When the fan 22 is activated, the peripheral air can be pushed into sufficient contact with the desiccant 25 in the ventilating casing 21, then the desiccant 25 absorbs moisture in the air in a dry state until it is saturated, due to the exhaust of the fan 22. The speed and effect of the desiccant 25 moisture absorption can be accelerated. Further, in the reduction process in which the desiccant 25 is released into the air due to heating, the speed and effect of the reduction of the desiccant 25 can be accelerated by the action of the fan 22 to extract air. In this way, it is possible to overcome the problem of external dry or external wet internal drying existing in the prior art. A monitoring circuit can be set to monitor the charging and discharging of the rechargeable battery. When the rechargeable battery is overheated or exceeds the load, the charging circuit can be automatically cut off.

In addition, the fan 22 can be controlled by setting a steering panel (see FIG. 3), for example, changing the direction of rotation of the fan 22, and can be set to change the direction by timing, or to control the time when the fan 22 is turned on, for example, can be set to hourly.
