Our yearly average humidity is 87% but with this very cold wet winter it's been nearly a constant 100% for many months now and a few packages, most notably the HitToys "hangers" were beginning to show some early signs of warping, so I am nipping that!!!
I just don't want it too dry, or to change the environment to rapidly and cause stress on the nylon or neoprene gears from expanding/shrinkage and end up with a bunch of cracked gears...bottom line is I'm tiring to keep the BNIB looking BNIB, but I don't want to damage all the engines to do it...so I really need to find out the industry standards for recommended optimal temp/Hum conditions just for piece of mind.
