Has anybody used one of these mini "dehumidifiers" to dry out filament as a substitute for buying a bunch of the desiccant beads? My filament seems OK, but I could do better to keep it dry.

I've used up my filament fast enough to not have to dry it, but if you're storing it in a decently sealed box with this thing or desiccant, what happens that the filament would need to be dried in a dehydrator?
