm compressor, was going cheap despite being new. However, was a bit dense when it comes to power needs, its single phase (yeay?) but means it draws upto 40a, which is tricky as consumer unit in that building has a peak of 62a, but that includes a bunch of other stuff.
